I have read people have similar overheating problems.
My engine seems fine until left for 10 mins on tick over and then boils over through the expansion tank.
I have fitted a new radiator which remains cold all the time.
I fitted new water pump but nothing wrong with old one.
I removed thermostat hoping to give good flush through but still boils over.
I have read here that it could be simply air locked???
Also that cylinder head gasket maybe leaking or engine block is cracked.
Can anyone help?
It would be nice to think it was simply air locked. The engine has 100k miles and I bought car from new 1997. It's 1.9 engine.
