    Frothy coolant????

    I think it's more than just a new radiator mate.

      Beat me to it.

      My beer's got less head on it than that froth. In fact my beer head's probably alot better than yours "could" be...

        Youre doomed, doomed I say. Head gone, water jacket pressurised, and burst at the weakest point.

            ive just change the one in the mrs truck was a good one from RT tidy looking, will see how it goes/lasts, i reckon false economy to fit a second hand one? if you get yours repaired itll be about £40 plus vat plus a few days. next day for 150 your sorted.RT IMHO
            It's they're.

            It's frothy due to exhaust gasses in the coolant, how would it get frothy due to loss of coolant at the lowest point in the radiator?

              And a new 2.4 rad can be used to cool it.

                I do keep an eye on that parts list from time to time. Once I've qualified and got myself a decent job I'll no doubt be in touch!

                  I'm confident its not head as the head was done just over 2 years ago . The system isn't pressurising more than normal , and its not moving the needle above half way .
                  The froth is the last bit of water bubbling out and there's a nice puddle and trail up my road lol.
                  Also my rad was on the way out anyway but i fixxed it with radweld+ a few months ago but that's given out now
                  Hopefully tintin still has the rad he mentioned the other month as I can't find any companies locally that refurbish rads.

                    Ah, Radweld foams up too. Hopefully it's just that.

                    You still need a slap for using it in the first place though.

                        You actually spelled I'm, winding, frothy, don't, Shirley, I've, Mrs, I, If, It'll, next and dyslexic incorrectly.

                        But I tend not to bother correcting you as you're such an arse anyway.

                              I'm really not so sure about that .
                              I've just filled the system up with water , the whole in the rad is quite big and looks to me like a stone has hit the fins .
                              I ran it up till warm and there is absolutely no bubbling in the system , no steam etc out the exhaust but the water is pouring out the hole. Im just waiting for the video to upload to YouTube then ill post it here but correct me if I'm wrong but if my head was cracked I would have exhaust gasses bubbling up through the filler neck?
