over heating on boost

[NiftyNev]

Thanks Nev. Sometimes I shudder when I feel I have to answer - you did it for me!

I might just add -

these thermostats are not like the old fashioned type, they are double action have a look at your old one when it opens it also shuts a bypass water gallery behind it so it makes the water circulate around the engine , sorry to be the bearer of bad news but 99% sure your head is cracked between the valves

well ive fixed the problem with new oil in vioscous clutch and a new rad its mint now, although the k seal has part blocked the heater matrix which im changing this week.

Impressive ability to pi55 off two of the most knowledgable members on here and spell 'viscous' at least three different ways in the space of a few posts.

Well done you.

You're not on the good garage scheme, you're just a young lad who likes fiddling with cars and occasionally selling parts when you break them.

If you want to stay here and learn about surfs and how to fix them, I'm sure you're very welcome. I'll give you two bits of advice: don't take thermostats out and don't put k-seal in.

If you're hoping to sell parts or trucks, I think you fell down when you used the same username that's dirt across half the internet.

Should ban him now, before he gets the chance to rip anyone off
on here.

To the OP. I would like at this juncture to draw your attention to the work of the great alliterative poet Nelson Muntz.

that block was is fine its been smoothed down thats all it needed. it does not contact any moving or major parts


all the links are from the same thread the lad got his money back. even though theres nothing wrong with it.


i can assure you the heads not cracked under towing it doesnt flicker i dont need uprated springs on at all the land cruiser sits the same way. when towin.

[Albannach]

i dont need uprated springs on at all

Yes, yes you do.

the land cruiser sits the same way. when towin.

That just means the LC has weak springs too...

[TonyN]

Cracking thread Grommit.

[shokenore]

think your self lucky so far all i said was some things about gaskets and posted a picture of me with a skid mark. im guessing you have sort of ####ed on ya matches so to speak. ohh and by the way your head is probably still cracked..which will eventually burst your new rad or make it weep from the solder joints, and you need to up rate your rear springs and shocks. but dont take that advice from me

I think you may well be accused of being just ever so slightly economical with the truth their Thrifty old bean.....

But as ever I eagerly await the continuation of this thread,and as I am "stuck"in St.Austell for the rest of the week I could do with some entertainment.

I miss the likes of Romeoerrotech ?and his tales of Scoobyism...
