the RAC guy said that there was air in the system and that the water (?) wasnt going through the matrix (?).
he did a chemical test on the rad and it showed that exhaust fumes were coming back into the rad. its not losing water but he said that the head gasket has gone.
he said that there was a product called "K SEAL" and that this would be good for a couple of months. has anyone used this before? just had a quick read up on it and it says that its a "permament" fix to cracks and holes in heads, gaskets, matrix, coolant system etc etc.
obviously in going to get a new head gasket but i just wanted to hear any opinions on this K SEAL?
he also said that the air lock was probably when i topped it up with water and just put the rad cap back on. he said that the truck needs to be running when you top it up, otherwise you can get air in the system.
it was actually my "mechanic" mate that topped it up for me just before i went to france. im never using him again! ####ing ######!
