What's Boiling Your Pi$$ Today?

[Scrappy]

Is that an engagement ring? - I wouldn't be surprised with a figure like that... smoking!



No offence intended to either Ms Duck or yourself

It's her wedding ring...
She's a widow...
A very sexy widow with a set of bum cheeks that can juggle tennis balls whilst pouring me a jamesons

Funny enough I'm on the jamesons now and then I'm off to shag some pinkos

Don't do it!

It's a pinkos drink

You're a bad influence...

But you will notice that mine isn't half a glass

Did Stacy like her hand crafted nipple adornments? I bet there's been a total absence of gremlins hiding under her boobies since

Do you have to drive somewhere later today?

Do you have to drive somewhere later today?

No I just haven't reached your level of lush

No I just haven't reached your level of lush

Everyone needs a goal in life Scrappy.
I'll support you & guide you through the process. By the time you graduate, nobody will assume you're a friend of Dorothy ever again.

I'll clear a space under my hedge & inform the local pigeons of your apprenticeship

Start by watching this short training video...

I finally had everything I needed to put the Duckmobile back together yesterday so bright and early I got cracking on it...
Long story short new thermostat water pump power steering pump gaskets and seals and et voila it started up nicely and everything seemed fine...
Then the bloody temperature gauge started rising and bit of a coolant under the car...
How can this be???
I replaced everything...
Though that so called water pump gasket looked shit to me and was nothing more than a cut out piece of paper so that's got me wondering...
Coolant level is fine this morning but it's still over heating...
WTF else can I do????

 

[Don the Don]

Did you get all the air out the system? did you refill slowly or just chuck the water back in? take the pressure cap off and start her and squeeze the hoses to help remove any air {DONT get your mitts near the belts or fan] turn the heater to hot and run untill she warms up [air can be in that system too] replace cap and see what the system temp looks like

 

[smib]

WTF else can I do????

Take it to a garage!

 

[BAD LUCK DUCK]

Done it all nice and slow..Even jacked the front of the car up in an attempt to remove any air pockets...
Nothing is coming back through the return coolant pipe unless I squeeze a hose myself but even then it's just a trickle...
I would drop the radiator and flush that out thinking that's blocked but unfortunately I can't raise the car high enough to get clearance to pull rad out from underneath...

 

[BAD LUCK DUCK]

Take it to a garage!

Money I ain't got and how do I get it there when the nearest garage is eight miles away up some really steep hills...Car would go bang way before I got there...☹

I was only joking mate.
As suggested by Don it sounds like an airlock.
It is a Jaaaaaaag after all.
Keep persevering... You will sort it

 

[BAD LUCK DUCK]

I'm thinking a mobile mechanic with the means to raise the vehicle remove the rad and blast that through in case something is blocked there..
Airlock was my first train of thought but now I'm doubting that

 

[BAD LUCK DUCK]

I'm gonna attach a hand pump and try draw the coolant through to see if that clears any airlock

 

[Don the Don]

@BAD LUCK DUCK that hose looks more like an overflow hose in the picture, squeeze the main top and bottom hose and put the heater to max heat and full power then run it if you squeese the bottom and top hose you should see the water rise and lower and any air will bubble up. what you should have done when you emptied the rad was put a hose pipe into flush the rad or even jugs of water to flush it out, keep trying and persevere, some cars have bleed screws on the water system "check"

Didn't work...
That top pipe is the return pipe from the thermostat...
I couldn't flush the system with a hose pipe as I'd need an exceptionally long pipe and couldn't justify over a £100 on a garden hose..
I've now downed tools and will have to get someone to come and sort it...
Just watched a you tube video on removing radiator and its a bastard and I don't have the equipment or patience any more with this particular issue...
And now a bloody engine light as come on so fuck knows...
