Mines just been tested for hgf mate get a jug of water pull out the pipe from the overflow tank pop it into the jug of water block of the overflow pipe from that one and start the engine (or start it before you put it in... If it starts blowing a lot of bubbles in the jug it's the dreaded hgf :) or ...

Where is the unit located and how to I go about testing it? the cars currently off having the head gasket done :-: but when it's back i need to get the other ...

they are only alloys, exhaust and induction and it's £800 fc same as my old astra mk4 sri (that was standard)

p.s they are right bastards, they charged me £80 odd for change of vehicle

well if it's hgf myself and my mate are pretty confident on doing work to cars, is the hg going to be hard to replace?

Oh happy days...

this is rather annoying tbh...I've spend all my money on this pos and it does this... grrrr If its a simple cheap fix I'll be keeping the car for a while, if not it may end up on fire :@

It is over heating and the expansion bottle has been boiling an spraying water/ steam out of the pipe. Also theres a HUGE amount of steamy smoke out of the exhaust as for pressure tests no i haven't I changed the rad /coolant today and it didnt change anything it's also turning the water brown which...

Okay so as you know with the numerous other threads I have a problem Firstly The rad has been changed and is fine.. the thermostat is also fine Now theres a bit of mayo in the cap and a lot of steam out of the exhaust I think it's either hgf or water pump? can anyone tell me of any other tell tell s...

Right I've changed the sparks to nkg iridiums and all seems will so hopefully it was a failed spark and no other probs will arise with that.

anyway new rad etc should help.

I've done this too with a front bumper/ wing swap. It was a pig of a job!

anyone got an idea? sorry to bump just hopefully I will spend the day on thurs looking at the car so want an idea of where to start

Cheers

P.s belts are squealing, could the water pump be goosed?

Okay so thermo went in and all was good, it was a little warm due to needing a new rad (bottom half of mine has collapsed new one should be sorted this week) anyway I went to the petrol station today which is 14 miles. didn't give it a hammering but did put my foot down now and again (country roads)...
