[Mk2] [Turbo] What do you think? Is this normal?

Post by chaos19810 »

So I've finally got the engine back together after the thermostat stuck and baked the the head and warped it. I turned the key and it started, so just the timing to set and the exhaust to put on.

So after I filled up the car with coolant and crossed my fingers and hope the head gasket was all sorted. I ran the car for 90 mins and put the pipework from the expansion tank into a measuring cylinder and left it after 90mins it had pushed out 115ml the car then ran out of fuel and I left it for a couple of hours and all but 10ml had been removed.

So what do you think all normal?
