XR6_ED Member 1,517 Member For: 22y 1m 24d Posted 23/12/04 08:01 AM Author Share Posted 23/12/04 08:01 AM cooling system might be overboosting ..Either faulty or header tank cap is not reliefing at the right pressure ie.over-pressuring the cooling system and heater core the weakest part..Wont know until the core comes out...
