How can you tell if you're colling system is under excessive amounts of pressure and what might be the possible causes of it?


Thanks

 

that's why you have a overflow/recovery tank, also a bad headgasket would cause excessive pressure

 

bump kids need some more opinions

 

bad radiator cap, signs would be swelling in the hoses

 

cool, bump for more opinions tho

Whats so strange about it is if ANYTHING, coolant in the overflow tanks disappears. And I didn't notice any type of oil or combustion by-products in the coolant when I drained alot of it (but not all from the block im sure) to change my radiator this past summer..

 

BUMP for that golden answer
