Default I changed HEAD GASKET, i think im still getting preasure ?

ok, i was getting preasure in my system, changed my head gasket etc,

i just started it and it seems as th reservoir tank still got a few bubles in it, now im took of rad cap and started and letting it bleed, right thats how u do it ??

all sensors are cleaned, and thermostat was good, the radiator cap is a 0.9 and works good i think, .let me know what else to check, thanks

Your coolant system should pressurize to 13lbs with the cap on. Any white smoke?

if you think it's a headgasket problem do a compression test and see if you have a even pressure accross the board, if there's a problem then do a Leak Down Test to find the problem.

You can check the cap but you'll need a pump and a adaptor to mount the cap on and check it to make sure it vents at the specified PSI on the cap!
