Still overheating 300tdi....saga continues

<< < (4/4)

loyalduke:
Yup they skimmed the head and gave it an acid bath as it was gunged up....need to do the inlet manifold this time. Probably put in an EGR blanking plate as this causes all the crap :roll:

Don't believe its the a-bar and wipacs as that would cause problems at low speed but the problems start when I am accelerating or trying to go uphill! Also the viscous fan seems to create a fair old gust through the rad at idle.

So of with her head :shock:  AXA will live again :lol:

bilge rat:
just a thought daft as it seems i know, your viscous fan when cold should have little resistance when you spin it by hand with the engine off, get it to opperating temp turn engine off spin again should then be loads of resistance, have been known to fail on ocasions .alan......

Porny:
Have you checked your heater matrix isn't leaking??  

Engine block, has this been flushed properly??  i.e. the the plug on the side of the engine block removed?  (small 13mm head brass bolt, located just under the exhaust manifold)
