I"m a bit stumped ?? Where is it all going
burgerman:
In short i would like to borrow a coolant system pressure tester???? The type that fixes to the header tank and pump up, to see where the leak is,
Shortened story i have a 3.5 V8 disco which seems to aquired a thirst for coolant, no obvious leaks no water in oil or visa versa, no increased level on dipstick, runs sweet as a nutty thing, dont overheat, just uses coolant ?? hoping to test it hot n cold with the tester attatched to see where its going ??
Will take as long as it takes you to drink your complimentary cuppa :lol:
ben_haynes:
Do you have LPG?
mine drinks Coolant / Water when running on LPG
burgerman:
no- dont do enough miles for lpg, but keep the tips coming though :)
If the moderaters wish to move this post to disco section i understand, But still need a offer of a pressure tester though :)

Its your Rad, any amount of money on it.
The noise that it was making on Sat certainly points that way and I did see corrosion on there. I'd suspect that the stops on those fans have done it :( Fill her up, go for a good blast to get her nice and toasty and look arround the rust marks. Might ecven be worth using your laser pointer as the steam will make the beam visible.
I thought you were aware the rad had an issue else I'd have make a bigger fuss of it. :(
burgerman:
No im toooo laid back sometimes for my own good :lol: , I shall pop off the fans n go for a blast later on today,( via the petrol garage of course :roll: ) The rads not too old so hopefully i can braze it or chemical metal if its a proper leak n not corrosion??? Cheers for reminding me though :D
P.S ordered the fuse box thingy ( i like fuses me :lol: ) and a few hundred different connecters yesterday,
