hey guys bought a new project car, ( got it cheap)
so it was having trouble with the cooling system, it kept over heating after about 20 mins driving, the old owner flushed the cooling system, and forgot to put the radiator cap back on, a friend took it for a drive and thrashed it for about 35 minutes untill it started to steam. he let it sit for a bit, put more coolant in it and drove it back. it still continued to keep getting hot but the old owner only lived 5 minutes up the road so kept driving it. now it kicks over but wont start.
now i think that it may have a cracked head or gasket and is filling the cylanders with coolant. only thing i can think of. any input would be appreciated! and im also making a build thread for this too incase you want to see it
