Well I don't feel as stupid today about the fear I might have screwed up my new engine..."the Radiator cap incedent"...
.
When I intended to turn that raditor cap 1/4 turn to blow coolant over to res.,,,and it easily went "too far",,blowing 3/4 gallon of coolant out from under cap.
This morning I opened cold to check coolant,,and Radiator cap turn fully off with almost no resistance...................
The little safety teeth on radiator snout are worn off,,,that's why I screwed up so easily.
.
I need to pull plugs yet and see their condition and if they tell something,,,frankly been to sick of this thing to do any work on it right now <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/barf.gif" alt="" />, maybe I should do compression check?
