Very Week Leak

Recommended Posts

MiniGibbo

After changing the coolant in my 8v it ran better and stopped over heating when sat idling (think it had a huge air block)

 

I filled the system threw the coolant tank and the one on the top of the rad threw the slam panel and left it running to self bleed.. It now as I said runs a lot better and never over heats but drips from the cap on the rad I think, that's only a cap though rather than a bolt so I don't understand how to cure it?

 

Anyone else ever had this problem ?

If it leaks from there the rubber on the cap might just be dosed, so under normal driving when the coolant heats up it seeps past the rubber seal and out of the cap, or else it just needs a clean in there where the rubber seals against the rad.
