Default Re: I checked my radiator temps

The sending units for the stock gauges are ok. As for the pressure in the cooling system, how much extra pressure? The cooling system doesn't seem to have any venting issues and its not exploding out of the radiator when i remove the cap either. The oil in the pan is fine, but there was a milky goo all over the pcv valve when I removed it to make sure the valve was still functional. Am I correct in thinking that somewhere in my lifter valley coolant and oil is mixing?

I'm not sure how to gauge the performance of the car. These problems arrose immedidately after installing all the motor mods(heads, cam, intake, tb, exhaust, etc).

You may need to borrow or buy a coolant system tester so you can pressurize the coolant system and see if it leaks down any. (Dont over pressure the system though I always go as high as the radiator cap is). Very well could have a leak. You might drain a little oil from the pan and see if theres any water there, and pull the spark plugs back out also and look at the color of them. Good luck!
