Overheating...

Hey guys...

is there a water or pressure relief valve on the driveside of the T-bird if the car is overheating or if you have a radiator cap that is not up to pressure ?

I took the Thermo out to make sure I didn't have a blockage... but I'm getting hot water in the overflow and some steam on the driver side under the plentium... with oily stuff in the overspray... I heard it could be blocked up CATS or simple a bad radiator cap.

Thoughts ?
 
Nevermind... I figured it out. Blow-by coming from the dip stick...

... however it was as effort to fix the head gasket.

Fixed it though...

thanks
 
RE: Blowby

Be careful. I had the same problem after replacing my orig head gaskets. Three weeks later spun a rod bearing. Now am in a new engine.
