leave it running with the cap off the header tank for about 15-20 minutes......keep topping it up as it burps the air out.....EJ's suck to bleed!

i also give the top rad hose a bit of a squeeze seems to help get the bubbles out

back to the overheating though... are your thermo fans coming on?

yeh my fans are coming on...

15-20 minutes .. i did it for about 5 minutes cause just the coolent was coming out after the bubbles.

thanks heaps.
Anyone live near Jarrahdale by any chance lol

When i turned the car off after i had burped it(obviously not long enough) i could hear the over flow bubbling..

when you drive..can you hear gargling in the dash?? good way too tell if there is an air lock

I has this happen to my car when I first developed a crack in the top tank on my radiator. Used to always tell that it was time to stop and pull over when coolant was spitting through the open vent in the bonnet and onto my windscreen.

nah i cant hear any bubbling thru the dash just after when u turn the car off, still jolts when i boost
soo must still be air in the system..
i'll try bleeding again.... these cars are sooo different from V8's... bleeed for like a minute and ur away gees
lol

thanks for all ur help guys..... much need

Air in the water wont make the car jolt unless its actually cooking/cooked.
Sounds like you've done the damage.

Roll her down the hill to your mechanic of choice and get it pressure tested/looked at.

its got a really steady idle and drives fine, but when i boost or try to, the engine starts to jolt and thats when it starts to heat up... but other than that the car seems fine...

theres no leaks that i can see part from the y pipe under the I/C that i fixed earlier... but its all good

im gonna try to burp it again later on today...see wot happens.

i can only F*%k it right!
