Good idea. I will have to bone up on head gasket diagnostics…Seems a little weird to me that the compression is not over pressurizing the system and overfilling the expansion tank 🤔 Head gaskets can act in unexpected ways I think. Will try to be methodical and objective for a change 🤣Cheers Denis 👍
@@TheGibby3340 it will be ever so little, Ian...so much so that it takes something as sensitive as a pulse sensor to pick it up and with a sync on one of the coils, you might be able to determine not only if it's head gasket related but might also be able to tell around which cylinder... good luck...if anyone can see 400k out of that Suzuki, it's you:)
Is it auto transmission? Wifes Astra leaked a small amount from combined radiator/ trans cooler into transmission oil. Took a while to find where it was going.
Not sure. I have had a small puddle on my garage floor lately. Which I am happy about. Seems less likely to be a head gasket concern. Will hunt for the issue in earnest in the coming days. Thx for watching 🍻
maybe pulse sensor on radiator, Ian
if head gasket, might see in waveform...

Thx Denis. I don’t hope for these scenarios to arise, but if I can learn something from them it’s not a total loss. Thx again 🍻

5 speed manual Iain. I do some digging 🍻
radiator cap ?

Coolant is no consumable,
Tell that to GM 😂
