John McCormack Posted January 6, 2022 Author Report Share Posted January 6, 2022 I bought the kit off eBay as recommended by Hamish. I ran the test and the fluid didn't change colour. I had the engine running for about 6-7 minutes from cold and about 4 minutes with the thermostat open. It had air bubbling through the fluid including a few 30 second runs at reasonably high revs, maybe 2500-3000 (head under the bonnet so couldn't see the tacho). The temp gauge was about 190 when I stopped the test. The fluid didn't change colour so I suppose that is another indication that it isn't a cylinder head gasket leak. It is probably one of those random things that happens to annoy one. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
