i dont think it matters too much if the odd spelling mistake creeps in but to add no commas full stops new sentances or paragraphes makes reading your post far more difficult than it should be perhaps you could try and make an effort if you want folks to make an effort in their reply by the way i think everything is ok

it is normal to have a bit of pressure but if it blows water out when cold you have a problem i have had loads of issues with the lpg kit and with the coolant and engine i have had to replace the engine as it went 12 months ago to the day check to see if it is the lpg system that is putting pressure in there by turning the gas off at the tank there should be a small valve to it or pull off the connections to the solenoid valve and tape the wires up then run it on gas till it dies so as to run out all the lpg in the system then see if it has pressure once cooled as before hope this helps ya

If you still have a noticeable amount of pressure, say after an over-night stand, I predict you are looking at a forthcoming problem. Sounds like the exhaust gases are getting in to the cooling system, hopefully nothing more than a head-gasket on it's way out. That's what it was on my last 3.5efi but it took a while to really 'show up' - with coolant mixing with the oil. Hydrocarbon & compression rests were inconclusive at the time.

:tea: bargain
After checking cap and then the thermostat very very carefully for leaks over several hours.
From experience it is the beginning of Head gasket failure,cracked liner or liner slip- If you bought from a dealer, don't accept any flannel as they must put it right.
Do not allow them to use k seal or seal up -will just hide problems and copper specks in coolant
Any denial from a dealer-phone consumer direct
