What if the headgasget was blown by me, not filling with water since I got it home? And the car was picked up from a garage but the eBay name is in the name of the garage owner?

thanks nathan, that helps !

it would seem thats my only option, does anyone have a guess on the amount to fix this? ball park?

the dealer is 300 miles away, i have demanded he pay for work, but with no replies.

co2 "sniffer"? sorry ? how much to replace/repair these? roughly should i be paying?

there are no gold coloured particles, bought it from a dealer, it was sold to him as a part ex and it said sold as seen.

could water not be getting to the block because it's airlocked? (is that what your sayin?) is there another way to clear an airblock? can i do something like, connect a horse pipe and blast water through?

no white stuff round oil cap

is there anyway for me to see if there is a cracked head? where would i look? how much to sort out normally? thanks fo all your help by the way

the block? explain. yeah drove it back without overheating, no probs.

just been running the engine for 20 mins been sqeezing the pipe next to the power steering fluid to see if there was an airlock (with filler cap off) , then all of a sudden the coolant water was boiling (steam ect) and the water leave was going up and down, if i let this happen again would it...

All the coolant is still there, it was just boiling after 2 mile driving, how do I check all these things? Links would be good. I'm going to check in the morning

Right it was completely out of coolant I have now filled it an it worked fine for a while, now the coolant is bubbling and it does the same as before it's defiantly something to do with temperature I my opinion, any thoughts?

How would I be able to test this?
