    Still blowing fuse 3 with cigar lighter and glove box light unplugged. It has been working intermittently but is becoming a pain.

    Yeah there is no sign of oil intrusion the oil is actually surprisingly clean still I’m hoping it’s not the head gasket again. Can it be if I’m not loosing and coolant ? I’m wondering if I’m getting all the air out. The radiator seemed to be cold in comparison to the top hose
