Vtim 3rd Gear August 13, 2004 Share August 13, 2004 check your radiator cap, you may need to replace with a new one that can withstand the correct pressure most likely the spring on the original cap is worn out & couldn't hold the pressure & letting all the steam evaporate Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
