Re: Stag overheating problem - help!

Hello Dave,

Thanks for the response.
No , the expansion bottle looks correct for the MKII but the cap is
marked 14 rather than 20. With the new set-up the car boils over. With
the old set up it seems to do fine. BTW, the caps from the old set up
will not fit the new bottle. I drove the car a little more and when
cooling down it is still gurgling a lot. I take this to be the water
boiling in the block still.
