Where's My Nipples Gone

[gus]

hey folks got a problem with the cooling system on a 5MGE engine, she seems to using water in a large amount and am having to top it up on a more than regular basis.

am doing all the usual things and i have not got any leaks etc the water just seems to be evaporating.

now i know cars use water but not at the rate mine is.

my question is for the technical minded amoung us

WHERE THE HELL ARE THE BLEED NIPPLES

cant find them anywhere and they are defo not on any of the hoses

Thanks in advance (photos would be excellent help)

there's a drain at the left rear bottom side on the radiator and one on the right hand rear side on the engine block.

Headgasket blown?

Cheers, Yves.

thanks for the advice mate. its not the head, that was my first thought as well as the "oh my god this is going to cost"

but has it checked at a garage and the head is fine, so is the radiator and all the pipes. hhhmmmmm

I have four...... three perfectly normal ones..and a tiny ickly fourth one....

Thought I'd share that with you all :-)

[vmail]

Ive been told that Ive got 3

[Leeky]

Just a thought dude but is your radiator cap air tight? Is it possible that vapour is escaping through the cap?

If your radiatorhas no leaks and neither have your pipes, and your water pump isnt leaking, and your head hasnt gone.....then i have no idea

Im sure that doesnt help in the slightest B)

[Viper_7]

You say she drinks the water. Does this only happen when ya motors in use?

Ie does she still pi%% water out when not used for a few days?

I'd guess that she loses water when running. Either you've got a loose hose/jubiliee clip somewhere, or the rad cap / expansion hose cap is knackered,

or the rad is holed, or as you have previously ruled out the head gasket has gone.

get the system pressure tested..........

I remember on my old 7M-GE supra, I hada pin hole in one of the heater matrix feed pipes... it never "leaked" but when she got up to temperature it steamed out... but was easilly missed!!!!! I alsways noticed a steamy engine bay.. but its only when it went properly that I found the leak!!!!!

Thay also tend to drip from the rad bottom drain plug...
