Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1


Hi all:


I need some help on finding out what happened to my engine (blown heads and
gaskets 4 weeks ago).
Now everything is fixed, welded heads, new gaskets, new thermostat; the
radiator flushed, system is w/coolant and bleeded, but.....
Temp of water tank in engine compartment....... very HOT
Temp of water in rear tank (reservoir?)...... Tepid
Temp of water in Radiator................................COOL


Can anybody help me understand this and tell if this caused my heads to
blow in the first place and what to do?


MANY Thanks in Advance
