Subject:      coolant problem
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="Windows-1252"


I think this was discussed before, but it's happening to me. The coolant is
being forced out of the expansion tank to the refill tank. The van is
rinning good, I bled the system last night and even replaced the cap. I'm
using Havoline extended lfe, and isn't orange anymore, more like red. I know
that the combustion gases are getting to the cooling system, any ideas why?
The heads were replaced on 1997 shortly after I bought the van (got to love
it), and had a gasket problem a few months later. Is it a gasket failure
again? Suggetions? Set it on fire? Help please...
