Subject:      Cooling system
Content-Type: text/plain; format=flowed

I bought an 86 Vanagon last Sept. and have been learning about cooling
systems. I have replaced several hoses and the radiator. Now I am seeing the
system pressurize and push the coolant below the level probe. It will not
take any coolant from the overflow bottle and sometimes it actually
overflows.


Being new to water cooled VW, I need some advice on where to proceed. Is
this air in the system or the dreaded head gaskets? Your wisdom is truly
appreciated.
