blu01shee Posted July 22, 2009 Report Posted July 22, 2009 All of my mods are in my sig. Just put it back together last night and was running through the heat cycles fine then all the sudden it starts steaming and spuing coolant out the over flow hose. It did this to me about a two weeks ago and lost all compresion so i tore it down and found a ring embedded in the head and blown head gasket so i sent the cylinders off to HJR (awsome job) and before i put back together took off the water pump cover to check and make sure it was functioning right and it was but when i looked at the back of the water pump cover you could see where the impeller had been rubbing it alot but put it back on. Checked all of my coolant hoses and they were fine. My radiator has no corrotion or build up in it. Bought a billet impeller, gear, washer, circlip that will be here on thursday but would like to know what else i need to check. Not sure why its doing this but any help or advise would be helpful and appreciated. Quote

ToomeySheeLE Posted July 22, 2009 Report Posted July 22, 2009 (edited) Chance your head was not torqued down, or the gasket was pinched? Depending how you were doing your heat cycles, it is possible to overheat a banshee if your not having any air go through the rad and just reving ut up for long periods of time.. I've seen 2 different bolt on banshee piss coolant all over from doing donuts for extended periods of time on a hot summers day.. Other than that I think you'll be alright.. put the new parts in it, and start it up, open your rad cap and see that there is coolant "movement" to ensure that the impeller is in fact working..

TwistedSheeRida Posted July 22, 2009 Report Posted July 22, 2009 make sure the motor isnt to hot when you pop open that radiator cap dont want to get that hot coolant in the face. Quote
