Heater / Radiator
« on: 13 July 2004, 15:17 »
I have a H plate 16v, When the heater is on warm it just blows smoke at you that stinks !!!
Also the cars coolant system seems to be playing up.
The hose that goes from that expansion tank to the Rad was leaking at the rad so I cut it back and re fixed. When doing so I noticed that the water in the hose was full of Rusty deposits ????
ANYONE ??? ???

Are you sure its smoke & not steam?

If its steam,sounds like the heater matrix.
