Timcon Posted February 26, 2021 Report Share Posted February 26, 2021 I stopped my banshee because i noticed a sound from the radiator. I checked the back water tank it was dry. Then opened the radiator, noticed i could stuff my whole finger in there before touching the water. I added water and it kept emptying more precisely going to the backward tank. What should i do?

Brooklyn350 Posted February 26, 2021 Report Share Posted February 26, 2021 Sounds like your overheated and your radiator is boiling over into your recovery tank. Check your cooling system esp if you have a stock impeller. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hoppedupandcutdown Posted February 26, 2021 Report Share Posted February 26, 2021 Bad cap, hoses routed wrong, over heating, leaking head gasket. Nothing you said made any sense. Did you open it hot? Did you start with a full reservoir? When filling the radiator did the coolant go immediately to the reservoir? Or after it cooled? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Timcon Posted February 26, 2021 Author Report Share Posted February 26, 2021 immediately to the reservoir, yes it was hot but not full Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brooklyn350 Posted February 26, 2021 Report Share Posted February 26, 2021 Fill it and start it with the cap off while everything is cold. Should be moving in there but if it’s bubbling up forcefully like it’s pressurized it could be a bad head gasket or any of what hopped up mentioned. Do you have any funny smelling or white smoke out of your exhaust? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Timcon Posted February 26, 2021 Author Report Share Posted February 26, 2021 the problem is the reservoir is half filled now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brooklyn350 Posted February 27, 2021 Report Share Posted February 27, 2021 Doesn’t matter what’s in the reservoir, empty it if you want. It’s supposed to be a recovery system so it spits it in there hot but when it cools down it’s supposed to suck back in to your radiator. IMO throw it away it’s not your problem. Check the things mentioned there is a reason your spewing coolant Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
