    Default sr20 water gurgling after getting a lash

    lads just wondering,the silvia water is gurgling in the top rad hose after i give the car a good lash but the temp gauge reads normal,is this the norm with these or is it HG time??

    If you think you can,or you think you can't,your probably right!

    are you going from the standard gauge or an aftermarket one?

    the standard ones rarely move past the standard position unless temps are off the chart

    stock gauge is not worth a fuck mine sits around 1/4 way all the time and the temp reads between 70-80 on the hand comander and the same on my greedy temp gauge

    did you try bleeding it out and then drive her on again, get a coke bottle cut it in half wrap a few laps of insulting tape around it till it fits tite in the top of the rad(a good water tite seal) crimp the expansion pipe, and fill the bottle to the top run the car nd open the 10mm bleed bolt (behind the cam angle sensor on head) let it bleed out till no bubbles come out but do not let the bottle go empty
