  1. I would suggest Comma following Rover recommendation, Green up to 2002 then OAT/G30 onwards.

    Anymore info on Radtec problems with OAT pink, as that’s what I am running?

  2. Hi Phil

    I see you are running 285H cams, which I understood make best power at c7500rpm? have you intentionally set rpm low to protect pistons or once injectors changed you will extend rev range?

    look good numbers at 7000rpm.

    Cheers

  3. Radtec are advertising rads on eBay so likely have stock?

    hope you get sorted soon.

    By way sent you PM on shims for K series head if you still have them

    cheers

  4. Thanks Ian and Andrew

    i am going to give it one more go, bleed system, new cap, hole in thermostat (thanks Stu, no hole at moment) and ensure valve on inlet clear. May also exclude heater for now to isolate that as an issue.

    if not I am due an engine upgrade so head off it is then!

    Regards

  5. Hi

    Following a change to radtec radiator having a challenge getting K series Caterham cooling system operating properly

    Issue is after 20 mins drive and once full revs applied coolant blows out of hoses around heater and traces around expansion cap. Hose from heater to water rail particularly hot, Otherwise all looks ok.

    - no symptoms or issues before radiator change

    - appears NO water in oil or oil in water 

    - car runs up to temperature fine

    - radiator top and bottom hose get hot, doesn’t appear air lock

    - fan kicks in fine

    appears system is pressurised and not relieving and finding weakest point, maybe just need new expansion cap?

    welcome any thoughts/experiences please

    cheers

    Paul
