Foam in coolant
Discussion
Hi, can anyone help? I have a crossflow 1700. I went to check the coolant and there is a small amount of white foamy stuff in the water, but not sludge. There is nothing in the oil and it's clean. Also, the oil catch tank is getting quite quickly filled with a thin oily/petrol smelling substance.I know that's why it's there but just want to confirm that it fills up roughly 100ml after 100 miles.
Thanks, John.
Thanks, John.
Cheers, although it really does only seem like it's a t-spoon of the stuff and only when the engine is cold-and it disappears into nothing if you rub it between your fingers and doesn't really leave an oily film. It's a bit like soap suds. While we're not on the subject of gearboxes, is there any way of telling which one I have apart from visually-I'm looking for a big sticker saying, "John, your gearbox is....."
Cheers, John.
Cheers, John.
