Good day!
So my laziness struck me.
I did not clean my hose water joint pipe. And it unveiled pitting
I noticed a raised temp when sitting in traffic light and in the verge of overheating reached full bars but not blinking (fz6n s1) on a hot summer day around 37deg celsius
Went home and checked coolant is leaking from the water joint.
Im using prestone ready to use coolant
Does a small coolant leak cause overheating? Trapped air bubbles maybe?
I did Temporary fix of using steel epoxy around the pipe joint, i havent installed it yet i ripped my radiator hose by over torquing the hose clamps, new hose is yet to arrive
What can you say about redline water wetter? I bought one just to try to lower coolant temp.
