Help,
Good customer brought 92 into shop with leaking radiator.Replaced radiator-upper tank was cracked.After replacing could not run engine with rad. cap off to fill-kept pumping coolant out of top.Figure blown head gasket,maybe which caused cracks in radiator.Removed head & sent to machine shop-pressure ck & ck for warpage.Pressure check & machine head .008 inch.Get all back together & have same issue & engine sounds like a thrashing machine.Tried to raise front of truck & fill rad. to bleed system.After running for about 5 minutes starts puking coolant again.What the heck.Thought I was a decent mechanic.Just rebuilt a 3.slow in my 4runner.Had trouble with it bleeding cooling system,let set overnight with front jacked way up-works great now.Am I not being pacient enough with the Cruiser.Would like to get the guys truck back to him-good guy-good customer.Want it to be right when he gets it.
Thanks a bunch
