"Original"-- Technical Questions, Answers, Observations / Cooling System
« on: March 24, 2013, 09:56:20 PM »
hi everyone, my name is Davide and i live in Perth, Western Australia.
i have just been bitten with the Willy bug.
i am in the process of restoring my early 1950 CJ3A. �
i went to flush the cooling system but to my surprise no coolant was coming out of the drain * on the side of the engine block next to where the oil dipstick enters the block.
i ran a coolant flush 3 time and the colour went from red mud to a light brown colour however still no coolant through the drain *.
i am thinking there must be a blockage somewhere. i would rather not remove the head, and hopefully explore other avenues.
Any suggestions?
Thank you for your help
i have attached a couple of photos of the old girl!
