Well I used it last night and had the cap off for a while, while it idled and heated up, then replaced cap as coolant was coming out filler neck due to expansion... was that ok?
Quoting: Anonymous Coward 65665023 Yes. You want all of the air out, but like a pressure cooker, if it is not air tight, it will loose a bit. That is the trade off on the KW working longer. No pressurization in the cooling system is easier on the area the KW sealed. Thanks. How much time did you get before the gasket completely failed, or is it still running, and how many miles later? Thanks again! I have seen it last 20-30k miles. Good luck, and your welcome. Sounds good to me. I noticed when I shut the engine off this morning I heard a gurgle noise. Is that trapped air in the system from when I released some coolant to make room for the 8 ounces of K&W? I hope it is not exhaust gasses, but I never heard the gurgle until this morning, so I'm thinking the system is burping...
