thought it was that but new radiator, new cap, new thermo and new temp sensor but still got the issue

hey all, this is my last resort for my rolla. what is happening is its pushing coolant out of the system in to the overflow bottle but not allowing it back in. I have change radiator cap, radiator, bottom and top hoses, cleaned the overflow hoses. It is doing my head in and also i have been to red devil and they are scratching their heads on whats going on. they have said that the water pump is working an nothing is wrong coz it is pumping. fans turn on everything works so there is no reason for it to do this. it doesnt over heat. Please i need help!!

Update for all. Got a bit of work on as i have the following to change Machine head Gafite head gasket new head bolt set Full Tappit cover kit both grafite manifold kits new conrod sleeves new rings shall feel the change and will have some pics up when the kits roll in. shall have some more pics after the old head is off and the new one going on. it will be interesting to find out what the top of the pistons will be like when i pull them out

hahaha yer i kno but not bad for getting the car for 3K lol but yer it is a challenge i will take. i like its weight to power but it ****ty in the power. I am slowly working on that.

mate looks clean as and i like lots lol will be lots of fun!!! any tricks and tips for the head gasket??

Yer i dont know hey lol but i am open for any advice :D atm i have plans to work on the air intake and put a 36mm double barrel webber on it full custom exhaust. maybe sports cams. anything :D but as i said i am open for suggestions

Any chance of any more pics and maybe even some video of your 'rolla? You should start a thread about it, I know I'd be keep to have a look and keep an eye on your progress with it :) Here's mine, which I should update: http://au.toyotaowne...showtopic=29761 i have just made one :D http://au.toyotaownersclub.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=30469

sup all thought i would share my little rolla around. been getting alot of work done to it coz of its age and all. engine: 4a-fc exhaust: 2.25ich cat back system with drift pipes on the end mods: Heat Wrapped air intake Lowered with bridgestone potenzer struts and king springs Full sound system i will have some video up soon

I agree, good luck with it all, and I hope some of the conversation here has been of some help to you mate! Any chance of any more pics and maybe even some video of your 'rolla? You should start a thread about it, I know I'd be keep to have a look and keep an eye on your progress with it :) Here's mine, which I should update: http://au.toyotaowne...showtopic=29761 yer been looking in to that and looking at some old pics so i cna put my progress of the full gut drop i have done the different sound systesm i have put in and other bits and peices i have done to it and there is so much more to do to it :D lol but i am looking at getting the guys that will machine the head to make the intake ports a bit bigger and shave about 1 maybe 2mm off the head to boost compression but also use Castrol GTX Pro2 20w50 oil that helps with the compression now. replacing rings con rod sleeves tapit cover, change the mechanical water pump to electirc one and mod the air intake to force cold air in and heat wrap it and heat wrap the exhaust mani when it is off. but also run a 70 to 30 mix in the coolant as the conrentrate i use 1Ltr makes 15ltrs :D so bit to do

Hey bud, yer already done that with a 2.25inch system with a set of drift pipes on the back. i have also heat wrapped the air intake and have done a speed dash over 4km and i have been able to make the speedo dial go off the guage but yer looking at pushing it more and boosting the compression ratio :D and yer it is manual i aint gonna be lazy and seeing the autos go up ****s creek so yer ;D

Thanks troyrollasx, i have thought of that and did some research and went nar screw it. 1 it will take to long and 2 i could not be screwed doing that. i find there is more things i could do to the carby version to make it better and it is easier as i am trained up on carbies. but i am also lookin at doing all the bottom end anyway so. i know i should get the whole motor worked but i need the car soon after as well. but yeah thanks for all of that i am still open for more options

hey all, It has come to my attention that my ae92 Rolla has just clocked over 306,000km which isnt bad for 19yrs old but not just that but the motor hasnt been opened yet. now heres my issue. everytime i start from a cold start i got a puff of white smoke (yes i know its burning oil) but every other time after its been run it doesnt. now what i am looking at doing is take the head off and get it recond new gaskets new timeing gear and water pump. but i am wondering if i can get a 20V for a 4a-fc and is it worth it while the heads of take the pistons out and put new rings? as a 2nd yr going on 3rd yr apprentice mechanic it is easy for me to get the workshop keys and a hoist to do it. i just need to see if i am on the right track and get others comments and ideas on what i can do and i love this car very much. i have attached a pic to let u know what i am working with :D thanks

i only got told today about it and i have just done that and fixed all that but the shudder is still there.
