  1. 97 toyota tarago, manual, its pretty much always run rough but a few weeks ago we got the aircon regassed and since then the radiator reservoir has been boiling its butt off and its losing water something terrible. There is no water in the oil as yet. So far we have replaced the heater hoses, radiator cap, water pump and clutch fan, radiator cap and new radiator fan we put new oil in the engine, new radiator we are afraid we may have blown a head. Had the pressure test the gauge never moved so pretty sure its not a head gasket. At a loss with it as its our primary car and we need it because of my daughters heart condition next thing is timing and a new overflow bottle.
  2. Thanks Trentmeyer23, for your reply. My mistake the rad cap was replaced along with the theremostat at the same time. Also a new water pump was fitted when radiatior was done. I was told this but I am a bit forgetful after having both knee joint replacements done 3 weeks ago, They told me they would replace the hoses but unless the hose was collapsing it should not cause this problem, Seems it is a 97model not 95.
  3. G'Day, I am posting this for my friends as they were having a problem signing up to the forum. They have a 1995 Tarago thst is overheating. They fitted a new thermostat first. Then a new radiator.and new fan. They then had a bloke come and pressure test the radiator twice for a head gasket or cracked head with no positive results, Is there a correct procedure to fill the coolant with these models and is there a bleed nipple anywhere to bleed the system like a Commodore has. I always park my HJ75 with 2H motor facing uphill so the head is not left with air in it. Also heater in on position with fan off. Thanks for any advise as they need the van to take their two girls to school. I had a look in "search' there was a similar post but there was no conclusion to the post. TIA.
