one other thought that I am having is the fact that it actually has low oil pressure is causing the overheating .

near grand rapids mi, and the more I think about it I havent really lost any coolant just pushed it into the reservoir and I siphoned it out and put it back into the radiator.

do you think running the block check would help diagnose it conclusively even with minimal bubbles? ill go buy one and try it if you think that small amount of bubbles will chsnge the color of the fluide. just want to nail ghis thing to the wall for damn sure before I spend $1000 on having...

correct I ran it for 20 min up to temp with a rad cap funnel tool installed and after many heat cycles I witnessed vary few bubbles comming up through the coolant I was able to go as long as 3-4 minutes at idle with no bubbles. I did notice a few small ones if I reved up the engine but not...

and if it is leaking out whay would the resuvor be full to the top.

no leaks that I could find. no studs. why would the "engine shut down due to low oil pressure light be coming on? and not the temp light? is 215 not hot enough for the temp light to be coming on...

ok had a long night in the garage last night (should have been a long night on the trai) and i still havent nailed this down consecutively enought to pull the motor and say with out a dought its a head gasket... last night I realized the light that was coming on was not the temp light I thought...

wow thanks big help!!! I know there is a lot of variables involved but do you have a rought ball park on what a head gasket job cost? considering the head is in good shap. do the head bolts need to be replaced? how hot would it need to get before damage will occur? whats the normal opperating temp?

Thats kinda what I thought to but why is the system holding pressure then when I put a gauge on it and pressurize it ?

just bought an 08 nytro fx rtx (front cooler only) ran great on test drive and I loved it got it home and it overheated. It has an atermarket gauge on it and the stock light came on at 210 and I shut it down at 220. after some investigating realized the fan relay wasn't working. I replaced it...
