Can anyone tell me the correct release pressure of the radiator cap as mine is 1.2 :confused:

 

Every time I turn the engine off after a run I hear the water boiling and leaks from the back of the engine :(

 

Any help well be great thanks

Sounds like you got a leak problem dude,dont think its anything to do with rad cap pressure-can you see where the leak is?-I would sort that first mate.

1.2 is right on a zed

You have wiv your spelling!! :rofl: :rofl: :slap:

1.2 is standard. i have a nismo one which is 1.3 but hasnt really made much difference or caused problems :x: :x: YET :x: :x:

better check all your pipes at the back of the engine..... i had the same problem and mine sounded like it was bubbling at the back of the engine. mine leaked from the bell housing lots of people told me it was a bypass water hose or turbo water hose and it was (Not)!!......i thought from experience it was a Corroded/Popped core plug at the back of the engine and guess what!! After dropping my gearbox it was as core plug and cost me £1.02 + V.a.t from Nissan U.K..And the stock Core plugs Are Steel with zinc coating...(Check With Magnet) If it is one of those you better do all three at the back of the block and the crank shaft rear oil seal as well......There is also Three in the Vee under the intake manifold As well!!!But they dont often go....well not yet anyway...

 

I wish i new this before i stripped half the top end of the engine down as some people told me ZED engines dont suffer from Corroded Core plugs!!!!?

I wished id followed my instinct..

Well..... aren't you a clever boy :D ;) You sound angry about something? :D

Thanks for the info guys

 

Have now found the leak at the back of the engine on the passenger side

by the spark plug
