If your coolant is boiling at those temps, then in theory you have a vacuum inside your cooling loop.

Either those are bubbles and not boiling water, which means you need to prime the cooling loop, or that your radiator is clogged.

had the same problem. found out that my timing was too advanced which caused the engine to run hot. the temp guage was not accurately indicating the overheat problem.

Even if its advanced, your cooling system should be able to handle it. Though it would mean your fans would turn on more often.

If you're overheating there's something definitely worth looking deeper into.

Having a cylinder head gasket leak would produce white smoke from your tail pipe if your combustion chamber is sucking coolant.

That would be a serious cavitation issue right there and it would be evidenced by a rather quick depletion of coolant.

oops double post

TS ... so what was the cause of your "kumukulo na tubig"? Can you update your thread?

**X-isle** · November 4th, 2012 09:37 PM

had experienced this problem lately... buti nakita ko na malapit na sa overheat yung temp ko... Any advice on where to have the cooling checked up? Can those Gas Station services be able to fix this and check up on this or do I need to go somewhere else to have this problem fixed?

any recommendations in Manila area?

Sir kindly check your water coolant and radiator for possible contamination of oil and water, check radiator( barado)thermostat, aux fan, muffler for smoke, cylnder head gasket.. Bumagal po ba ang takbo?
