I need some help with
figuring out my cooling problems.
Just so it doesn’t
get lost in the following BS, I need to state that I think the problem is
related to the coolant pressure. It seems to me to be way too
high. I am beginning to think that the coolant is somehow partially
blocked.
There is the pressure due to the expansion of the liquid governed by the
cap, and the dynamic head, or difference between the intake and outlet of the
pump, and flow restrictions in the system, which goes up and down with pump
RPM.
This pressure difference changes with RPM, air content of the coolant,
temperature of the coolant, and formula of the coolant. All normal stuff.
