  • [Corsa B 1993-2000] Air lock or rubbish radiator?

    Sounds like air lock to me.

    Do you have engine running with heaters on full and hottest setting?

      Thought so, from my point of view seems like an airlock at the bottom of the rad. Didn't want to keep it on/fan on whilst it was coming out the tank as when it starts it seems like it doesn't want to stop and makes such a mess lol

      Yeah had it running for close to an hour, heaters on hottest and full blast, they warmed up as quickly as they did before.

        I'm with Vegas, sounds like an air lock. Drain it and refill at literally a trickle. It's the only way to purge some of them.

          Thanks guys, annoying as It went smoothly last summer when I rebuilt everything.

          Best to drain it from the bottom corner where the fan sender is?
