1995 mitsubishi Galant 2,4 v6 overheating

replaced thermostat and flushed system fine

for a while with some rise in temp at times
now pressurising water out header tank and
temp gauge does not move above normal

Could be a blown head gasket or cracked head, fit a pressure gauge to the radiator
and start engine , as sharp rise in pressure indicates the above faults.

A few things to check before we condemn it as a leaking head gasket(pressurising

water out).
First check the radiator cap seal,no cracks and that it takes some pressure to push
the spring loaded part down.
Does both the top and lower radiator hose get hot as temp gets to normal(where
thermostat should be open).if not,the thermostat may be a faulty one or has
slipped out of seat as the cover was bolted back down onto it.(temperature will
differ either side of it).I have had some of these come in with part of the
waterpump impellor rotted away.same symptom of one hot and one cold hose,and
water doesnt flow inside radiator with cap off(ensure this is not removed if engine is
hot)and temp where the thermo should be open.
Possibly the radiator needs sending out for the top or side tank to be removed and
each tube cleaned out.this is a lot more effective than trying to reverse flush with
water only.
But if temp is normal these areas should be fine.
Do the hoses swell with pressure and become hard to squeeze in a short time?this
could reveal a leaking head gasket and should be tested with a teekay type tester
for the presence of cylinder gases in cooling system.
Do the fan(s) come on if sitting idling at normal temp for 5-10mins?water can be
pushed out if they dont come on or their cut in/out temp is incorrect.hope this
helps.
let me know some times re when it pushes water out,do you hear a boiling sound
from inside engine or radiator when this happens,any other info that may help
diagnose.

Radiat0r baka barado, wag puro tubig ang gamitin, dapat mai hal0ng 2 litre na
co0lan, bakit? Kasi ang c0olant mas hi temp ang kelangan para uminit, bakit
kelangan pa tubig? Ang tubig mabilis lumamig,.

Water pump, baka lut0s na ang elisi ng pump,

Radiat0r fan, baka di nag aut0matic,

Water circulati0n, baka di nanagsicirculate ang water sa l0ob ng engine, if u ar

using ordinary water mai chance na maip0n ang dumi,

O2 sens0r, need to replace..

what po yung possible na causes nf overheating? paki list down po kung ano po ung
mga gagawin...salamat po kuya:)

coolant leak on hoses

defective waterpump
defective thermostat
defective auxillary fan or thermo modulated fan
defective radiator
ang pinamasaklap at talagang masakit sa bulsa ay pag bumigay o nasira ang
cylinderhead ng sasakyan,pero mostly nangyayari lang naman na masira ang
cylinderhead pag severe na ang overheating ng sasakyan,kaya pacheck mo lagi
yang mga pyesa na yan sa taas..

Dagdag ko lang sa cause ng overheating ung rubber sa takip ng radiator if singaw

un mag kocause ng overheat un wala ka makikita na waterleak pero nagbabawas
ung tubig mo kasi nag eevaporate ung tubig pansin ko lang kasi puro heavy causes
ng overheating ung naka paskil sa taas hehehe pero salamat na din sa mga kasymb
ko na sumagot ng tanong ng iba habang wala ako dito
