Coolant forcing out of overflow
« on: May 18, 2014, 11:29:01 PM »
Hi kymco heads. I have a liquid cooled Kymco 250cc Bet and Win. I have burped all the air from the cooling system, ran it tell the fan kicked on burped air from t-stat hose and all. No more air bubbles coming from system, butttt when I run it with my funnel in the fill cap the coolant level rises from the bottom of the funnel to almost overflowing. Not matter how many times I bleed my coolant, burp it any way I can think of the coolant lever always rises and ends up in the overflow bottle. Anyone out there have suggestions?
