overheating after headers installed
can n-e one please help me. i installed headers 4 days ago, i then yesturday noticed my hot & cold gauge start to rise. i then checked the radiator & it had no fluid, the res tank was still pretty full. what could cause this to happen? As i was driving i did smell the radiator fluid, so i'm wondering where did all the fluid go.
I would strongly suggest filling up your radiator, check for leaks and bleed air out of your coolant system. The only way the installation of a header would cause this would be if you removed a line and didn't hook it back up properly. Driving with no coolant in your radiator will cause severe damage to your engine if driven for an extended period of time.
