headgasket just replaced problem not fixed
Hi,
my dad just replaced the headgasket on my moms 2001 pt cruiser. Before it was overheating and he took it to a mechanic who said the H/G was bad, so my dad took 2 weeks(mostly weekends) to replace the headgasket himself. we just started up for the first time today, and it is shooting water out of the radiator cap when it is off. It has been our experience in another car (Honda Del Sol) that that is evidence of a blown head gasket. my question is what could be causing the water to shoot out of the radiator cap. we have not bleed the coolant system yet since the H/G was replaced.
If you need anymore information to figure it out let me know and i'll see what i can find out.
Thanks in advance
Shane
