Hi all. Got those last few issues I posted about worked out. Now I'm left with, a speedometer that doesn't move, although odometer turns fine. Also, need a little assistance with the way a series II expansion tank works. It is a stock series ii set up The car runs great, I can run it for some time and it stays in operating temp, but I get water out of the oveflow valve hose whenever water is in the expansion tank. I filled the whole system up from empty, just a few days ago, so not sure if everything is circulating properly. Heater is n hot and blows hot.
1. Is it common for the little overflow valves to fail? And if so can they be blocked off and just rely on the radiator cap for pressure relief
2. What should it look like when I fill up the system and let it run with the cap off? How does this tank thingy operate? There is a jet of water from the high hose side.
3. Compression is great, no oil in water, no water in oil no foaming or bubbling coming from the filler neck etc.
Thanks for any assistance.
