Please notify explain why a bad thermostat would make the coolant come out the
radiator neck.

Only place it can come out unless you have a leak somewhere. Once the
coolant starts to boil it will lift the pressure relief in the cap.
Most OEM thermostats from MB have a bleed valve, so boiling coolant
can leak through to the upper radiator hose.
I would back-flush the radiator too,
If the coolant was boiling out could you put your finger in it? This is too
soon and not hot enough and theres no heat at the heater core.
And I already replaced the thermostat once...

Dimitri,
Is there a valve on this car between the engine and the heater valve? Also,
IIRC, the heater valves on that car look as though they might be frozen. Check
for actual valve movement with lever movement.

I'm not sure if there is a valve. The heat worked last week so I don't think
that's the prob. There is just no coolant circulation into heater core for some
reason.

Hey, I was just wondering - what happened to our Chicago coffee guy?
Also, for those espresso folks, I’m curious as to what people’s preferred or
favorite brand(s) of beans are?

Real hot or just warm? When it was doing it to me it was maybe 100F, like hot
bath water. When I've had coolant push out from a stuck thermostat it was a big
blast all at once and was very hot.

Interesting, changing symptoms might mean a new problem. Its easy enough to jam
the thermostat open to test.

This car is possessed. How could it run perfectly after doing nothing to it
then act up again? At the end of the day I think a leakdown test is a must. It
should show me air bubbling thru coolant if head issue.

Check the diagram: http://pt709.synology.me/615_cooling.pdf
There is a direct, unobstructed path from the cooling passages in the head
through the top radiator hose to the top of the radiator. The thermostat is
in the return path from the bottom of the radiator to the water pump. Even

I'm not a big fan of Lavazza. We really like illy, but it is too expensive

Kimbo gold is nice. The other Kimbo varieties are also great.

about $3 for a vacuum pack of 250 grams.

I just looked at his espresso products. I may order a bag of each to try out.
I haven’t sourced any good espresso around here. Starbucks is nasty and burnt,
as they have no idea what espresso really is. I started out on their stuff
years ago (late 80s) when there wasn’t much else around.
I use various. Son brings home a variety of *$. Their Casi Cielo is quite
good. Our local Costco has a roaster in-store, and I like their Sumatra and
various special purchases from Ethiopia and Guatemala. We usually buy a bit of
Kona when we go to Hawaii. SWMBO gets tired of the same
Lately I have been committing the blasphemy of adding 100% non-alkalized cocoa
to my coffee, both for the flavor and the health benefits. It has more
healthful phytochemicals than just about anything.

Last week, the clothes washer started leaking during operation. It had
leaked water months ago, which we found was due to too much soap, but since
then we'd been careful to put in less soap.
I wasn't looking forward to diagnosing and fixing this leak, mainly because
the dryer is stacked on top
Dan,
I'd give the Cuban beans/grounds a try, local should = fresh and that is
half the battle. Cafe Bustello is Cuban and not bad for a really cheap
product from El Mercado de Wal. I also cannot stand Starbucks espresso
after having the real deal in Italy. Italy spoiled me for many things:
Well, ATTABOY, anyway, even at a cost of $36. ;)

What brand name is non-alkalized cocoa? Or perhaps I gotta go to the

The place is right around the corner from MB of Tampa, and I just found out you

No sign of any sort of samplers on their web site. I was going to drop Darren
a note and see if there were any options but I can’t find his email address in

The only thing I get at Starbucks is a tall blonde, add some sugar.
Part of the reason I don't like their espresso: they serve it in a paper
cup, and it gets cold almost immediately.
