I have a 1992 mk3 fiesta 1.6 rs turbo which has just had the cylinder head skimmed and a full new gasket kit replaced. The problem is its still doing the same as before. Its pressurising the water and not flowing properly therefor running really hot when I switch it off it bubbles away and is left with little or no water in the expansion tank I have bled it time and time again and it satill persists! Pls help!
