Did you notice if the fan came on or not?
|
yes the fan came on.
|
the fan came on when the warning light came on,:100: but after i filled it with water it did not come on,the water that leaked was warm and not hot
|
I would check to make sure that all the clips are tight that hold the radiator hoses on, fill up and test it again. I had a leak in my raditor hose once and have still yet to find out why the water level keeps ever so slightly going down in the bottle over a few months riding.
If not and it is probably the cap, it could just be a worn rubber seal, a new radiator cap shouldnt be too expensive. |
