Hello!
Just recently got my fuel tank/lines etc all put back on s2 after a big strip down and paint of all the little bits, new suspension etc,,
car hadn't been run for almost a year! so drained all oil, new filter and fresh oil turned it by hand fresh fuel in tank and fired it up,, started no problem on first turn,,
let it sit for a a few mins while i looked around the bay for leaks etc
Then i noticed water dripping out of exhaust,,, not condensation from sitting but quite a steady drip of water i have a very short side exit exhaust,
a lot of water had gone from header tank,
first thing i thought was head gasket was knackered, so i pressure tested coolant system to 20psi and it holds it no problem with no noticeable drop off.
so is it possible that head is cracked and it'll hold pressure while its cold but when its hot and expanded a bit could a crack open up?
any help appreciated, pretty fed up now!!
