New problem i have got with my blown cg13de is overheating.
She is perfectly fine under normal driving conditions, and will act just like any normal micra, until you put the foot down.
The poor we thing heats up really really fast, and starts to boil the coolant.
Have been over the whole cooling system, and there doesnt seem to be any blockages or leaks, fan works fine.
Im now thinking that the standard radiator just isnt up to the job of keeping the temp down when running high bhp. So i have been thinking of swaping it for somthing a bit more rebust.
I was at one of my mates garages, and he had a diesel Nova Van up on the ramps, and the rad on it seemed to about the right hight, and the nossles seemed to be about the same. bit its twice as wide as the standard micra one. if i were to fit it, i would do it with two fans to aid it also.
Anyone got any suggestions as to what fits (with a little persuasion) before i go round the scrap yards looking for parts?
thanks guys.
