[QUOTE="Roots-type, post: 16675453, member: 72150"] The pressurized system, as I'm sure you already know, is designed to relieve pressure at the reservoir cap. Because 230 is really not hot enough to push water, and the fact it's leaking from a hose and not the cap like it's designed to, makes me think you've got either a bad clamp, bad hose, or bad/dirty connection. If it were my car, and I was positive the hose and connection are good, my next step would be replacing the clamp and then vacuum filling the system. The burping method technically 'works', but it can take repetition and is really only a last resort for the driveway mechanic. As finicky as these systems are, vacuum filling is the only 'right way' to do it imo. [/QUOTE]
