Info needed: Morris C8 radiator

[pauldavies]

Thanks Svdwal this one I got from the local auto shop, they had the one fitted which was a V and as I said to them I needed a C type, always good to get one that works and I have a few weeks prior to getting the new spring so no rush and thanks. Adjustment seems good for the 13/4 between belts but I am not sure on getting the pump pulley too far up the pulley as it would be to tight.

Hi Paul,
I thought it would be a C section belt. You don't want the belt too far up the pump sheaves, this will allow for adjustment later on when belt beds, in an stretches a bit. Hope this might help the problem, as I have come across similar circumstances.

Thanks Richard as this thing has been developing I am seeing were the V or C makes the difference, it will take a while to bed in with adjustment along the way. The spring is the biggest worry as I spoke with the company rep a couple of days ago and wasn't impressed with him but I may be wrong time will tell I suppose but they were recommended.

hi Paul,
To be perfectly honest, that Air-Lock system has no bearing on water blowing out. It only comes into operation when the cap is removed. This locks off air/expansion space in the header tank, so that you cannot put too much water in the radiator, thus weakening the anti-freeze, and also if overfilled it would blow out. So, providing you have enough water to cover the top hose fitment, then I would say you should be good to go and see how it behaves. You will find with a lot of these non-pressurised systems that if you put too much water in, there will be an initial blow out of water, then it will settle down, it is knowing to what point you fill to.

regards, Richard

Thanks for the info Guy and Richard, the spring is in Brisbane so I will need to wait for that. Hopefully I will get some movement on it next week, Guy is the spring on ebay under a particular category? I had a surf around but couldn't find anything.
Richard interesting you say "enough water to cover the hose fitting" as I have only filled till just covering the core which is below the hose fitting?

Paul,
If your water level in the rad is below the inlet for the top hose, there will not be circulation. The level needs to be up to the top hose on the rad to get cycling of the coolant.
