CULTUS bubbles in radiator

[prince101]

brother can u tell me in detail plz how u bled the air in the system, plz dont use the motor heads lingo I dont understand it ,and tell me where did u find that air bleeder bolt

i read your threat and i also have the same problem mechanics told me the gaskit issue but my car have no issues of overheating ,No smoke from silencer , No water engine oil mixup so its mean that the gaskit is ok .

As i post above , i follow the instructions of XULFIQAR , but unfortunately i don't find the bleeding bolt on the radiator so i open a bolt which is placed on the metal pipe on which the top rubber pipe of the radiator is connected (on engine side) . so i remove the bolt
start the car
remove the radiator cap
when i removed the raditor cap the water comes out from the bleeding bolt
and it throws all the water from the bleeding bolt
i pour some more water which also comes out from the bleeding bolt
now off the engine put the bleeding bolt back
pour some water in the radiator
start the car with heater on
pour some more water to make the radiator full
and it leave it for five minutes ( but theses steps only solve 70 percent of my problem , i still have little bubbles in the radiator and also radiator makes pressure , when i open the radiator cap it sounds like opening of 7up bottle )

now i plan to service the radiator

( please get in touch with me so that we can find out the solution of our problem )

I think u r not doing it right.
Leave everything & just follow this (moti moti karwai)
- open radiator cap ( when cold)
- fill it to top & start the car
- leave it running & watch the bubble coming out
- squeeze all big black pipes periodically
- keep filling the water if required
- now wait till big bubbles stop & small white foam like bubbles appear
- after some time that foam will also reduce & eventually go away
Now it's done & be patient as it may take abt 15-20 mins

& yes the pressure is a normal thing. If a car doesn't pressurize the system then u should b worried.
Keep an eye on the reserve bottle & don't fill it to top. Just fill it till upper mark

even I dont have any overheating problem my car never overheated except once and that too was a minor heat for just a few seconds and the temp went a little over half not at the full mark and after removing the thermostat valve it never went over half,my car doesnt give any smoke and no engine oil water mix infact the oil is in very good condition its 2k kms after the last oil change and the oil colour is still the same as it was when it was new, I think my head bolts or not tight or the worst case is the head gasket ,took it to a honda dealership yesterday and he said the same ,its the Head bolts if not then the gasket ...
will try to bleed the air tomorrow yar plz specify my where the bolt is I couldnt find it ,plz take a picture or help me locate it

[billa69]

okay let me know which gasket you're going for,original metal one which comes from the factory or the fiber one and from which mechanic , and would you go for head facing while changing the gasket ??

[prince101]

today i got to machanic for head gaskit change but he advice me to not to change the gaskit because their is very minor leak in the gaskit and i have no other problems like heatup or oil and water mixup only i face a problem of radiator throw water in the bottle so he advice me , not change the gaskit and drive the car for some time with daily check the water level in the radiator , i asked him can i take the car on high way in this situation he says yes you can take the car on high way but check the water level after every 70 to 80 kilometers . so i come back home and cancel the idea of head gaskit change i decide to drive the car for sometime and if face any problem then go for head gaskit change .

Now i need experts opinion that is it a good decision or not ? , XULFIQAR bahai please reply

Thanx for your reply , yar first of all i want to tell you that i am not an expert as this is my first car and i use it from last 6 months so i did not know any thing related to cars .
Yes you are right , my mechanic is very honest man and i found him after very hard work , his work shop is located in the front of airport on the main shahr e faisal on the name of omer autos located in the chota gate auto mechanic market , he is an old man and have a lot of experience
For bleeding the air form the colling system follow the following steps.
Open the radiator cap
Start the car
Fill the water in radiator till the neck of the raditor if water level drops add more water
and now squeeze the big radiator hose pipes
leave the car start for 15 to 20 minutes and squeeze the pipes after every 2 minutes
Give some race after every 3 to 4 minutes
off the engine
Put the radiator cap back

Get Your Gasket Replaced If Its Bad.......!! You Don't Want To Replace Whole Head Later If It Gets Worse And Overheat ...!!

Who Knows From Where Its Leak.......! Might Cause Oil Water Mix Sometime Resulting In Serious Damage...!

So If Its Broken...Get It Replaced....! Since You Have Done Everything Regarding Air Bleed...There Should Be No Doubts

Thats exactly what the Honda pit shop mechanic told me ,he asked me not to change the gasket as its a very minute leak and its not advisable to open the head again n again

yar can you tell me where do I find that bleeder valve in a 2006 civic eagle eye shape ?? will try my luck aswell by bleeding the air I hope air ka he massla ho nothing else

[SER_GTR]

Havn't Check It But Its Always Somewhere Where Water Flanges Are ......! Where Mostly TOP Most Radiator Pipe Or Water Sensors Are Fitted.....Find A 12mm or 14mm Bolt There....!!!

[Xulfiqar]

there is no bleeder on the Pakistani assembled civics, the japanese models have a bleed nipple on the top radiator pipe flange.. To bleed, you need to park the car nose up and squeeze the pipes with engine running and heater running at full to remove all air.

You can also try to use the small coolant pipes on the back of the engine to bleed air - they go to the throttle body.
