header tank split
hi, i drove my 95 sti to work the other day and when i got there i noticed water under the car, the header tank had split, i have now fitted another one but when i fill it up and run it on tick over, it builds up a massive amount of pressure and spits all the water back out, is there a way to fill it up to get rid of the air lock, or is there a problem with it, cheers phil.

i have just done a compression test, and the left side is fine at 12, but the right side are both at 8, so the head gasket has gone but i thought there would be less pressure, also the water stopped spitting out with the spark plugs out, thanks for all the help on both threads, phil.
