...water blowing out the radiator 3 feet? new rad, new thermostat, bled it from the screw above the thermostat. if i put the cap on it bubbles out the over flow. checked the compression, looks normal. starts up runs sounds great, but once it warms up a bit it starts bubbling and popping and shooting water out the top of the radiator, is it possible to have a blown head gasket and the compression check be normal? did a leak down test also and it was good. could it be the timing? i did the whole tdc thing but i haven't been able to put it at 18 degrees btdc because im afraid that if the head gasket is good i don't want to blow it! book says to run heater full, did. any questions please ask! PLEASE HELP!
