Re: water boiling in radiator bottle 700 89

There's also a device known as a "block tester" that's sold by tool salesmen like SnapOn, Matco, MAC (theguys who go to auto shops) and most experienced techs own one of these. It detects carbon monoxide in the gases (bubbles) coming from your bubbling coolant and instantly tells the tech that exhaust is entering the cooling system. Most likely a warped head which can usually be machined and re-installed with a new headgasket.
