On an 83� water-cooled Westy the coolant level repeatly rises and ultimnately overflows. The system has been carefully bled per instrucitons in the archives, but the problem recurrs. I suspect that combustion gases are getting past the piston gasket and into the coolant. Is this a problem others have experienced? Is there a test that might confirm this? Is retorquing the heads likely to help or am I looking at replacing the gaskets? TIA Geo Hahn 84 Westy
