Boiling coolant

Just for peoples future reference in case they experience the same.
My coolant was boiling over into the header tank.
Bled and bled and bled it.
Turnt out the fan wasn't kicking due to dicky connection at the stat switch.
Sorted.

And that's why you shouldn't put the header tank above your feet on the bulkhead!

Is that the wise voice of experience?

Its the wise voice of memory, one unlucky chap burnt his feet and iirc developed toxic shock too. Couldnt move his feet as he had to keep braking.
