Need help badly
Need help, well i rebuilt my 2001 ls1 pontiac ws6 ta and now when i start it and when it gets hot and i give it gas water blows out the raditor cap. What did i do wrong? Did i put the head gaskets on wrong and i just did how the instuctions told me.

The temp is normal 190/200 but when i driving and everytime i hit the gas water comes out the overflow then it starts going up cause the water low. And i have flushed it and still comes out.

Your not leaking water anywhere correct? Just blowing out of the radiator?? Does it stop blowing the water out if you let it run for a while? Or does it do it immediately? It could realistically on,y be a couple things for the cooling system I.e coolant temp sensor, thermostat, radiator (air pocket), and water pump

Before you do any of listed above get yourself a new radiator cap, I know some might think its crazy, but I have seen countless cooling problems solved by a new rad cap. It is the cheapest route at like 7-10 dollars to eliminate, its worth a shot. The springs in the cap lose tension and it allows coolant to blow past it. Just my 2 hope you get it fixed.

I changed the cap and still blowns out under the cap and comes out of the overflow. And when it cold and i leave the cap off and i go to start it blows a big stream out the radiator . Its got to b the head gasket wouldnt you think. I hope not but my lucksucks. Thanks everyone for the ideas.
