weird problem after a/c compressor R/R
ok guys, i have a weird problem. Today i removed and replaced my a/c compressor with a new used one. The system has not yet been charged. Here is the problem. I refilled the radiator and started the car, waited for the t-stat to open up for circulation and put some more coolant in the Rad. I then put the cap on and continued to let it idle. Temps were ok and everything seemed okay. Then i heard water pouring. Looked in the engine bay and the coolant resivour was spewing. I opened the cap, there was no pressure, looked inside and could see no water. Also i noticed when i revved the engine a little bit the top coolant hose constricted. What the hell is going on? any help is much apreciated

Sounds like you got some major air pockets, the bleed screws are important.
Reverse flow = your going to need to drive it to even get all the air out. Bleed it as best you can, keep it from overheating and then take it for a ride to get the rest out.Nick

i did take it for a lil drive...it didnt overheat any, but the overflow resivoir did overflow..lol. Like i said i tried to loosen the bleeder screw, but it was froze. I put some PB blaster on it and im letting it sit over night.
