Hello guys, new here on the forum from Texas! Ive been in the nissan scene since 04'..Anyways, i have purchased a rb25 from the jdm importers over here.The motor seems to be great, until i turn on the a/c. I get a boil in the back of the motor that continues to boil the more i drive...Or if i shut off the a/c, boil will eventully stop once temp gets to 195f-198.. If i drive with the a/c off it will stay at 195f-198f.. If i drive with the a/c on it will stay around 210f-212F.. It never has shot coolant out to the reservoir, like a overheat condition... Tried multiple radiator caps. Im aware of turbo thermosyponing boil after the motor is off...But, this boil i have is with motor running while i drive, if i really trash on it the boil will spread to the upper radiator hose, only with a/c on...IM STUMPED and i dont want another sr20 lol ..Please help me guys!
Heres a list of everything that is good. Headgasket, thermostat, new dual row aluminum radiator, Good clean condensor, condensor fan works fine , clutch fan, fan shroud, coolant 50/50 also tried 70/30 distilled.. heater core is good. Water pump is very strong..All hoses are new, no coolant leaks at all..Even added a bleeder valve on my heater core hose to bleed air..
Does have a freddy intake manifold with a new cometic gasket properly torqued down. No smoke in tail pipe, no oil in coolant, spark plugs are great..
Passed headgasket chemical combustion test and leak down test radiator/coolant system pressure test.
The motor works perfectly fine idles great, but i have a boil when a/c is on.
O yea forgot..ambient temps are 100f here haha
