radiator splashing
When I am lugging the engine on a hill...for example...unable to down shift to 2nd gear without slowing down a lot, double clutching, and grinding gears only to end up lugging in 2nd because the gear change took so long... sometimes I get anti-freeze splashing out of my radiator cap. The car is not over-heating at that point. What causes that burst of pressure that is expelling anti-freeze? I have found that I need to keep the fluid level so low that I can not see or even feel it when I stick my finger in the radiator. That reduces it...but it still happens when I hit the right situation. I have thoroughly flushed the system and the car does not seem to be over-heating.
Any suggestions?
