On my Healey, it only occurs when parked after going for a drive on a =
hot summer day. While driving, the coolant temp is about 190 degrees. =
Yes, when parked, there is expansion as you state; it will not boil over =
if the radiator is not overfilled.

Mine never go over 212degF. Another seven degrees or so and you got a =
boilover with std. 7psi cap (if I remember my science correctly).

G'day All,
Reading the various threads of late, I read about a temperature gauge =
reading almost into the oil gauge...I had this problem with my BJ8 when =
using a so called waterless coolant...which in fact is endothermic =
(which means it absorbs heat...not dissipates it) and on heat soak after =
switch off the following pics tell the story...
I fixed the problem by draining and flushing all the waterless coolant =
out and refilling with demineralised water and adding Penrite Classic =
Coolant additive.
Problem solved...no more overheating!!
Happy Healeying,
