Wasps in Engine

Post by topao »

I noticed my Coolant had disappeared after filling it up after driving from syd to kiama so i replaced my hoses with the Samco ones. Ever since i replaced them when starting the car the engine literally sounds like there's wasps in it. I was hoping i'd spilt some oil on one of the belts and it was slipping but there all fine so i must be something in the enigne???

Did you prime the cooling system?
Also have you put the hood up to see if you can pinpoint the area it's coming from?

Thanks, i re checked the power steering dipstick and it was empty so i topped it up again, it's now working perfectly.
