[Healeys] 100/4 BN1 overheating

[wilkmanracing at aol.com]

 Another next step would be to check for a blown head gasket.  You can check
your radiator for exhaust gasses with one of the blue liquid test kits.  Napa
sells them.  Another sign would be water in your oil.  You may see this on the
dip stick or you can drain the oil and see if any water is in there.
