Sorry,
    I thought about the clarity of the message about an hour after I 
wrote it. Kind of got of on a tangent (you all know how emotional some 
of these LBC subjects can make you). I meant to imply that if the head 
gasket is faulty then there may be a good chance that exhaust gases are 
able to escape into the cooling system and overpressurize it. 
    I agree with your suggestion to check the rad cap, forgot about 
that one. Didn't work in my case anyway. Better now? ;)
