  1. My model of MX-5 is: __mk1
  2. I’m based near: __ Birmingham
  3. I’m looking for technical help or recommendations on: coolant flush.

Just done a coolant flush, left the radiator cap off and turned the car on, few bubbles came out but coolant started to leak out, put the heaters on full max and more coolant started to come out. Topped it up a bit and now it seems as though it’s smoking, could this just be the cooolant residue burning off or something more?

Thanks

More details wheres coolant coming out of, helps

Was coming out of the main radiator hose, I’m thinking could it just be the radiator is covered in coolant hence causing the smoke, engine temp is just under half

Could be but no guarantee.

Where was it leaking from?

Was the car smoking before?

Is the heater putting out very hot air into the car?

Do you have the nose of the car lifted?
