Hello, so today I decided I wanted to switch over my carb to a Weber. The Weber came with a nice looking intake so I decided to replace both. I kept the old gasket which was a metal one and in good shape. I kept everything clean and made sure nothing got in it. I also had a leak on my radiator so I replaced it also. While dialing in the Weber I left the fliter off bit didn't noticeanything that had went in. *I got the Weber on and dialed then replaced the radiator.* then replaced the radiator, I left the cap off for startup, not sure if some splashed out but I had noticed radiator fluid on the block. And alot of smoke so I turned her off. And the exaust manifold was very hot within few second of running. I then waited awhile started it back up but same thing with no appearing leak of coolant. Amy suggestions as of what to? Thanks in advance

While I was dialing it in it was fine.

Any suggestions?

Airpocket in the system, Maybe try pulling one of the heater hoses and force water back or force water into the radiator until it flows smooth out the heater hose.

Thanks for the suggestion punchy. I'll give it a shot in the morning. But I don't see how that could be causing so much smoke. But I guess I don't know much

I got the coming system 'burped'. still the same thing. Any other suggestions out their? Would it be okay to just let it run for a few minutes and see what happens?

Where exactly is the smoke coming from? Is it a puddle of coolant burning off? A hose dumping coolant out?

Can you post up a pic?

So after burping the system a second time it was more obvious that I have coolant leaks. It seems as if it's coming out of the header and dripping out. I checked all of the hoses for holes and all of the house clamps ate tightned. Also it's dripping of the intake, and I noticed a puddle of coolant was on the top of the intake. I keep looking for leaks. Also have a few pictures and a video

I replaced the radiator bottom hose for the radiator side. Started it up boom same thing, like I said it's coming out of the exhaust. Practicly spraying out. I mean what the frick. Does this mean a bad head gasket? I don't know why I keep fixing this thing or why I love it, it's one thing after another. Hopefully not every Toyota is like this is a pile of crap. I have a 20r in my parts truck, and a rebuilt block and head 22r. If you guys think that's what it is then I'm just trashing it. I bought it rebuilt just 7000 miles ago. I don't even know if I'll fix this pile of crap. What do you guys think it is. Please help
