Fitted new engine Laurie pettit so good quality but overheats aftera short journey when drining in urban area, at speed on a roads its OK. When van stops can hear a gurgling bubbling sound in the engine area.
Is this a radiator bleed requirement or something else i have missed.
Advice sort please.
thanks
