When I hit the trottle hard, water squirts from my windshield washers - hard enough to hit the glass - not just a little dribble.
Any ideas? Certainly it's not causing problems but I've never seen this happen. Maybe too much pressure in the cooling system? It shares that resevoir? I've got a new radiator and cap.
Thanks

My '90 F150 is doing the same thing, and when it goes around a hairpin turn at high speed, it squirts too. I can't figure it out, but it doesn't seem to hurt anything.

Maybe when you hit it hard, the engine gets really happy, and can't express its excitement in any other way....


Primary rig is NOW TOTALLED :-X23 :
