hello. ive had some problems with my car as you can see from my other thread, but i might of fixed it...

1) how much oil can my car hold when topping up? (2002 1.1 desire)

2) when the car is ticking over and is warm, if i undo the watercap should water squirt out?

3) would an airlock in water system cause the heating inside the car to stay cold?

Thanks

1) not sure but wont be more than 4 to 5 litres i shouldnt imagine but as i say i aint sure. just fill slowly and keep checkin dip stick. 2) yes so dont do it water will be boiling and can cause nasty burns no need to open it when car is hot just wait till it cools down and 3) yes but that can also be caused by a few other things heater matrix knackered, head gasket gone etc etc

1) According to haynes, the engine takes 3.5 litres (to max) when drained and had the filter changed. and there is 1.5 litres between min and max markings
