HELP!!! My wife has a 2001 "Y" Fiat Punto 1.2 8V. The problem we have is it seems to leak water out the rad cap and if the header is on cold the temperature gauge wizzes up and the car overheats. If when the gauge starts wizzing up she moves the heater control to hot then the gauge goes back to normal. The heater works fine and there is no oil in the water to indicate a head gasket problem. I have changed the rad cap just in case but this has made no difference. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. Regards
