René no all good..nothing broke I just got stuck and very angry on MYSELF

1) did not retighten the slamps..what a mistake, I did retighten everything but the clamps
2) not very solid clamps ..good for garden hoses but not for car!
2) the cap is wrong too high pressure was 20 libs resulting in too high pressure in the system enforcing the mess
3) yes all tubing has this bead..

New 20mm clamps with M5 screws, new cap with 13 libs..and an other day work and then endless air bleeding..no no issue..I am just angry on my stupidity.

I hope nothing happend to the engine, well I did drive only 500 meters after the "blowing Waale" noice came on..and then at stop/engine off still lots of cooling liquide came out....

(Pascal was here to see me yesterday ..sending regards)
