Hi a friend of mine has got a hissing noise when on idle.
the hissing goes away when accelerating.
The water tank is also full (could this cause it)
Cheers

Hissing noise could be steam coming from a over filled coolant if it was to boil. Then maybe the engine might drown the noise out under load. ICV O-Ring is another common source of hissing at idle though. Does it idle erratically?

its idleing ok, she did have probs last week where it kept cutting out on her but got that sorted with new plugs and leads i think. the engine isnt drowning the noise out it stops when revved, could it be a vacume leak or something
