Huh?Pushing out where? From the head gasket there? Your head is not level hence the leak?

They open the rad cap and plug the custom make container to view the rad water condition. The rad water will coming out from rad while pressing the gas pedal and it will back to normal during engine idle
 
They claimed the rad water level in the container should be going down instead of going up during accerelation. Now they said this situation is due to head gasket kong edy and need to proceed the top overhaul
 
Yup bro.... so need to do the top overhaul? And they said need around 1week to settle....

I have seen my mechanic test that way too, sign of blown head gasket. If not too sure, maybe get a second opinion. But this is what I found in the net too.....

If your head gasket has sprung a leak, air bubbles are liable to find their way into your radiator. In order to confirm the presence of air bubbles, carefully remove your radiator cap; then, give your vehicle's engine ample time to warm up. Next, proceed to rev your engine several times. If air bubbles emerge, you will know what to do.

Should be quite confirm head gasket issue as yesterday this statement said by 2 foreman... my wallet going to leak as well :bawling::bawling::bawling:
 
wooo... that kinda test yeah.

Better get it done before the head gasket breaks even more and leaks coolant into the engine. If you reach that stage wallet won't only be koyak, it's gonna kering!
 
This is exactly what happened to my previous car, so I had new gasket but the problem was still going... Turned out to be a bad radiator so that's new radiator and head gasket...
