I have replace thermostat valve and now I can see engine oil mix
with radiator coolant.
Not exact matches
It would be better to drain from the
radiator, and fill
with the correct
coolant over several times.
Also check your
coolant reserve tank; if it's overfull (like all your
coolant is ending up in the tank but not making it back into the
radiator) could be an issue
with the tank, some hoses, or perhaps the
radiator cap.
I flushed the
radiator and filled it up
with new
coolant and ran it for 20 minutes only to find loads of oil in the
radiator again?
Air lock in
coolant system (
with engine cold and shut off, remove
coolant filler cap (fill to water level if required) then squeeze bottom
radiator hose several times until no air bubbles come from the place you filled
with water.
I got one from the junkyard (friend intends to junk the car in a few months and won't pay for a new
radiator), cleaned it out
with a household product that removes calcium, lime and rust, swapped it for his and filled it up
with proper
coolant.
As I said, I replaced the ETC and the engine
coolant level sensor on
radiator just below cap and the thermostat also
with no success.
I would purchase PURE
coolant (not the 50/50 mix), drain out a bit from the
radiator's drain cock and top it off
with coolant.
a mechanic told me to change the battery but i noted there was a time i used the
radiator coolant toped up
with little water it started up earlier cause the the engine wasn't to hot but from one of the responses i read
coolants was encouraged over water also does it mean i should avoid water totally and use
coolant alone?
When I refilled the system
with coolant after checking the thermostat, I poured the
coolant directly into the
radiator, instead of the reservoir.
I had struggled
with one of these block tests myself where the negative pressure in the void I created in the
radiator filler neck eventually created a vacuum that drew the
coolant into my tester.
I've got a Chevy Blazer
with the 4.3 V6, and right after replacing my water pump, I filled the
radiator -LRB-'til it seemed it wouldn't take anymore
coolant), cap'd it, and then started her.
A
radiator can flow great but not transfer heat if it is fouled
with coolant scale deposits.
I later hooked up a no spill funnel to the
radiator and
with its transparent bucket I could see bubbles winding up through the
coolant as we revved the engine.
I am fine
with that, and I certainly agree that a
radiator cap is easier to swap than a
coolant pump.
As you can see, this motor is filled
with oil galleys and has no
coolant or
radiator.
I'm not familiar
with the plumbing in this particular cooling system, but it is definitely normal for the fan to kick on after you turn off the car to continue pulling air through the
radiator to help cool the
coolant, but usually only when the outside temperatures are hot, as you mentioned.
I'd agree
with William, most cars run the
radiator fan after the car is turned off if the
coolant is too hot.
I'd need an oil change to get the water /
coolant / oil mixture out of the system, the
radiator flushed and replaced
with just plain water per the Blue Devil instructions.
What keeps a system cool is good airflow thru the
radiator, and a completely filled
coolant system
with the proper hoses and pressures.
Do I need to run the engine
with the
radiator cap off whenever I add
coolant to the
radiator or only when I drain / flush the system?
When I changed the water pump i drained the
coolant, and according to my mechanic, I blew my
radiator by not running the engine
with the cap off after changing the
coolant.
I would expect a normal operating temperature for your
coolant system to be from 180 °F to 230 °F or so (
with a good
radiator cap.)
I just recently had some overheating issues on my 4wd Tacoma and, after replacing the thermostat, water pump and
radiator cap, the truck drives fine
WITH JUST TAP WATER IN THE COOLANT SYSTEM (which I will replace with real coolant after I'm done testing) but, when I check the coolant spillover tank right after driving, I see it mildly boiling and I'm curious if that's a sign of potentially more overheating or is nor

About 6 months ago, I had a wreck and got the
radiator replaced (salvaged) and the mechanic (who I'm convinced now is an idiot) filled it up
with green
coolant along
with leaving several leaks.
Also, can I take off the cap to the
coolant overflow container and fill that without needing to run the engine
with the cap off the
radiator?
I think another reason I didn't notice the leak as much right when it started is it looks like the way it is damaged lets
coolant into the tank, but sucks outside air back into the
radiator, so a lot of the
coolant was initially just getting lost from the
radiator into the tank and replaced
with air.
If your
radiator fail then
coolant could mix
with the trans fluid and vice-versa.
The [heater core]-LRB-(https://www.yourmechanic.com/services/heater-is-not-working-inspection) is a small
radiator like unit that circulates the hot
coolant from the engine through the heater core which then uses this warm
coolant to heat the inside of the car
with the help of the blower...
In most cases, the
radiator coolant level sensor is going to be accessible from the top of the engine compartment and
with simply reaching down
with your hands.
There aren't many points where
coolant can come into contact
with transmission oil other than at the
radiator.
If you notice that
radiator coolant is dripping under your motor, it's a good warning sign that a problem exists
with one of the
coolant tubes.
Step 18: Refill
radiator with coolant.
A neon puddle of either green, pink, blue or orange that smells slightly sweet and feels slightly viscous between your fingers is indicating a problem
with your
radiator, water pump,
coolant reservoir or
radiator hoses.
Other details include a second, lower - temperature
radiator with its own electric
coolant pump that improves the intercooling of the intake air, particularly in very dynamic driving.
An engine oil cooler is integrated into the AMG front apron,
with an additional engine
coolant radiator located in the wheel arch.
They start
with slightly larger grilles in the front valance (for the engine
coolant radiators), fitted
with louvers that open or close to balance cooling demands and aero efficiency.

JLT Performance had the answer by color matching several of the components in Ingot Silver, including coil covers, Redline Tuning bolt - in hood lifters,
coolant and intercooler tank covers, along
with a hydro - dipped carbon fiber fuse box and
radiator cover.
The front features a single opening for the front grille and side air intakes,
with aerodynamic sections and profiles designed to direct air to the
coolant radiators and the new flat underbody.
If needed, we can flush your
radiator and fill it
with new
coolant.
