If there is a coolant leak that is caused by the bleeding screw, the screw is probably stripped and needs to be replaced. The screw can also be wrapped with plumber's tape and screwed back in until the leak can be fixed.
If it had no leaks it would not be loosing coolant. So therefore it does have a leak. It can be leaking in a spot where the coolant burns away before dripping on the ground. Also a blown head gasket is a possibility. Look for coolant in the oil. A heater core can leak. Do you smell coolant inside the car or are the windows fogging up or developing a film. You need to have a pressure test run on the cooling system and find this leak.
If the drain plug under the evaporator coil is plugged up it will cause condensation to leak into the car. If the heater core is bad it will allow coolant to leak into the car. If the leak is warm and smells sweet it is the heater coil.
While it's possible that the heater core is leaking, it's probably a hose. Are you certain that it's coolant? When the AC compressor is on, either during the summer or when the defroster is running, you will get condensation dripping from that area. it is a large coolant leak. just not sure what line it is coming from.. there is alot of lines in the leak area. can the core be taken out under the dash or does the dash have to be removed. thanks for the help
your engine will get hotter after you shut off the engine. the coolant thus getts hotter the fluid then expands causing the drip
Your heater core has a leak in it requiring replacement of the heater core. It will continuously leak as it is part of the cooling system for the engine, and is under pressure. Above is true if it is antifreeze and not water. Don't rule out a plugged drain hole in the wiper transmission area or water leak from the body.
If a coolant leak were caused by brake work, I'd never have that person work on my brakes - ever. Just the brakes, I would think it highly unlikely that it would result in a coolant leak. If they were replacing the master cylinder, then I could see a possibility of someone inadvertently causing a coolant leak, but that would still even be a stretch.
I need to perform a faucet repair. How do I stop a leak that is caused by the screw not being tight enough on the valve?
You have a coolant leak.You have a coolant leak.
Wet passenger flood is caused by either a leak in the air conditioning drain line or a leak in the windshield sealant or a coolant leak coming from the heater core.
Yes, IF the leak is not so severe as to overheat the engine. Any coolant leak needs to be repaired as soon as possible to prevent engine damage caused by overheating.
There are a few reasons why a 97 Lincoln Town car might have a coolant leak. One would be due to a split or broken hose. Another reason is due to a crack or leak in the block, or it could be caused by the radiator cap leaking.
The coolant will normally leak into the oil or into the cylinder
Because some opening formed which is allowing coolant to leak out.
Any coolant leak can cause an overheat.Any coolant leak can cause an overheat.
Yes, the water pump can leak if you do a coolant flush.
If you do not visibly see a coolant leak, have the cooling system pressure tested. If the leak is not obvious it could be internal.
In general, yes a coolant leak in a 2002 Bonneville can be fixed. The issue whether it is worth the money to fix the leak. If the coolant is leaking from an upper or lower coolant hose, the repair is simple and inexpensive. If the coolant leak is from the radiator, it will be a bit more difficult and/or expensive to repair. Moving up the scale, if the coolant leak is coming from a manifold gasket, it will be still more expensive. Likewise for a coolant leak from the heater core. And at the upper end of the scale, if you are leaking coolant from a cracked engine block, you're looking at replacing the engine.
