It all depends on what kind of car you have. Most of them you have to press down very hard to be able to turn counterclockwise and remove.
Joe, I have a 1996 Chevy Blazer. Would you know how to do it on it?
The radiator does not have a cap, instead, the coolant system reservoir is also pressurized and the pressure cap is on the reservoir.
The 2000 Saturn does not have a distributor. Instead it uses a "coil pack" system.
No that's a clogged radiator issue. However if the engine over heats to much, the head will warp and you'll need a new one. Replace your radiator, Engine Coolant Temperature Sensor, and thermostat.
You don't fix it you replace it. Drain the radiator, replace the hose, and the thermostat, flush the system, install a 50/50 mixture of antifreeze and water, bleed the system.
The radiator drain plug on a Chrysler Sebring is located on the bottom, left side of the radiator. It allows for coolant to be quickly drain from the system.
no, it's on the reservoir. Yes, the radiator "system" has a pressure-release cap located on the plastic coolant fill bottle. This bottle is an active part of the cooling system, and is where you add coolant to the system

1) remove radiator cap2) Fill radiator with coolant.3) replace radiator cap4) remove reservior cap5) fill to "fill cold" line6) replace reservior capIf your system not very low or empty you can omit 1-3.

The hose is soft and mushy inside. Replace the hose. Possible clogged radiator. Replace the hose first. You also might have a clogged radiator core. Have a reputable radiator shop check and flush your cooling system.
The heater core has no overflow hose. Cooling system is a closed loop system and the only overflow hose is the one going from the radiator cap to the reservoir. A thermostat that is stuck closed will cause the engine to overheat. Drain and flush the radiator, replace the thermostat, install a 50/50 mix of antifreeze and distilled water, bleed air from the system. You may also need to replace the radiator cap. Be sure and replace these parts with OEM parts.The heater core has no overflow hose.

No, just replace the radiator. The other one (in the front) is the condenser for the a/c system.
