How do you pressure check a car radiator for leaks?

You attach a pressure test kit to where the radiator cap goes, and pressurize the system. If it holds pressure, it's good.


How do you replace coolant on a Chrysler voyager 1999?

First, remove the radiator cap. If car is still warm, turn radiator cap about 1/4 turn to relieve the pressure. Then, I find it much easier to remove the lower radiator hose from the radiator. It's much quicker than draining it from the petcock.


What can cause no pressure in upper and lower radiator hoses if radiator radiator cap thermostat water pump and hoses have all been replaced?

Actually if car is not running hot and temp gauge is staying within range then car is probably fine. I've seen a few that didn't have a lot of pressure on hoses because the flow of coolant was just that good. If you have too much pressure on a hose then you may need to worry.

Why will hot water leak more rapidly than cold water through small leaks in a car radiator?

It is not so much the temperature of the water but the pressure that the hot water produces. If you will look at almost any car radiator cap you will notice a warning that says something to the effect'warning contents under pressure. Do not remove when hot.'
