Or, if everything else is operating properly, it could be the thermostat or a blocked radiator, but I'd focus on the thermostat first.
Be certain that the engine is at normal operating temperature when looking to see if coolant is circulating. A properly operating thermostat will prevent the circulation of coolant while engine temperatures are below operating temperature.
What else can I help you with?
How do I add water to a low radiator with out a radiator cap?
There is a water reservoir tank that goes to the radiator that you can add the water to.
What is the name of the hose that the water goes through to the engine for a 2002 Monte Carlo ss?
You have a top radiator hose and a bottom radiator hose.
How does hot water flow in a radiator?
Hot water flows through a radiator by entering through one side and exiting through the other. The hot water passes through the radiator's tubes or fins, transferring its heat to the surrounding air in the room. The heated air rises, creating convection currents that help circulate the warmth throughout the space.
What is the purpose of water in a car's radiator?
The radiator cools the water which then goes to your engine to cool it off, as cool water enters your engine hot water from the engine enters your radiator
What do you do if all of your antifreeze goes into your reservoir?
Put it back into your radiator. You have a head/ headgasket failure. You will need repair.
Why does the hose from the radiator to the thermostat lose pressure it gets no water through it?
coolant in engine enters radiator at the bottom, goes up thru radiator and exits radiator at top. i would think your radiator is clogged up try a good,(expensive) radiator flush to see it that fixes proble,
Which radiator hose goes to the engine?
In most cases the lower radiator hose feeds the water pump. The upper radiator hose feeds the radiator.
Water is not getting to your car's engine It goes through the radiator but not to the engine What could the problem be?
The thermostat would be the first thing I would check.
What is the housing at the top end of the radiator hose?
The inlet to the radiator. Hot water from the engine goes in to be cooled.
What is the part that goes between the two hoses in a radiator system?
The part that goes between the two hoses in a radiator system is typically the radiator itself. It serves as a heat exchanger where coolant from the engine flows through one hose into the radiator, is cooled by airflow, and then returns to the engine through the other hose. Additionally, there are components like the thermostat and water pump that help regulate coolant flow, but the radiator is the central component connecting the two hoses.
Can liquids conduct thermal energy?
Yes, all of them do. The most common liquid that conducts thermal energy is, of course, water. We put water - with a little ethylene glycol (anti-freeze) - into the radiator of your car. When you start the car, the engine gets hot, because of the gasoline and air exploding in each cylinder. Water running through the cooling manifold picks up the heat and cools the engine. The water runs through the heater core of your car and some of the heat is transferred to the air blowing into your car. The water then goes back into the radiator, and the heat from the water is transferred to the air going through the radiator. The now-cooled water goes back through the engine.
What is the name of the bottom hose on a vauxhall vectra that goes from the water pump and the bottom of the radiator?
lower radiator hose
