Why is coolant coming out through radiator cap on 1993 Pontiac grand am?
If the engine is cold... it could mean that the radiator cap is too weak to hold and you need to get a new one. If the engine is HOT... it could mean that you have overheated it and you need to add water after the engine has cooled a bit, to prevent getting burned, be careful and use a towel to remove the cap to add coolant.
Installed new radiator drove around the block engine overheated and now will not start?
You need to bleed the coolant system--follow the upper left radiator hose to the engine block, get a 12mm wrench, with the car running, unscrew the nut with a hole on top and loosen it a half turn till coolant starts seeping out. Retighten nut. With the car turned off and engine cooled down, check coolant level in radiator and overflow tank.

There are 2 reasons that I've heard of that may cause a car to overheat: 1. You need a new thermostat--the engine coolant is not getting into the engine 2.

Do block heaters and coolant heaters work the same?
yes in a way. block heaters heat the coolant in the block there for warming the block up. coolant heaters heat the coolant out side the engine like in the hoses and radiater. and when the coolant gets hot enough it opens the thermosate and starts flowing through the engine..The coolant heater should be hooked into the engine so that it heats only the engine and the heater core. If the coolant heater is trying to heat the radiator then it will not work very well to heat the engine, you would need a lot of BTUs to heat the radiator as it will shed all that heat to the air that is surrounding it.

Saturn's did not have a place on the radiator to fill the coolant; you'll need to look for the coolant reservoir, which was typically somewhere in front of the passenger.

(one for when the engine is hot, the other for when the engine is cool.) and do not open the reservoir when the engine is hot.
1997 JGC Laredo You have had the coolant sensor replaced but it still tells you that the coolant level is low does the computer need to be reset If so how is it done.?
There are two separate sensors that play here. the "coolant temperature sensor" and "coolant LEVEL sensor". I suggest confirming which of these was replaced, as it is very common for them to be confused. likely you will find the coolant sensor that was replaced was the one on the engine (temperature); The LEVEL sensor is mounted either in the coolant resivoir or in the radiator. Probably just need the proper sensor replaced.
