Why is 1998 Honda accord leaking antifreeze?

The car started to overheat so I checked under the hood and seen it leaking from the radiator hose, not the side where the radiator is attached, but the side that runs into the motor. I messed with the clamp and it seemed to stop leaking. I let it run for a good half an hour with no leaking or overheating. I drove it a day later to a shop about 10 mins away to have tires put on it. Then today I picked it up and drove it for about 15 mins. I then drove it right away again, and within about 5-10 mins it was over heating again. I let it sit while I ate dinner and then added more antifreeze to it. It seems to be eating the antifreeze! What could this be?

Why is it that when added antifreeze to your car and then when you drove it it started to leak and your car was smoking really bad then after you got home and turned it off you found what you think WA?

did you add the anti freeze directly to the radiator or to the overflow tank? if you added to the radiator when engine was still warm the radiator just boiled the new anti freeze right out of the overflow tube and onto your engine which made it look like smoke[steam]. Have your system flushed and checked for leaks. It could be just gunked up or you could have a leak. The worst would be a bad water pump but stop adding antifreeze unless its just to get to the garage{and unless your up in Alaska or buffalo,NY mix at least 1/3 water in with the anti freeze. your wasting money because you don't need 100% pure antifreeze in most of the U.S.


1997 Monte Carlo overheating only leaking coolant through reserve Replaced thermostat radiator water pump and intake gasket Hopefully not too costly Just replaced tranny before overheating started?

If a 1992 Ford Explorer was overheating so you removed the radiator cap while running to test for problems and coolant started shooting out as the truck temperature increased what could this be?

More than likely you have a head gasket out. This cause's exhaust to come back up thru the radiator. Check your oil to make sure you are not getting any antifreeze in the oil. Prob. not but don't drive it till you get it fixed. Good luck.


What type of coolant to use in a 1999 Dodge Intrepid?

HOAT (Universal) Antifreeze purchased at any Wal-Mart which is a combination of IAT (green) antifreeze and regular OAT (usually yellow, red or orange) antifreeze. Chrysler started using the universal stuff after a short experiment with GM's "Dexcool" (OAT). I used dexcool in my Intrepid because I had leftover from my Chevy Malibu of the same year because it was the same color (orange) and nothing has happened yet but the color of antifreeze is just a dye and shouldn't be used to determine the type of coolant you should use. I had no manual but I figured it out by researching online. I recomend flushing the radiator first as well before switching to regular green (IAT) antifreeze or you could even use 10% green and 90% OAT to make your own universal HOAT antifeeze (Hybrid Antifreeze) which is only a combo of both IAT and OAT antifreeze. Hope that answers your question.

What does it mean in a car auction reserve off?

No reserve means the seller will accept what ever the highest bid is. If an owner started the bidding with a reserve price (meaning minimum amount to sell at auction) and the owner, at some point during the bidding, asks to have the reserve removed (will then take highest bid) the term Reserve Off is used to say that now the car will go to the highest bidder.
