What happens when a radiator reservoir is cracked?
You need to but a new one soon or your car will overheat from lack of pressure to keep the water cooled. Compared to most car parts they are inexpensive.
What would make the low water level light come on in a 1999 Oldsmobile Intrigue But the car does not run hot?
The low water level sensor is in your radiator overflow resivoir. The reservoir is supposed to have a certain amount of coolant in it but if it's low, the light comes on. This has nothing to do with the radiator being empty. True, if the reservoir is left unchecked the radiator may eventually become low and then you will overheat but until then, it's just telling you the reservoir is low.
