Why does your top radiator get soft while the engine is running?
If the question is: why does your top radiator hose get soft while the engine is running? If that's what u want to know, it's because the thermostat in the engine opens to flow the coolant thru the motor to keep the operating temperature from getting to hot. It's stores water in the radiator which cools the water and the thermostat blocks it until a predetermined temp.

How do you know your engine thermostat has failed?
If you car engine is running hot and you are watching that temperature gauge climb higher and higher, especially while sitting in traffic, you know something is wrong. There is a normal process of elimination to follow to discover what the problem is, but first focus on the thermostat to see if it is the culprit before running out and buying a new one you may not even need. *also engine that runs too cool is often cause by a broken thermostat as well

Follow hose from radiator to engine. The hose at top of radiator near coolant reservoir tank. Where it connects to engine is where the thermostat is. There are two screws. Stripped mine. You know its the thermestat because the hose going there stays hard after running engine for a while, and you would be able to squeeze it if the thermostat opened up.
