Why would steam be coming out from the radiator cap?
Radiator caps are pressure relief valves. They are rated at "pounds per square inch" and are designed to release some pressure from the radiator if it gets too high. If an engine overheats it can boil the coolant and this will cause the radiator cap to let out steam. Radiator caps DO lose their ability to regulate pressure and can release too soon. If the engine has not overheated, have the radiator cap tested and replaced as necessary.
Why a car needs a radiator to operate effectively?
The process of the engine creates huge amounts of heat. Water is past through the engine block (that is where the cylinders are ) where it collects heat from the case body of the engine block and its taken to the radiator where air is passed through the radiator cooling the water. The cycle continues. If the water did not circulate then the engine would expand considerably, the cylinders will also then expand as would the moving parts to the point where the friction would cause the engine to cease up.

2004 trailblazer How much coolant will come out of water pump if you do not drain it?
I assume you want to change out the water pump and would like to know if you can do it without draining the radiator. You will lose approximately all the coolant in the radiator reservoir when you remove the radiator hose from the water pump. If the coolant is in good, clean condition, it might be wise to drain the radiator into a container and re-use the coolant.

Why is it too hot in car radiator?
The most common reason for overheating of a car radiator is that there is not enough water in the radiator. Radiators can lose water in a variety of ways, and often need to be refilled. The other possibility is that the water is not being circulated properly. I should add that cars do heat up quite a bit in the sunlight on a hot day, which adds significantly to the chances of overheating the radiator.
