Why would the radiator on a 1991 Mazda RX7 have to be refilled everyday when the coolant is not leaking the oil shows no signs of water or coolant and the heater is not smoking or leaking?
Refilling the Radiator Constantly on an RX7It is possible that either the head is cracked/warped, or the head gasket may also be faulty. This would cause coolant to be 'burned' in the combustion chamber, and it would travel out the tail pipe. If an excessive amount were being consumed, it would likely cause the vehicle to emit smoke out the tail pipe, however. A reputable radiator shop or your mechanic would be able to determine if there is a problem in the head.This Answer is so incorrect it is unbelievable. ROTARY'S i.e. RX7's DON'T HAVE HEADS!!!!!!!Try droping your exhaust manifold off and checking for water inside the extractors would be my first go and crank the motor over with the extractors off to check for moistore coming out that way!
Would a cracked air pipe cause a car to shake?
Which "air pipe" are you talking about? If it's something before the throttle body, no, it wouldn't. If it's part of the EGR valve, a large vacuum line or other significant emissions device, yes, it certainly could.To many people the EGR valve assembly on some vehicles can look like "an air pipe". If that's cracked you're allowing some of the cylinders to run very "lean" and that can cause burned valves or pistons.
Why would your coolant leak on your 2002 Chevy pickup?
There are a number of reasons: 1. Faulty thermostat can cause the fluid to overheat and expand; thus causing the fluid to vent from the overflow pipe. 2. A punctured radiator hose, or a broken seal can cause loss of fluid. 3. Damaged radiator core.
How can I stop steam radiator from banging?
It depends on the type of system you have. 1 pipe in, or 1 pipe in and 1 pipe out. Single pipe in/out, try replacing the relief valve or simply shimming the end of the radiator opposite where the pipe comes in. This lets water bleed out of the radiator and stops the klanging.

Probably the Thermostat has corroded and jamed. Or the ceramic pipe joins behind the engine are cracked. I would check these.
