No, It would only raise the boiling point higher and drop the freezing point lower.
Many automatic transmissions use a cooler inside the vehicles radiator to help maintain the transmissions temperature. The transmission pumps ATF thru the cooler. If a leak occurs in the trans cooler the ATF is pumped into the radiators coolant. The engine coolant can also mix with the trans ATF and enter the transmission the same way in which case would be fatal for the transmission.
The assumption is that you are discussing the radiator fan. Radiator fans run as long as the coolant is above a certain temperature. If the sensor is faulty it could be forcing the coolant fan to remain on even after the temperature has dropped to normal
If there are lines coming from the transmission to the radiator, it has a cooler in the radiator. If there are lines from the transmission to an external heat exchanger, that would be an auxiliary cooler.
This usually happens when it's been overfilled or has coolant entering the transmission through a leaky transmission cooler, if it is a vehicle that has the cooler inside the radiator.
In systems that do not have a radiator cap, the coolant is drained by the radiator drain plug. It is filled by adding coolant to the system through the overflow bottle.
blown head gasket....not good. Could b Transmission fluid because the transmission cooler is in the radiator-especially IF the water has a red tint 2 it,IF it has a automatic transmission.
If the radiator is cracked then the vehicle has ran dry on coolant. This would cause the radiator to crack if there wasn't any coolant.
low coolant and/or radiator leak or maby a bad temp sensor low coolant and/or radiator leak or maby a bad temp sensor
there is no real radiator cap. On the left side of engine compartment there is a coolant jug. This where you would add coolant to radiator.
Hi,The main device that cools a cars engine is the radiator, however to state that is not exactly true. Car engines run hot, and this is to increase the efficiency of the engine. The thermostat in the engine, and the temperature probe in the radiator are all set to keep the engine at a predetermined factory set temperature. The cooling fan behind the radiator will only work when the temperature of the engine goes over the predetermined temperature, to bring it back down. Notice the word temperature not cool in the explanation. Like the human body temperature is monitored.------There's some inaccuracies in the above answer. The radiator does not directly cool a car's engine - it cools the coolant which passes through it.The whole cooling system is the "device" you're referring to. That would be the water pump, radiator, hoses, and thermostat. When the thermostat reaches a predetermined temperature, it opens up and allows coolant to flow through the motor. The most basic law of thermal dynamics is that heat always flows to a cooler object. Thus, the heat from the engine flows to the coolant in a heat exchange. The heated coolant then is cycled to the radiator, where another heat exchange takes place - this time, the heat from the coolant transfers to the air which is passing through the radiator. This is why it's important to keep air flow to the radiator (as well as the air conditioning condenser) unobstructed.Additionally, the airflow over the motor created by the engine fan also creates a heat exchange, where heat from the engine is transferred to the cooler air flowing over the engine.
Bad temperature sensor? Plugged or restricted radiator? Water pump not circulating coolant? Thermostat not opening? System airbound?
When you say "hoses". I would think you are talking about the cooler hoses from the transmittion to the radiator. They go to the radiator. there is an transmittion oil cooler built in to the radiator. the cooler is just a coil of metal pipe in the coolant(anti-freeze). It doesn't matter witch way the hoses go (in or out), it will still work fine. If it the vaccum hose that you are talkintg about, it goes to the intake manifold.
