The radiator may be pushing coolant back into the overflow due to a few potential issues, such as a malfunctioning radiator cap that fails to maintain proper pressure, allowing coolant to escape. Additionally, a clogged radiator or a failing water pump can disrupt coolant flow, leading to overheating and fluctuations in temperature readings. Air trapped in the cooling system can also cause irregular coolant circulation, exacerbating temperature fluctuations. Regular maintenance can help prevent these issues and ensure optimal cooling system performance.

What is the hose that goes from the overflow to the bottom of the rad on a 2002 windstar?

The hose that goes from the overflow to the bottom of the radiator on a 2002 Windstar is the bypass hose. It allows coolant from the overflow to return to the radiator as it cools.

Why does a car need a overflow jug for the radiator?

In a radiator, the fluids get really hot, when things get hot they expand and then they have to go somewhere, the fluid goes into an overflow.


Why did the radiator overflow bottle overflow?

The overflow bottle may overflow if: 1. The car is overheating - this means after the coolant in the radiator gets heated up and expands it flows to the reserve bottle but the radiator doesn't cool down to suck back the coolant from the overflow bottle, but just keeps on sending coolant to the bottle. 2. You may have put excess coolant in the bottle - hence heated coolant from the radiator didn't get enough space.
