How does the overflow tank work?
if your water/antifreeze gets to hot it pushes out the over flow tube into the overflow container, as it cools down it will suck it out of the overflow and back into the radiator.
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.
After replacing radiator hose do you put coolant in the radiator and the overflow bottle or just the bottle?
With the engine cold, put it in the radiator just to be sure there is no air gap. Run it for a short time until it gets warm and coolant begins to circulate. Then install the radiator cap and put coolant in the overflow to the coolant level line.
What happens if the coolant in the overflow tank gets too full because it isn't getting sucked back into the radiator properly in a 1999 Plymouth Neon?
Coolant is pushed out of the radiator and into the overflow tank as it heats up and expands. The liquid is drawn back into the radiator as it cools and contracts. If it doesn't flow back the radiator will only be partly full (at least until the coolant warms fully again). The potentially large air gap left at the top of the radiator leaves metal parts open to corrosion. In extreme cases the engine could overheat. The fix, easy. Just replace the defective radiator cap and be sure the path from radiator to overflow tank is clean. Cheers
What happens to wee on airplanes?
There is a holding tank. When the plane gets to its destination they empty it.
Where do you connect the thin bottom hose from the coolant reservoir on a 1992 Mercury Capri not the one that connects to the top of the radiator?
Actually, this is an overflow hose. The hose shouldn't connect to anything. When the radiator warms up the fluid level in the reservoir tank may rise. If it gets too high, then the coolant will pour out of this overflow hose. If this is happening too often, you may have a blockage in your radiator.
What would cause gurgling on a 1997 Chevy Tahoe?
The pressure from the radiator is pushing out through the overflow canister. Probably solved with new radiator cap but could be an indication of head gasket problems if pressure gets too high.
What happens to the pressure and heat in the evaporator?
It escapes by heating the air round the radiator element.
Can replay card get empty any time?
When playing poker, there are times that the replay card usually gets empty. When this happens a player is required to take the previous cards and shuffle them.
What is the radiator capacity of a 1999 Jeep Wrangler 6-cylinder?
The 1999 Wrangler is equipped with an overflow tank. The amount iof coolant to add to the radiator is slightly less than 2 gallons. Be sure to use either a 50/50 coolant (pre-mixed with water) or a gallon of concentrated coolant mixed with an equal amount of water. You will have about 3/4 inch of coolant left in the container when the radiator is full. The overflow tank is there to hold coolant when the radiator gets warm and needs to expell some of the coolant. So just fill the radiator with coolant. You'll know when it's full.
What happens when you overfill car with antifreeze?
I don't think you can actually overfill a car with antifreeze. There is an overflow chamber that prevents this. Perhaps this overflow can be overfilled but in that case the worst thing that can happen is the little plastic cover pops off and you get some excess antifreeze on the ground. It might also depend on the car. when car gets hot it will push coolant to reservoir (expansion) and when cold, into radiator. this is the function of the rad. cap....if u overfill reservoir it will only leak out of fill cap to the grd
Why is the overflow bottle boiling hot with water and yet the car is not overheating?
Because engine coolant gets hot. It works through heat exchange - coolant goes through the system, absorbs the heat from the engine, passes through the radiator, then rapidly exchanges the heat to the air which passes through the radiator fins.
