What else can I help you with?
Would overflow of antifreeze and engine coolant make engine smoke and smell like burning?
Yes, an overflow of antifreeze or engine coolant can cause smoke and a burning smell if it spills onto hot engine components. When coolant leaks onto the engine, it can vaporize and produce smoke. Additionally, the coolant can burn, creating a sweet, acrid odor. It's important to address any coolant overflow promptly to prevent engine damage and ensure safe operation.
What happens when you put to much antifreeze in the over flow bottle of a 2003 Dodge Dakota pickup truck.?
It will get pushed out onto the ground as the engine warms up.
Can your car smoke if you put to much antifreeze in it?
If you overfill the reservoir and radiator with antifreeze, it will generally expand as it gets hot and spill out of the reservoir. When it does that, it will usually spill onto the hot engine and create "smoke".
Why would Anti-freeze be going over into overflow but not leaking on ground?
This is standard on most all vehicles. When the antifreeze warms up it expands. Thus the reason for the overflow. Cars have had them forever, if it spills out onto the ground you have either overfilled it or you may have major engine problems, such as a blown head gasket or various other possilbe problesm
Smell of antifreeze but radiator is full?
The smell of antifreeze is very strong and distinct, it does not take much of a leak to smell it. The radiator could still be full and have a small leak. I would check for antifreeze dripping onto the exhaust or on the engine block because when it is hot the smell is much more noticeable from the fumes.
Why would your car smell like antifreeze when you get out?
if you can smell antifreeze, you have an antifreeze leak somewhere. you need to clean engine then look for coolant . it will generally pool on ground under vehicle unless it is leaking onto engine and burning off. note that the coolant will run so you may have to trace back to the actual leak. check all coolant fittings, such as hoses and check area round water pump.
What to do if substance spills onto skin?
Wash the acid off as soon as possible.
How do you remove air from coolant in a 93 dodge stealth?
The air in the antifreeze on a 1993 Dodge Stealth will bleed out if you leave the coolant cap (the cap that screws onto the radiator hose connecting tube, NOT the antifreeze overflow plastic cap) off while the engine warms up. After the thermostat opens when the engine is warm, the antifreeze will start to flow from the engine, through the upper radiator hose, and into the top of the radiator. When you do not see bubbles at the filler neck where you removed the cap, the air should be expelled and you can put the cap back on.
If someone poured oil on your property is that vandalism?
If someone spills oil onto your lawn that is vandalism.
Losing antifreeze but no leaks under pressure have to add antifreeze to resivoir every three weeks because its empty. Had intake manifold gasket fixed last year.?
Could be a leaking head gasket - try running engine to normal operating temperature remove oil dipstick and let a drop fall onto hot part of engine - oil will smoke coolant will sizzle
How do you tell if the water pump has gone out in a 2000 ford F150?
Antifreeze or water ( whatever you are using in the engine for cooling), will be leaking out and onto the engine and ground if the small hole in the front isn't plugged with oil or dirt. Otherwise it may go into the engine oil. If the impellar inside has stopped turning, you will notice that the engine will start overheating.
When engine shuts off the antifreeze flows out the drain tube onto the ground causing low fluids.does not seem to run hot until fluids are low due to venting?
sounds like you have a bad cap.
