What else can I help you with?
What could cause coolant to overflow even though engine temperature is normal on a cool day and no coolant was added?
The engine needs to be flushed.the coolant ports have a build up of gunk causing the engine to run hotter. The heated water expands to much causing it to over flow from the reserve tank.
What causes steam to come from the hood of a car?
That'll be your coolant, and there could be a number of things causing it... a blown head gasket will do it... a coolant leak where the coolant leaks onto a hot engine block will do it... a faulty radiator cap which opens too easily can cause this.... excess coolant causing the system to overpressurize and have to relive frequently will, as well.
What could be causing water to come in under the nearside rear passenger footwell?
If it is water, it could be a plugged up AC condensation drain or if it is engine coolant, it could be a leaky heater core.
Why is the engine overheating when engine coolant was just put in?
The coolant temp. sensor could be bad....or the thermostat could be stuck shut.....there are a few things it could be actually
Can you add turbo to any engine?
You can add turbo to any engine if you are willing to upgrade the engine properly. Turbo kits are generally rather expensive. Although they typically include everything needed to install the turbo itself, it isn't an easy task. Welding could be required. Drilling into the oil pan could be required. It is recommended to have a turbo kit installed by a professional.
How many Hp does a turbo engine have in total?
A turbo usually adds around 10-100 hp, lets say 45. A turbo could be fitted to any car engine, and they already have an amount of hp so it could be anything. There is no proper answer.
What could be causing car fumes to leak into the car from the engine and cause me to get a headache?
maybe catalytic coverter clogged, leaking coolant hoses to/from heater core, hopefully this helps.
How do you get the air out of the engine after changing the thermostat on a Saturn sl2?
Don't worry about it. If the engine has not been damaged, all you need to do is keep the coolant reservoir full, and run the engine enough to get it hot at which point it will push out a lot of the air. After it cools again, it will pull in the coolant. Keep the coolant level up by checking it every time you get ready to go somewhere. You'll notice when the coolant level no longer drops. Note that if the engine has overheated, it could have been damaged. If that happened, there could be a failed head gasket or cracked head. When either of those happen, combustion gas is forced into the coolant space, forcing coolant out of the engine and causing the engine to overheat rapidly. Unfortunately, if that has happened, the only option is to replace the faulty parts and re-surface the head.
What could be causing the heat to blow cold and then hot I have a 97 Chevy Lumina?
Could be low on coolant.
Could the temp coolant sensor cause the truck to run cold?
The coolant sensor moniters the coolant temperature. A faulty thermostat could cause the engine to run cool.
Could the bottle for the coolant cause over heating if it has a split in it?
If the coolant reservoir can not maintain the proper level of coolant, it is possible the engine could over heat when the level drops.
What is the cause of a coolant leak on top of a 1997 Taurus 3.0 engine?
If you have coolant on the top of the engine it could be a leaky thermostat housing or a leaking intake gasket.
