As the engine coolant heats up, the coolant expands, so the coolant needs a reservoir or expansion tank to flow in and out of as needed.
You can operate a car without an expansion tank but it will most likely drip engine coolant onto the road when the motor heats up.
Yes it could
the operation of a expansion tank?
it could be that it's a little over full
No, an expansion tank is not required.
i take it you are talking bout expansion tank on a/c this is evaporation and is common on all vehicles if you are talking bout expansion tank on radiator, you have either got to much coolant in radiator,(check level when cold) or you have an air lock in the cooling system and need the system bled to remove air
Have you checked the water level in the coolant expansion tank, if low this will not heat up the car. If level ok maybe thermostat is stuck Have you checked the water level in the coolant expansion tank, if low this will not heat up the car. If level ok maybe thermostat is stuck
motor conected to fuel tank
Allows for expansion and contraction of various systems
It is just a expansion tank. Henry
Is the expansion tank in your system leaking and causing problems?
The boiler expansion tank should not be full of water. It should have a mix of water and air to allow for expansion and contraction of the water in the system. If the tank is full of water, it may indicate a problem with the tank or the system.
