I've had this before and it turned out to be the oil cooler had a very small hole in it, and needed to be replaced. Roughly $1200 about two years ago. In my case, on top of the fluid in the reservoir having a chocolate color to it, it had started to leak out of the cap of the radiator reservoir. This is due to the added pressure of the oil system. If you don't see this at all, then it could be a blown head gasket as well as a few other things. I have a 2000 Saab, and have been told this is a common problem though, so the oil cooler is my best guess. Kind of a complicated repair, it is internal to the engine (on my model)
my niece's was overheating I replaced the radiator cap and it hasn't happened since FYI
Have you replaced the heating core yet?
no it doesnt........the overflow container is just there to catch the extra coolant.......it has nothing to do with the heating system
If your radiator isnt leaking and car is having a over heating problem and coolant spewing out. Chances are your thermostat needs replaced. possible the radiator needs to be flushed. But more likley its thermostat
Have flushed complete cooling system replaced water pump radiator thermostat clutch fan added 2gal straight anti freeze then filled to capacity with water and truck is still over heating. What else could possibly be wrong
Depends. A radiator in a car looks different from a heating radiator in a building. Which one?
I’m not sure, but it stands to reason if they take a 3 core off they should put a 3 core back on…
A radiator in a heating system uses conduction to transfer heat from hot water or steam to the surrounding air. The hot water or steam flows through the radiator, heating up the metal fins, which then warms the air in the room through conduction.
I was having the same problem with my car. When you take the thermostat out it will automatically read cool. But I later found out that I had a leak in my radiator and had to replace it. Turned out that my heads are warped and was leaking oil into my water and into the radiator itself. Once i replaced the radiator its been fine.
Sure, here's a sentence for you: The heating system's radiator conduction efficiently transferred heat throughout the room, keeping it nice and toasty during the cold winter months.
The best place to install a radiator for optimal heating efficiency is under a window. This placement allows the radiator to counteract the cold air that comes in through the window, resulting in more efficient heating.
Your radiator may not be heating up properly due to issues such as air trapped in the system, a malfunctioning thermostat, low water levels, or a faulty water pump. It is important to have a professional inspect and diagnose the problem to ensure proper heating in your radiator.
