Probably the thermostat stuck shut.
Sad volcano :(
No. Like all the volcanoes in Hawaii it is a shield volcano.
Oh, dude, Shishaldin Volcano is a volcano, not a serial killer. It hasn't killed anyone recently that I know of. Like, sure, it can be dangerous with eruptions and stuff, but it's not out there hunting people down. So, like, zero people killed by Shishaldin Volcano.
The light you are describing is the "Low Coolant Level" warning light. It indicates that the coolant level in your car's radiator is low and needs to be topped up. This is important for maintaining proper engine temperature and preventing overheating.
its rough i can tell you that!
It means your engine is overheating. You should pull over and stop the car immediately if that light comes on. Overheating can ruin an engine quickly.
If there is no temperature gauge on a motorcycle, the way to tell if the motorcycle is overheating is by smell or feel. If the bike smells like radiator hot water, it might be overheating. If the legs of the operator start to become so warm that it is uncomfortable to ride, it might be overheating.
you mean like overheating? could be a number of problems, radiator leak, radiator broke, radiator fan, leaky hose, broken water pump, broken head or head gasket, or the car running to lean.
it sounds like your water pump may not be working, to find out if it is, start your car, remove the radiator cap and look into the radiator. you should be able to see the fluid moving in the radiator. it sounds like your water pump may not be working, to find out if it is, start your car, remove the radiator cap and look into the radiator. you should be able to see the fluid moving in the radiator.if it is not m0oving your pump is bad
sounds like you have a cracked head or cracked block.however, i would check to make sure it is not transmission oil and thereby ruling out a radiator problem
No, a blocked thermostat would not force water out of the radiator. A blocked thermostat would prevent the proper flow of coolant through the engine, leading to overheating and potential damage to the engine. Water may overflow from the radiator due to other issues like a malfunctioning radiator cap or pressure buildup.
The top radiator hose is above the thermostat. If the top radiator hose is hot, the thermostat is opening. The thermostat is not the problem. Perhaps the radiator is clogged up or the water pump is bad. Look elsewhere.
You should replace the radiator cap if it is leaking coolant, not sealing properly, or showing signs of damage. A faulty radiator cap can lead to issues like overheating, coolant loss, or air entering the cooling system, which can cause damage to your engine. Regularly inspecting and replacing the radiator cap can help prevent these problems and maintain the efficiency of your cooling system.
if it's like my V8 Porsche 914, i had air pockets in the cooling system at the water pump. when air is at the water pump there is nothing to push water. Therefore overheating. Other things to check is water pump and radiator.
it sounds like you need to burp the air out of the motor. if at all possible park the car so the front end is higher than the rear end- like uphill parking. fill the radiator with coolant and run the car continuously filling the radiator as coolant is being circulated. have the heat on high inside the car. when the air blows warm and the radiator coolant level is being maintained. put the radiator cap on and fill the resevoir. never remove a radiator cap from ahot car as severe burns can occur
it could be your thermostat on the radiator. if it is then you could be causing some severe damage to the engine and radiator. i recommend that you take it in to be checked out. a simple problem like that can lead to something far more damaging and expensive in the long run if let go.
When the cooling system is overheated, the coolant is at pressure. Removing the radiator cap will release the pressure, and allow the coolant to boil, probably splashing you with boiling-hot radiator fluid. Your arms and hands will certainly be burned, and there's a good chance that the boiling coolant will splash your face. You wouldn't like it if that happens.
