Why would the radiator hoses be very firm when there is no thermstat?
Without a thermostat, the coolant continuously circulates through the radiator hoses, causing them to heat up and expand. This can make the hoses feel very firm due to the increased pressure from the heated coolant. The thermostat helps regulate the flow of coolant to maintain a consistent temperature in the engine.
Why is top radiator hose cold and bottom radiator hose cold?
If both the top and bottom radiator hoses are cold, it is likely that the thermostat is stuck closed, preventing coolant from flowing through the radiator. This can result in poor engine cooling. Additionally, air trapped in the cooling system can also cause both hoses to remain cold. Purging the air and checking the thermostat would be recommended in this situation.
Why would radiator hose burst?
How old is the hose? There was probably a weak spot in the hose. It could have been rubbing against a fan belt or a part of the car that just rubbed it till it broke. Your Radiator cap could be faulty therefore the pressure in the radiator becomes so great that something has to give and the hose would be a likely part to burst.
Why does a bottle collapse when it has heated air?
When air inside a bottle is heated, it expands and increases pressure. If the bottle cannot withstand this increased pressure, it will collapse as the hot air cools down and contracts, creating a vacuum. The difference in pressure between the inside and outside of the bottle causes it to collapse.
What is the main force that causes a star to undergo gravitational collapse and transform into a black hole?
The main force that causes a star to undergo gravitational collapse and transform into a black hole is the inward pull of gravity, which becomes stronger as the star's core runs out of fuel and can no longer support itself against its own gravity. This collapse results in a dense, compact object with a gravitational pull so strong that not even light can escape, creating a black hole.
Why is the Upper and lower radiator hoses collapse on a 2003 Chevy Impala?
check radiator cap for wear. defective cap can cause radiotor hoses to collapse.
How do you fix hoses that collapse on a 1992 F 150 truck?
Replace with reinforced hoses Check radiator cap for proper pressure
What are Causes of leaking radiator fluid?
loose/cracked radiatior hoses
What causes the radiator hoses to flatten out?
Radiator hoses are made of rubber and over time these units fail due to the environment. When they fail the rubber can get dry rotted which will cause the lines to flatten and crack.
Monte Carlo overheating causes?
Plugged radiator, Bad thermostat, water pump not working, radiator hoses collapsing and dont forget no oil
What are different causes of car overheating?
Bad radiator fan motor; bad radiator fan relay; clogged radiator; thermostat stuck closed; loose belt; bad water pump; hoses leaking;
What causes a car to run hot and leak antifreeze?
a hose or radiator may be broken. check your hoses and radiator. where is leak coming from?? front, right?? find general area and continue from there
How many radiator hoses does a 1999 ford explorer have?
2 radiator hoses / the top radiator hose comes from the engine thermostat / and the bottom radiator hose returns to the engine water pump
Why are all radiator hoses hot except the lower hose?
Lower radiator hoses in water cooled engines are return lines. The upper radiator hoses are feed lines of hot engine water to the radiator. The reason that lower hoses are cooler is that the radiator has allowed much of the water's heat to dissipate into the air. Thus, a lower radiator hose contains cooler water than other radiator and heater hose lines.
What causes radiator hose with thermostat to collapses a1996 Honda accord with 2.2 liter engine.?
radiator hose needs replacing. use and heat will cause hose to collapse when worn out
What would cause Both radiator hoses to collapsed?
Radiator cap
What causes a 94 Cadillac STS to overheat and coolant to be low?
Check the upper and lower radiator hoses at the engine. They have a tendency to expand and split.
