Would a blocked thermostat force water out radiator?

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.


Why is your radiator leaking water?

A radiator can leak water due to a cracked or corroded radiator, loose connections, a faulty radiator cap, or overheating causing pressure buildup. It is important to identify the cause of the leak and address it promptly to avoid damaging the engine or causing overheating.


Which is the supply line on a radiator?

The lower radiator hose supplies the water pump. The upper radiator hose supplies the radiator.


Why doesn't the radiator pull the water back from the reservoir even if the radiator cap is new?

If the radiator is not pulling water from the reservoir even with a new cap, there may be an issue with the radiator itself such as a clog, a faulty radiator inlet/outlet, or a malfunctioning water pump. It is recommended to have the radiator system inspected by a professional to diagnose and resolve the problem.


Why is Water Boiling in radiator?

Water may boil in a radiator due to high engine temperatures, low coolant levels, a faulty thermostat, or a malfunctioning radiator cap. When the cooling system is unable to regulate the engine temperature effectively, the water in the radiator can reach its boiling point and create steam. It is important to address this issue promptly to prevent engine damage.

2004 trailblazer How much coolant will come out of water pump if you do not drain it?

I assume you want to change out the water pump and would like to know if you can do it without draining the radiator. You will lose approximately all the coolant in the radiator reservoir when you remove the radiator hose from the water pump. If the coolant is in good, clean condition, it might be wise to drain the radiator into a container and re-use the coolant.

Why is it too hot in car radiator?

The most common reason for overheating of a car radiator is that there is not enough water in the radiator. Radiators can lose water in a variety of ways, and often need to be refilled. The other possibility is that the water is not being circulated properly. I should add that cars do heat up quite a bit in the sunlight on a hot day, which adds significantly to the chances of overheating the radiator.
