Heating AC and Engine Cooling

Heating, air conditioning (AC) and engine cooling require a radiator to transfer heat. Heating a cabin requires heat to be transferred from an engine block. Engine cooling blows the heat out of the engine. AC uses refrigerants to cool air.

you need a gauge to check the PSI while charging...the parts store has a new kit called "A/C recharging for DUMMIES" and comes with a gauge, hose, and freon and most importantly a book... a manual will help with diagnosis and repair, and a shop manual should be available at the local library in the reference section for FREE, make copies of the right pages, good luck...:)

How can you recharge a car's air conditioner?

Recharging any air conditioner unit is not a DIY job.

To be able to do it safely - without endangering your own life or anyone else's - you need a licence to do the work. To get a licence you need to be properly trained and then you must pass both a practical test and a theory exam.

This advice applies to any air conditioning unit, no matter if in a vehicle or in a building.

How do you bleed the air out of the cooling system on a 1998 Chevy Malibu with a V6 engine?

You Do Not Need To Bleed The Air Out Of The Cooling System. Do This. Let The Car Cool, Remove The Radiator Cap. Start The Car (with the heater on ) Add A Bit Of Water To The Radiator. Put The Cap Back On. Fill The Resivoir To The Proper Mark. Let The Car Run Till At Normal Tempature. Then Shut It Down. Let It Cool Check The Water Level It Should Be OK. If Not Add As Needed, Including The Resivoir. Check It A Couple Times During The Next Week Or So. There is a bleed screw sticking out of a tube that runs along the front of the motor. The screw sits in front of the number two piston (front right of the motor from the perspective of someone sitting in the car). Remove the bleed screw and fill the coolant tank. When coolant begins to come out of the bleed hole, replace the screw. My service manual says that the car doesn't need to be running, but I think it wouldn't hurt.

What would cause a 2002 s10 with a 2.2liter not to get up to operating temperature you have replaced the thermostat twice replaced the fan clutch and radiator cap?

Start engine. Run it for 10-15 minutes. Open the hood while at idle. Place your hand on the top of your engine. It should feel hot...

With engine still running, remove the radiator cap. Please keep in mind if hot, water will spray.

With radiator cap removed, watch the water inside. It should be flowingfor a moment, and then no flow for a moment, the flow a moment, so on, so on...

If the above, hot, water flows then stops, then flows again, is happening, then get your temp gauge fixed, if above is not happening, then you either put the thermostat in upside down or you forgot to put it in...

If temperature gauge not working can it be the reason for the radiator fan not run?

Ummmm, Radiator fans run off a temperature switch. Sometimes they put the fan switch and sender for the gauge together so I suppose it could be related. Have you checked to see if the wires are unplugged? Just a thought.
