[quote="riceclout" post=170088]Hello everyone, i have an 04 acura tl, the plastic cap on my coolant reservoir cracked a week ago so i sealed it off with some waterproof tape thinking it wasn't a big deal. i've left out the dip tube inside reservoir because i was in process of ordering a new set, so air must've went into my rad after i turned my car off as pressure decreases.
While the engine is off, your coolant reservoir should be about 30% full. The most common reason for a vehicle to overheat is a leak in the coolant reservoir or one of the attached hoses. A leak means that the stored liquid will slowly drip out and eventually, there will be insufficient coolant running through the system.
While you're driving, coolant gets pumped through the radiator and it and the fans do their job. When you turn the engine off, there's still lots of residual heat left in the engine. It heats the coolant in the block causing it to expand and push past the pressure cap into the overflow reservoir. That's the way it's supposed to work.
Checking engine coolant, indicate the position of the coolant reservoir and tell your driving tester you would check between the minimum and maximum levels to ensure the engine has enough coolant. Warning: never remove coolant cap just after driving as high pressure can cause scalding. Wait until engine has cooled down before adding coolant.

Location: Bismarck, North Dakota. Some of the coolant is supposed to push out of the hot engine into the overflow jug when the engine is shut down. That is the purpose of the jug. As the engine cools, it should pull coolant back in. If it is getting air back in instead of coolant, you have a leak in the overflow hose, the jug, or the radiator cap.

Interstitial, or connate, water is the initial water saturation in the reservoir at discovery. In Lesson 3, we saw that as pressure is reduced the compressibility of the rock and fluids ( Equation 3.17, Equation 3.26, Equation 3.30, and Equation 3.43a ) causes the volumes of the oil and water to expand and the pore-volume to shrink ...
Answer (1 of 4): Have you refilled the reservoir? If you have refilled the reservoir, and it still shows low levels, then the engine is either leaking it or consuming it. The answer you don't want to hear is that the cylinder head is cracked, and the cooling water is going into the combustion cha...
Reservoirs are used for irrigation, hydroelectric power generation, domestic purposes, flood control, and recreation. The world's largest reservoir is Lake Volta in Ghana, retaining 148 km 3 of water. The world's largest dam is the 2335 m long at crest and 181 m high from crest to base Three Gorges Dam in China.
1987 - 1996 F150 - Water Boiling Out of Reservoir - 1987 F-150 2wd Automatic 5.0L Mileage 83,000 (Unknown most likely many more) Hello I have an 87 F150 work truck that I use to go to home depot. It runs and drives really great considering the age and so forth, but it has one problem lately that I am not sure what is...
The reservoir tank has been looking dirty for a while but I did not make too much of it since I had my water pump replaced at 100k so the coolant was replaced then. The car has 114k on it and I am assuming I have been driving with oil in there for a while. I checked the oil and it looks clean. The car is not overheating and runs really smooth.
The problem with mixing various engine antifreeze's is the changing formulations which shouldn't be an issue if you refill the empty tank with the recommended stuff. ...

Asked by Solo1234 Dec 14, 2017 at 02:38 PM about the 1987 Chevrolet Caprice Classic Brougham Sedan RWD Question type: Maintenance & Repair I have a 1987 Caprice Classic every time I fill up my coolant reservoir the next day the coolant is gone, I lifted the car found no leaks even put coolant in radiator cap & it still goes missing WHAT CAN IT BE !
The coolant reservoir in your car is a plastic reservoir that is located in your engine bay. It's responsible for storing all the coolant that your car's cooling system needs to cool your engine off when your car is turned on. It's important for your car to have a fully-functioning coolant reservoir in it because your engine is going to ...
The network for the engine oil directs the oil to various engine parts where it is required, whereas the same is achieved for coolant or water inside the cooling system of the engine. You can take a look at your engine and you might see the thin line where the head gasket is. You will find it near where you insert the spark plugs.
After running the engine until it was hot, I opened the hood and was surprised to see the level did not raise much in the overflow reservoir. Then I realized the level had fallen below the end of the tube connecting the reservoir and the radiator. Anyway, I topped it off to HOT FULL mark with distilled water (got a gallon for $1.30 from CVS).
What could be the cause of oil in the radiator overflow reservoir? I just bought a 2002 Toyota Echo and after driving it about 350 miles noticed the coolant low temp. light was staying on …
Many of the streams entering the reservoir are stocked annually with rainbow, brown and brook trout so some of them may make their way into the reservoir. Fish Survey Report (2013) A fisheries survey of the Salmon River Reservoir in Oswego County was conducted in June 2013 to determine the level of natural reproduction resulting from five years ...
First, I noticed that after driving my 05 c240 about 100 miles away, the coolant level sensor alerted me of low coolant level which I topped up. It happened also after driving the vehicle occasionally as well. Then I tried to check why coolant level is reducing and observed coolant spillage coolant expansiion tank hose and the engine auxiliary ...
In fact when the car`s engine is cold the reservoir should always be lower than the full mark as it would need space for expansion when the engine is running. Also you do not need to open the radiator cap to check the coolant level; you only need to look at the level in the overflow reservoir & looking at the picture the level is quite alright.
The engine is the heart of your car. It is a complex machine built to convert heat from burning gas into the force that turns the road wheels. The chain of reactions which achieve that objective is set in motion by a spark, which ignites a mixture of petrol vapour and compressed air inside a momentarily sealed cylinder and causes it to burn rapidly.
The water pump failed a couple months ago and I replaced it, but the reservoir depletion issue persists. I checked the system with a pressure tester and it held 15 psi rock solid with no leakdown. With the engine running, however, the system does not build much pressure at all: 5 psi at most. When revved it drops momentarily.
If there was no cold reservoir towards which it could move there would be no heat flow and the engine would not work. Because the cold reservoir is …
Gasoline and diesel engines, jet engines, and steam turbines are all heat engines that do work by using part of the heat transfer from some source. Heat transfer from the hot object (or hot reservoir) is denoted as Q h, while heat transfer into the cold object (or cold reservoir) is Q c …
Another symptom of a potential problem with the coolant reservoir is coolant leaks. If the coolant reservoir cracks or breaks due to old age or overheating it will leak. Small leaks may produce steam and drips, while larger leaks will produce streams and puddles, as well as an obvious coolant odor. 3. Engine overheating.

Hence if you Take the water temp of a car running correctly you may well find the Engine/Water temp is up around the 105 Mark.....Given the Pressure build up in an "Average" engine the water would not boil until it reaches (ABOUT) 120 Degrees C ... on with how it works and it is very likely that the waterpump seals and ...
The Internet is full of bad advice. I am assuming that you would add the coolant to the full mark when the engine is relatively cool (at least a few hours after you stopped driving). If you are using a Toyota Pink Coolant (or Toyota compatible coolant specifically made for Asian cars) that is pre-mixed 50-50 with water, just add that.
