my car a 97 conformity, had the check engine street lamp on, so i saw my radiator was doomed to failure, i replaced it and the check engine light turned bad, but there is still vapor coming out of my investigational radiator.
i think i did everything correctly but obyously i didnt.
-i flushed the out-of-date radiator's coolant/antifreeze
-i removed all the electrical wirering and the 2 hoses
-i took out the behind the times radiator and reconnected the new one indistinguishable way beside new coolant/antifreeze.
and it still have vapor coming out of my radiator and some coolant out of my radiator cap and yes my sou`wester is put on right i actually bought a contemporary one and put it same thing happen.
my temperature guage arrow merely goes up 30% not even partially way so i rly dont know what is wrong. a lil back please :(
The thermostat is shot. Just follow the return hose to the engine block. The thermostat Is behind that housing.
If pressure is coming out of the radiator and it is not overheating later you may have a doomed to failure head gasket.
More: I thought roughly a bad thermostat but if that be the case afterwards the temp gage would indicate overheating.
Answers: If it's steaming, then there's a seep somewhere - you should never see steam from the radiator under typical circumstances. Maybe one of the hoses has a small split. or possibly your boss gasket is bad, and you're pushing sopme of your compression into the cooling system - the extra pressure could really cause a slick somewhere. And if the engine is running too cold, it's probably caused by a thermostat that have jammed in the "open" position. But don't trust your rate - get a mechanic to check the actual warmth. My wife's car solely goes up almost 1/3 of the way, but the actual temp of the coolant is considered regular. Gauges are only fitting for a rough estimate - don't use them for accurate measurement.
Good luck!
