What does it mean when your radiator hose pops off?
The hose fits on it snugly and clamps down tight. I would pressure test the system to see when this hose pops off. If it pops off at a pressure below what the cap is rated, then it’s not clamping tight enough. If it pops off above what the cap is rated for, then the problem would be the cap.
Why does upper radiator hose keep building up pressure?
Q: Upper radiator hose keeps building up a lot of pressure and popping off. Car loses coolant and over heats. My upper radiator hose keeps building alit of pressure and popping off and car loses coolant and overheats. I changed radiator cap after reading that could be problem. My car has 191400 miles. Hello, thank you for writing in.
Why is the water coming from the top of the radiator?
Considering it is the top hose, the coolant is coming from the thermostat and flowing down through the radiator to be cooled. The water pump is what pushes it through the thermostat, and if you have excessive pressure, you will want to direct your attention there.
Is the radiator gasket leakproof or leakproof?
Many newer automatic transmissions have temperature-sensors in them that, on a stone-cold start, restrict normal shift to only the lower (or non-overdrive gears) until the engine coolant and transmission fluid reach a certain level which in many engines, is around… It should be leakproof with the supplied gasket used alone.

What does the top of the radiator cap do?
The cap acts as a pressure relief valve. Too much pressure can cause damage, while not enough pressure can cause the engine to overheat. The top portion of the radiator cap will list the pressure rating. Always use a cap of the correct pressure for your cooling system.
Can a low coolant light cause a radiator hose leak?
If your Low Coolant Light comes on, or you are having to constantly replenish the fluid, there could be a leak in the radiator hose. This type of leak should be visible as drips where the vehicle was parked.

Why does my radiator hose pop off when I turn it on?
Hello, thank you for writing in. The radiator hoses can pop off for several reasons. Typically it is because the hose or the plastic neck that connects it to the radiator/component has failed. You will want to inspect both sides of the problem hose, and determine if the clamp is doing its job.

What to do if your car’s radiator is overheating?
If the engine has overheated replace the thermostat. The hose should not feel uncomfortably hot, until the engine has warmed-up and the thermostat opens. If the hose does not get hot, it means the thermostat is not opening.
What causes the radiator hose to collapse on a car?
At 195°F, the thermostat should be fully open. If the thermostat fails in the closed position, the water pump will attempt to pull coolant from the radiator and that can cause the upper radiator hose to collapse. However, this stuck radiator condition will also cause the engine to overheat.
What does it mean when your radiator does not get hot?
The hose should not feel uncomfortably hot, until the engine has warmed-up and the thermostat opens. If the hose does not get hot, it means the thermostat is not opening.
