Why is my radiator fluid disappearing?
Disappearing engine coolant could be the result of a slightly cracked hose, a tiny hole in your radiator, or a water pump issue. It’s also possible for a coolant leak to develop inside your vehicle or to simply vaporize into mist via your defroster. Check the underside of your radiator for dampness as well.
Why does radiator coolant decrease?
Yes, due to the extreme engine temperature, the water element within the Coolant tends to evaporate, resulting in a coolant level drop. Also, due to the availability of an overflow reservoir, which makes one end of the Coolant open, tends to spill out extra Coolant or jumping Coolant out of the system.

With the radiator cap in place, start the car to allow the stop leak to circulate through the cooling system. If using a temporary stop leak fix, run the engine for 10 to 15 minutes to allow it to reach full operating temperature. If using a commercial product, follow the manufacturer’s instructions for proper run time.
