higherlux · 11-01-2009, 04:51 PM

what dose it mean when your radiator hose dose this?
bad antifreeze?
needs new hoses?
what?
its the only one that dose it

chris4x4 · 11-01-2009, 04:54 PM

May just need to be pulled off, cleaned, and attached with a better clamp. OR...It could have a small crack in the hose.

higherlux · 11-01-2009, 04:59 PM

also the radiator cap has some gunk around where the spring and seal are

Clean it off.

Blumpkinson · 11-01-2009, 05:02 PM

The lower hose in my old talon did that. I read online that the cap usually causes this to happen. So i got a new one from the junkyard and changed the fluid and it never did it again.

Probably air and/or leaks. Replace hose, flush radiator.

PS. These boobies are better --> ( o Y o )

tigerfan00 · 11-01-2009, 05:17 PM

i think that just means your truck is sucking hardcore

jeremiekc · 11-01-2009, 05:19 PM

They are pretty inexpensive compared to a blown engine, I would replace the hose and the cap just to be on the safe side.

will do

Janster · 11-02-2009, 04:29 AM

Could it be a thermostat problem?

PrezidentRedz · 11-02-2009, 10:48 AM

thats the output hose. the water is coming from that side of the motor. that side should have pressure. I would flush the system and see what happens.

higherlux · 11-02-2009, 02:51 PM

alright heres what im gonna do
1 buy a new radiator cap
2 buy (?) gallons of antifreeze
and possibly a new hose
anything else?

ubermx5 · 11-02-2009, 03:40 PM

Get Distilled water. or buy water made for this.

Do not use tap water or filtered water.
it has stuff in it that will rust your block out.

I would asl get water wetter to add as well, but it is over kill.

cmack48 · 11-02-2009, 03:51 PM
