I have a 94 acura integra, the problem with it is that it isnt sucking coolant from the radiator resorvior back into the radiator. whats seems to be the problem? i'm not loosing coolant or anything. the resorvior is not over filling with coolant or anything like that. help.

 

anyone?

 

What's the problem? if you're not loosing coolant, you shouldn't need to draw additional coolant from the reservoir.

The only obvious thing I can think of would be to see if something is blocking fluid from moving through the hose.

 

Think of how it works and fix what needs to be fix. If the radiator is full then it does not need anymore from the reservoir.

What happens is when the radiator is hot the fluid expand and is pushed out into the reservoir. When it cools down again it suck what it needs back.

 

I feel like the radiatator isnt sucking coolant from the resorvior when it can or when it needs to. the first month of owning it, one of the coolant lines came loose and i had to replace it, and top off the coolant. now after a few weeks of driving i open up the cap and it needed a little bit of coolant to top it off. i look at the resorvior and its still full of coolant as before. I noticed that bubbles or air seems to be coming out of the other end of the line going into the resorvior causing bubble.

 

You need to bleed the air bubbles out of the coolant. Just open the cap and let the car run for about 15 minutes or until the fan kicks on. If you are still getting bubbles check all hoses and see if you have water in your oil. Indicator of a blown head gasket.
