My radiator keeps spitting the coolant back into the reservoir tank...then it shoots out all the coolant...what should i do?

 

are you over heating?

 

yea the temp goes up...

 

the main hose tightens like its sucking air and then it all pressured up

 

how many miles on the car?

 

15000...it starts heating up when i turn on the heater and the air doesnt get hot....i think the thermostat might be the problem but i dont kno....

 

check thermostat or water pump ....

 

Re-fill the coolant system and bleed the system correctly. Completely cold engine with the heater on and blowing (keys turned but not the engine). Open the bleed screw on the intake manifold (12mm) and the little rubber plug that's on the heater line on the firewall right above the engine. Begin filling the system from the radiator. Once you have coolant pouring out of the bleed screw, close it and fill up the radiator to the top and put the cap back on.

Start the engine and let it run for about 20 seconds. Shut it off and open the cap and see if it needs to be filled some more. Add enough fluid to the reservoir to be at the min line.

You probably had a bunch of air in the system. If it just started to do this out of no where, it's probably something in your system that's failed - cap, thermos, water pump.
