How to Deal with Car Radiator Leakage?
1 Answers
Methods to deal with car radiator leakage vary depending on the situation: 1. For minor leaks, you can place loose tobacco strands into the radiator, utilizing the water circulation pressure to temporarily block the leak in the cooling tubes with the tobacco strands; 2. If the rubber hose connection is leaking, use a screwdriver to secure the hose clamp around the rubber hose connection, wrap it twice, and tighten it with pliers. If the rubber hose is damaged, wrap the cracked area tightly with tape for temporary use; 3. When the radiator leak is a crack no more than 1mm or a hole no larger than 2mm, add a radiator stop-leak agent to the radiator and start the car. The stop-leak agent will circulate with the water to reach the rubber hoses and various gaskets, stopping the leak. Once the leak is sealed, there is no need to drain it, as it will not affect cooling or cause blockages.
