What is The Importance of a Coolant Reservoir in Your Car?
The coolant reservoir is a plastic container installed in the engine compartment. A coolant reservoir is required because every vehicle’s engine expels and absorbs coolant as it cools its heated body. This means that the cooling system requires extra coolant while the engine is cold. The cooling system pressure increases as the engine warms up, requiring less coolant. In other words, a coolant reservoir temporarily stores coolant liquid when it expands due to engine heat. So, when the engine cools, the coolant heats up and leaks out of the plastic reservoir tank into the radiator.
Where Is the Coolant Reservoir Located?
Coolant reservoirs are made of rigid plastic and are generally found on the upper right side of the engine compartment. Because coolant is used to cool the engine, a working reservoir is essential. Symptoms of a coolant reservoir issue include:
Symptoms of a Damaged Coolant Reservoir
Coolant reservoirs are prone to damage due to their material, location, and design. They eventually break and leak, causing the engine to overheat and require repair. Also, you must know how to detect coolant by colour before replacing the reservoir. But, before you spend money and time on a replacement, learn how to identify troubling symptoms.
Leak Under Car
After filling the coolant reservoir, it may leak if it’s damaged. Call a mechanic if you see a puddle of coloured water beneath your car. It’s easy to spot when there’s a pool of coloured water beneath your car’s passenger seat. The colour is not specified because different colours of car coolant serve different purposes. If the coolant reservoir is empty after filling the tank, there may be a leak. The leak is caused by a loose coolant line, a damaged reservoir lid, or a reservoir crack. Aside from the damaged tank, shattered cylinder heads could cause the coolant leak. Check for leaks in the tank and the lines leading to the coolant reservoir. If it’s too technical, get professional help.
Overfilled Coolant Reservoir
Like an empty reservoir, an overfilled coolant tank is hazardous. Is it wrong to overfill the coolant reservoir? While an empty coolant reservoir is a warning, so is an overfilled tank. For those who don’t know, every coolant reservoir has two marks: one for the hot engine level and the other for the cold engine level. A swollen coolant reservoir tank will overflow into the overflow hose. While not fatal to the vehicle, this issue is lethal to the environment.
Internal Damage
Blow the reservoir top. Because when coolant overflows, pressure builds inside the cooling system. The heated coolant cannot expand because the reservoir is already full, the heated coolant cannot expand, placing pressure on the tank. The top eventually pops, forcing the hot coolant to erupt like lava.
The coolant might potentially damage the electrical system by soaking the interior wiring. This produces an electrical failure, devastating for the vehicle and costly for you. This might cause issues with your vehicle, such as starting, headlights, brake lights, battery, radio, etc.
White Smoke Out of Exhaust
A broken coolant reservoir causes excessive white smoke from the exhaust. A leaking tank could contaminate the oil, but this is unlikely. The exposed wires usually are insulated, so tremendous overflow is required.
Can Oil Get into The Coolant Reservoir?
The motor oil in the coolant reservoir is a dangerous sign for essential components. By keeping the engine fluid away from the combustibles, the head, However, a damaged head gasket allows oil into the coolant. Because repairing a head gasket requires removing the engine, other oil sources can also get into the coolant reservoir, causing havoc.
The problem might be complicated and costly cylinder head or engine block cracks. Most car cooling systems cool oil. Heat exchangers that fail can leak oil into the coolant reservoir. Although cheaper, leaking oil can harm your car’s engine. Without adequate maintenance, the coolant reservoir can cause considerable damage to the cooling system. By design, the coolant tank is easily damaged. To replace the coolant reservoir, you must first purchase the required car parts and tools.
