If you encounter a vehicle that experiences coolant coming out of the coolant reservoir tank, it may be caused by the radiator cap pressure valve being stuck open by debris sucked up through the reservoir tank hose. As the cooling system cools down, it sucks coolant back into the radiator.

Engine coolant is flammable at certain temperatures. If coolant is spilled during the service procedure, all residual coolant must be removed from all surfaces before releasing the vehicle back to the customer. Make sure that the engine has cooled down to outside temperature before starting the repair to avoid being burned by hot coolant.

Coolant suppliers who say this is so much nonsense have developed their own proprietary OAT-based products, which they say can be safely used in all makes and all models. The Better Business Bureau challenged one coolant supplier on this claim, insisting there can be no such thing because the vehicle manufacturers all have different and sometimes conflicting coolant specifications.

When the A/C stops blowing cold air, most people can only tolerate the loss of cooling as long as the thermometer remains below 80 to 85 degrees and the humidity isn't too bad. Beyond that, a trip in heavy stop-and-go traffic can be a near-death experience. As temperature and humidity go up, so does the level of discomfort. Eventually, the desire to remain perspiration-free will overcome a person's desire to postpone repairs, and you'll soon see their vehicle for service.
