Radiator Cap Video
While the radiator cap may seem like a minor part, it helps keep your engine cool by sealing and pressurizing the coolant inside. The radiator cap designed to hold the coolant in the radiator under a predetermined amount of pressure. Once the pressure reaches maximum, the cap opens its release valve and allows heat to escape. To maintain your cooling system, it is important that even the smallest components are working properly.
If your car, truck, or SUV is overheating, do not open the radiator cap. Pressurized coolant can spray out, causing serious burns. Whether the issue is your radiator cap, your radiator, or another cooling system problem, call GNB Auto Repair Inc at 718-478-7128 to diagnose cooling issues.
