Inflated radiator hose
One of the many problems I need to fix on my car.
My car is leaking coolant from somewhere and burning it as I drive. The car is overheating a bit.
Would this inflate the radiator hoses while running hot? I already burped the system and these hoses are pretty new.

Re: Inflated radiator hose
You need to find where it is leaking from. somewhere is not going to help us diagnose your problem.

Re: Inflated radiator hose
Would a leak cause the radiator hoses to do that though?
I ordered a hose kit so im just going to replace all of them and be done with it. I just don't know if that will fix my radiator hose inflation problem.
