Keeping Cool: Properly Servicing a Critically Damaged Car Radiator

Cars shouldn’t be driven around if their radiators are either broken down or leaking too much coolant fluid. Not all motorists will be as fortunate as the drivers featured in the aforementioned article, and some will find themselves unable to use their automobiles due to a badly damaged radiator. In the event that a vehicle’s cooling system finally gives way, a motorist should be prepared to purchase a replacement radiator.

A broken or leaking radiator will be unable to stabilize a car’s inner temperatures. High heat caused by combustion and friction within engines can put thermal strain upon the mechanisms, potentially warping and destroying the delicate parts. Cars devastated this way are sidelined permanently, and will cost hundreds or even thousands of dollars to replace.
