    all are correct!
    tip.
    kung made of hard plastic ang top and bottom ng radiator mo, pa tanso mo na rin kung papa overhaul mo tutal naka kalas na eh
    tip.
    always bring water, kahit lagay mo sa 2 liter coke container
    tip.
    isip pa ako.. later

    Pressurized ang cooling system ng engine.
    10 mins is more than enough to get the engine to it's normal operating temp.
    If you lose water over a short period of time, you may have leaks but it may also mean that you have air pockets lang in your cooling system.
    You shouldnt replenish your radiator thru the cap only thru the overflow tank unless you've just changed coolant/water.
    The system will draw in the water from the overflow tank when the engien cools down if everything is working as it should.

    Cool gal,

    Based dun sa 1st message mo, naturally mababawasan talaga tubig ng radiator kasi pinasirit mo eh. jok lang

    but seriously the temperature between C and H is normal considering you have already started it 10 mins already. matagal na yon sakin 5 mins. lang nasa gitna na.

    Question, gaano kabilis maubos yung tubig sa radiator mo? marami kasing reason.

    di naman nauubos. nababawas lang like isang bote ng maliit na mineral water... :lol: :lol: :lol: mahirap na baka mag overheat pa ko sa daan kaya refill lagi. cautious lang. ang question ko e kung normal ba na sumisirit ang tubig kahit 10mins pa lang bukas makina... :roll:

    normal lang ba na after 10 to 15 minutes nakabukas ang makina, when you try to open your radiator e tumatalsik ang tubig at radiator cap at mainit ang tubig? everyday tuloy nilalagyan ko ng tubig radiator para maiwasan mag overheat.

    and also after 15mins yung temp ko rises sa middle ng C and H. ok lang ba to? what could be the problem?
    I think there is a problem with your cooling system, may restriction or sediments/rust particles blockage which causes your temp to overheat. Buy a good radiator flushing solution (I highly recommend Prestone Power Flush) and give your radiator a good flush preferably a back flush. Put a 50/50 coolant and distilled water mix after the flush. Check also your hoses for brittleness and leaks, it may be due for replacement. Now, if your temp is going past beyond the half mark after reaching the operating temp, your thermostat might be defective have it replaced. :wink:

    Cool gal, you can have it checked sa certified mechanics, dun ka na pumunta sa mga reputable shops.

    I have the same case like that, dinala ko sa servitek. They check the entire cooling system from reservoir, to the hoses, radiators, water pump, and gaskets. they found the cause of the leak is in the gasket. so nilagyan lang ng sealant and walah solve yung problema.

    kung kelangan mo yung silicone sealant pahiramin kita, dami pa kasi sobra eh
