butas sa . . .

mga bossings,

ang coolant reserve ko may maliit na butas yung sinasaksakan ng rubber tube. yung papuntang radiator.
puwede bang epoxy or kahit anong sealant dun?
ano mga possible na mangyari kung maiwan pa ng ganito ito?

get a new hose and new clamps... otherwise, you'll keep losing coolant and might overheat...

silicone sealant can be used. just make sure na dry ung surface upon application.

Yup, silicone sealant can be used, but it will be subjected occasionally to high pressure. Mura lang naman yung hose na yun, kasi maliit lang yung diameter at maigsi lang length. Yung clamps naman 5petot each lang. So buying a new one is a better alternative

I tried the high-temp silicone sealant on my PS hose. Di umubra, talagang malakas masyado pressure from the PS pump. Which is why most replacement PS hoses are steel-reinforced.

yung plastic container ba mismo ang may maliit na butas?

pioneer epoxy gamitin mo kung medyo malaki ang butas. linisin mo lang ng mabuti at lihain ang application point. madalas may langis-langis yan.

Do this instead of patching the hole. It's safer.

palitan mo na lang, maraming mabiling hose na ganyan, it won't cost you 100 siguro

hindi nman sa rubber tube ang butas. kung duon, eh di pinalitan ko na for safety reasons.
dun sa parang elbow na kinakabitan ng rubber tube. ito yung kulay puti(m) na plastic na coolant
raserve.
ang ginawa ko nilagyan ko lang ng puting sealant, yung nasa parang toothpaste ang lalagyan. ayos naman. wala na butas. pag me suweldo na palit na ng reservoir

if it's on a 95 civic (EG) you should be fine, that reservoir is simply an overflow tank, it doesn't get pressurized or anythin' at all. you can even go without it...
