99 Starex Water Reservoir Woes

[malkavian]

hello everyone, may tanong lang po sana ako sa group. all inputs are appreciated. Anyway, we own a 98 model, recently i noticed that the radiator reservoir always seems to run out of h20. whenever i put some water in, i check underneath but there are no leaks. also, whenever im driving(city), the aircon periodically stops producing cool air for around 5 minutes, then voila, cool air comes back again. any diagnosis for this? thanks

check the radiator cap. if it's busted magbabawas ng tubig yan. bring it to an a/c shop so you can have the a/c checked...

minsan may maliit na butas ang tubes ng radiator na hinde na tutulo dahil mag eevaporate na agad sa init. kung isang araw nauubos ang laman ng reserve malaki laking butas na yan. pero pa check niyo muna ang takip then observed again.

actually, yes. this is very true (maski na si speedyfix ang nagpost).
na experience ko na kasi ito eh. medyo pulpol na yung goma ng radiator cap so malakas ang evaporation. nung nagpalit ako, nawala na yung sakit.

yung sa sentra ko naman ok lang yung cap, sa hose naman siya nasingaw dahil maluwag yung hose clamp after mahigpitan ayun ok na di na bumababa tubig ng radiator, check mo na din
