Interesting Mechanical Problem With No Fix In Sight

Posted on by

The plastic radiator tanks coming apart internally and plugging up your heater core.

Of course the industry will never, ever go back to Brass radiators because they are outrageously expensive.

So what are you supposed to do?

The only thing I can think of is to reverse flush your heater core every year to try and keep as much of that crap out of your cooling system as possible and replace your damn radiator every 3 years.

Something else I learned 30 years ago when I was going to school to work on the newer (Then) cars, your radiator and cooling system hoses rot from the inside out. The friction of the coolant running through the engine gives the coolant an electrical charge and that charge pulls the carbon out of the rubber from the inside of the hoses.

That’s probably what’s happening with the plastic radiator tanks too.

We just paid a shit ton of money replaceing ELEVEN freaking hoses on the Wifely Unit’s 2004 Ford Focus with silicone hoses to eleiminate that issue.
