radiator over heating
Hello,
A garage that performed work on my vehicle has told me that them leaving the cap off the coolant reservoir container (not the radiator itself) would not result in the radiator losing coolant, and eventually overheating, which mine did, 8 days later. This is in a 2007 Honda Civic, and the cap has a tube built in which comes directly from the radiator. This then lead to my engine block cracking (which a service bulletin warns about when this engine overheats).
Could you please respond to whether or not this would be possible and/or likely IF the cap where left off the coolant reservoir container?
