Miller Posted September 8, 2006 Share Posted September 8, 2006 I've got a problem with my 1990 Legacy wagon. Whenever you push the motor....the radiator stops flowing. It almost looks like it's leaking from the right side of the radiator (Near the coolant reservoir) but I can't see anything dripping out of the hoses down there. The only thing that seems to fix it....is if I leave the car off for a while and let it cool off for a bit....and then it works fine until you push it hard enough again. Thoughts anybody? Oh, and....howdy everybody. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you mean te car is over heating, most likely cause is a clogged raditor. If it is boiling over, check to see if you have heat. If you dont its a possible head gasket. Is the resivoir full or overfull? nipper Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Legacy777 Posted September 12, 2006 Share Posted September 12, 2006 Yeah....not sure what you mean. The radiators tend to get a leak in the front of the radiator where the top radiator hose goes in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
