A coolant overflow pipe, also called an overflow hose, is a tube connected to a car's coolant reservoir that allows excess coolant to escape when the engine heats up and pressure builds within the cooling system, preventing damage by releasing the extra fluid into the overflow tank instead of letting it burst out elsewhere; essentially acting as a safety valve for the cooling system.
Key points about the coolant overflow pipe:
Function: When the coolant in the engine gets too hot and expands, the pressure increases, causing the coolant to push through the overflow pipe into the overflow tank.
Location: This pipe is usually attached to the top of the coolant reservoir.
Importance: A properly functioning overflow pipe is crucial to prevent overheating issues by regulating coolant pressure within the engine.
