coolant drip

Hi. I have a question. Does the coolant drip from the coolant tank to the radiator? The hose on the right.

Thanks,

Chad

It can, especially after you first change/fill coolant, some will splash and be forced if the rad cap needs to relieve pressure. But it shouldn't drip continuously.

Thanks,

If A/C is on or coolant temp is over 195 (i think), one fan should turn. If it's over some higher temp, both fans should turn.
