Coolant Overflow

[rw789]

Ok, so today was a hot day and I drove a lot. It's not over heating, but it's pushing overflow from the coolant tank. The tank is full to the top and I haven't addad water in a while. It's all clay looking and I'm wondering it I have a blocked up radiator. Any Ideas?

Trans fluid cooler in the radiator broke mixing Trans fluid with engine coolant.
Sucks to be me today.

In my opinion, the transmission cooler in the radiator is one of the biggest weak links in the H2 design. I keep saying someday I'm going to put in an aftermarket transmission cooler................I've been saying that for years.......$250 and an afternoon's work???

this site is great,I found out about the problem with the trans cooler in the rad ,and went with the external cooler the first month I got the H2. and it works for cooling the trans better as well . glad I did it B4 I got hit for a trans.
