What could cause me to have no fluid in my radiator?

Answer by  fordguy777 (346)

Usually this is due to a crack in the radiator from an accident or hitting a large speed bump causing a crack in the coolant delivery. Also, the fluid reservoir could be damaged and cause a leak.

Having no fluid in the radiator can be caused by a leak in the radiator or in a coolant hose. A bad water pump will also expel coolant.

Well the most obvious thing that I can think of is that there is a leak in the system. For there to be none in it I would say quite a big leak. Otherwise you may have a cracked head or block that is letting coolant burn off in the combustion chamber.

You may have a leak in your radiator or hoses. You could have a cracked engine block or you do not have a reserve tank and are loosing fluid there.
