You should never open your radiator pressure cap or coolant overflow bottle when your engine is hot. Hot coolant and steam can cause severe burns. Check your owner's manual, or ask you service advisor about when you should have your coolant replaced. At Neubauer's Auto Repair in Ellicott City we install quality NAPA replacement parts.
