SOURCE: over heating and radiator leaks. overheats after
The radiator leak needs to be fixed obviously and the cooling fans need to be checked for proper function.
When the radiator leaks, the coolant is replaced by air. The air is trapped in the engine cooling system and can not escape because of the leak and does not allow the coolant to circulate, causing an overheat condition.
The air in the cooling system does not conduct heat properly and caused the cooling fan to not start there by adding to the overheated condition.
Fix the leak, make sure the air is purged from the system and make sure the cooling fans work after the leak is fixed.
Good luck.
