Do the engine have to be warm to check for coolant leak with a radiator pressure tester?

To check for a coolant leak with a radiator pressure tester, the engine does not have to be warm. In fact, it's safer to perform the test when the engine is cool to avoid the risk of burns. Here are the general steps to perform a coolant pressure test: Make sure the engine and the system is cool since hot coolant can burn, and that the cooling system has no pressure. If the coolant level is low, add water or coolant to raise it. Remove the radiator cap once the system is cool and depressurized. Connect the pressure tester to the coolant reservoir or the radiator. Pump the pressure tester to apply pressure to the cooling system without going over the system's psi number on the radiator cap, which the pressure tester's gauge measures. If the pressure gauge drops quickly, there is a leak. The slower the gauge drops, the smaller the leak. As for your Buick, it's possible that the intake manifold gasket is leaking coolant. This is a common problem in many GM vehicles, including Buicks34. The coolant can leak externally, or in some cases, it may leak internally, causing coolant to mix with the engine oil. Operating the engine with a coolant/oil mix can result in internal engine damage. If you suspect this is the case, it's recommended to get it checked and repaired by a professional mechanic.

Has anyone ever bored a engine cylinder with a cutoff wheel attached to a drill to install a sleeve?

The problem I see straightaway is when the engine gets hot, the compound used to retain and keep the liner in place will let go and the sleeve will move causing catastrophic damage to the piston, cylinder wall and head.

2001 Nissan navara td27. Need to locate the relay for the dash an indacators any ideas?

There is no relay for the dash indicators. I'm assuming you're referring to the dashboard's instrument panel. There's a 10amp fuse for the instrument panel that you should check and/or replace. It's in location F11 of the fuse box, located in the vehicle on the driver's side. https://fuse-box.info/nissan/nissan-navara-d22-1997-2004-fuses-and-relay

1995 Buick Roadmaster. Both fans are running when starting and relays heating up under the hood. Any suggestions please?

Question edited for clarity. Question moved to model category. It sounds like the relays are permanently closed circuit, so the contacts are fused together and the solenoid coil inside is burning up. It can also burn up the female contacts in the base. Test and swap them out, before the fire. Take the leads of the multimeter and connect them across the coil terminals of the relay. For a normal coil, the multimeter should read anywhere between 40? to 120?. If the coil is damaged i.e., it is open, the meter shows out of range and you have to replace the relay.

I have a Vauxhall insignia and the battery is dead

As Steve Pack said, you replace a dead battery. And if there is some other issue regarding the battery, you are in good hands with Steve. Respond to his query. If the battery is indeed dead, you can jump-start your Insignia using jumper cables and a healthy battery from another vehicle. Connect the red cable to the positive terminal of your Insignia's dead battery and then to the positive terminal of the donor battery. Next, connect the black cable to the negative terminal of the donor battery and then to bare metal in the engine bay of your Insignia. Start the donor vehicle and then your Insignia. Finally, remove the cables in reverse order.

My Kia picanto 2005 model 1.1 is overheating but it can run for distance and thereafter it automatically switch itself off

If you are not sure what you are doing when repairing a car get a qualified repairer to do it for you. The most common reason for overheating is a bad thermostat in the cooling system Get that checked and replaced if it's bad. they're usually cheap to buy. The Spark plugs will not cause overheating. What exactly do you mean by "tried to change the spark plugs"?

Is it still worth buying a Tesla in 2024?

Buying a Tesla has issues and replacement battery costs are indeed astronomical. Tesla restricts who can service, and for whatever reason Tesla want to stop you driving, they can just remotely turn your car off, for instance if you don't getting serviced after being reminded a few times. The costs of using Tesla Fast chargers is not that different to buying gas. The future of electric vehicles has a long way to go, and some manufacturers are dropping out of the race. Getting 40 kilometers (I am in Canada) from your hybrid is dreadful mileage. Thinking about Carbon Footprint and being 'Eco', the mining of the lithium for a Tesla battery is not good for the planet, then they have to be reprocessed at end of life. Have you seen what happens when a lithium battery spontaneously combusts! Lots to consider. Look are Scotty Kilmer on YouTube, he is very anti-electric vehicles, but provides facts from trade publications in a fun and informative manner. ..
