A very common problem of drivers is engine overheating or engine boiling, which can be done

Often car owners are faced with the problem of overheating or engine boiling. This common breakdown is dangerous for engine parts, which must be taken in the event of this kind of breakage.

What and how does it cool us?

The car is provided by the engine cooling system, which supports the necessary thermal mode, ensuring cooling and timely heating.

Most cars use a liquid cooling system. Instead of water in the cooling system, a special liquid "Tosol" or "Antifreeze" is used, which has a property to skip at higher temperatures than water. When Tosol exceeds its normal temperature, the engine overheat or boils.

Causes and signs of engine overheating

The reasons for overheating can be the most different - this is a scored radiator, fan failure, thermostat malfunction or radiator cover, fluid deficiency in the cooling system.

Weak engine overheating most often does not have any special negative consequences.

This can happen when the thermostat or fan is cracked.

As soon as alarming signs appeared, you need to quickly drown the car and wait for the engine cool.

Try to determine the cause of overheating.

If smoke is noticeable, then send the car to the diagnostics to the car dealership.

Middle and strong overheating, about 15 minutes or more, leads to serious consequences.

Multiple partitions on pistons can be collapsed, oil skip is possible, gaskets can overdo it.

If strong overheating happened, damage covers all parts of the engine, in the most difficult cases can lead to ignition.

Useful advice

- It is necessary to stop the car, not the shower of the engine and giving it the opportunity to work in good.

As soon as the temperature falls, drown out the engine and wait for its cooling.

 

- It is necessary to avoid sharp cooling - it deforms the valves and other details.

A block of cylinders or its head can break.

Therefore, it is impossible to top up in a hot engine cold liquid.

- It is also impossible to cool it with watering with cold water.  

It is not recommended to open the corks of the radiator and the expansion tank at high temperatures, due to the pressure, the whole liquid will "splash" outward, you can get thermal burns.

Therefore, it is necessary to wait for a complete cooling of the engine, and only then add toosol.
