How to determine the superheated engine

In the summer, in hot weather, motorists may have an unpleasant situation - engine overheating. A similar problem occurs in the spring, because the engine cooling system has worked on wear for all winter. Drops of temperature, not a preheated engine, salt solutions make their own business. All parts of the motor are very sensitive even to a single increase in temperature regime and entail a bunch of unpleasant consequences, for the elimination of which will have to fork.

1
Determine the superheated engine is not an armed eye. The coolant temperature sensor will help. If the arrow of the pointer moves to the red scale zone, then you need to score alarm.

2
If the cause of overheating has become a small arrival of antifreeze, the heater will cease to deliver hot air into the salon. The same can happen when boiling antifreeze.

3
The confonation appeared on the critical value of the temperature in the system - a characteristic knock. When overheating the walls of the camera does not occur normal burning of fuel, and when they click on the gas pedal, you can hear a ringing knock.

4
All these external signs sometimes remain not noticed, since during the movement due to noise you can not hear detonation, and in the summer heater is generally disconnected. In this case, when the engine is continued, the engine power drops, and the sound is enhanced. Further not solving the problem can lead to significant damage to the engine.

5
You can also determine the overheating on cracks, deformations of the head of the cylinder block and the cracking edge of the gasket.

6
Look under the hood on the expansion tank. Darmentation on its walls, white flakes on antifreeze indicates overheating and oil getting into the cooling system through the gasket of the GBC.

If such an unpleasant case happened to you - stop on the side of the road, turn off the engine and open the hood. This is the fastest way to cool the engine.
