5 Things Need to Consider for Maintaining the Radiator

EUROPE 5 Things Need to Consider for Maintaining the Radiator REPAIR o Radiator allows the engine to operate within the normal temperature. o It is a vital part of the car because it heats the engine vents during operation. o If the coolant gets hot enough to boil, then it will burst the weakened radiator. o Radiator of the car can overheat for numerous reasons such as: Poor airflow through the radiator Low coolant level Slipping fan clutch Lose water pump Defective radiator cap Lower radiator hose Defective thermostat FOR MAINTAINING THE RADIATOR OF THE CAR, YOU HAVE TO CONSIDER THE FOLLOWING POINTS: COOLING SYSTEM o Check the leaks of the coolant for the proper maintenance of the radiator. • Make a visual inspection of the entire cooling system as well as the radiator cap. FANS AND WATER PUMPS o When the engine gets hot, make sure that the fan cycles of the electric fan are on. o Replace the wobble pump shaft or seepage for the proper function of the radiator. THERMOSTAT • When the engine has overheated, change the thermostat of the car immediately. o If you left it untreated, then it can affect the computer system and cause emission problems. EXCESSIVE EXHAUST o Clogged catalytic converter will cause excessive exhaust backpressure in the car. o First, check the intake vacuum. If it reads low, then inspect the exhaust system. BELTS AND HOSES o Check the belt tension because it can prevent the water pump from circulating coolant. o Check the radiator hose to ensure that it will not collapse under vacuum at high speed. CONCLUSION o Common cause of malfunctioned radiator is its physical damage. • Consult with a reputed and certified mechanic to maintain the radiator of the car. MATE
