The engine may be seriously damaged by overheating your vehicle. In general, the engine operating temperature is between 70-90 degrees. While you are driving your vehicle, it can prevent you from damaging material and moral damage by controlling the temperature of the temperature.

There may be a lot of reasons for an engine to overheat. Fan propeller is not working, fan sender is defective, thermostat faulty, water hoses are broken, advance setting is bad, air in cooling system, fan belt is loose or broken, radiator is blocked from inside or outside. .

The fan may not be engaged. Check the fan connections and cables. If there are oxidised connection points, clean the oxide and reconnect it. If the fan is not working even though the connections are normal, the fan sender may be faulty. In this case, the fan sender needs to be changed. If there is no water left in the radiator, the fan system will not work.

The thermostat may have malfunctioned. To find out whether the thermostat is defective, when the temperature of your vehicle rises, look at the temperature of the radiator, if it is cold, it may not have opened the thermostat or there is no water left in the radiator. If the engine is heated, the pipes leading to the radiator have failed if it is cold or warm.

The radiator may have aired. If you have recently performed any operation that requires replacement of engine water, such as antifreeze replacement, water change or recirculation pump replacement, your radiator may have air. Another reason for making air is leaks in the plumbing and the cylinder head gasket is burned or the cylinder head is cracked. What needs to be done to remove the radiator air. Many models of vehicles have air intake valves in the water pipes or radiator upper parts to breathe air. Almost all new model vehicles discharge radiator air (as the engine starts). If there is no bleed plug, open the radiator cap. Pay attention to the pressure of the radiator when it is hot. It may cause water to squirt and burns. Open the radiator cap with a thick cloth and slowly open it. if it happens, add it.

The circulation pump is leaking. Or the circulation pump may have malfunctioned. If the engine speed increases, the temperature decreases and if the temperature increases as the speed decreases, you may suspect the leakage. If the pump is dismantled, the rotation height will not affect the bar.
There may be too much fuel coming in. If your car is with injector, there may be voiding-instability in the injectors. You can understand this situation from the vibration, sound, fuel height and exhaust smoke of the engine.

The fan belt may be broken or loose. The fan belt operates the water circulation pump.If the belt is broken, the water cannot circulate and the temperature rises. It needs to stretch one or a half inches

There may be calcification or clogging inside the radiator. Even if the fan system is operating, calcification prevents the water from cooling sufficiently. Due to the external channels of the radiator being blocked, air passage between the ducts is restricted and the radiator cannot cool the water.

Decreasing the engine oil level may increase the temperature. The lubrication system also helps the engine to cool.

Due to the leakage of water from the radiator hoses, the water level decreases and the temperature increases.
If the advance setting of the vehicle is broken, it may cause the temperature to rise again.
