| | Engine Overheats
A car has recently been
overheating on the highway. The problem started
suddenly. One person says the problem is the
thermostat. But the thermostat was checked and
prove to be OK. What might cause and engine to
overheat? |
| | Solution:
One of the more common causes of an engine
overheating is a bad radiator pressure cap. The
radiator pressure cap is design to keep 15 pounds
of pressure on the cooling system. As the pressure
on the cooling system increases, the boiling point
also increases. If the pressure on the cooling
system has been reduce (bad radiator pressure
cap), the boiling point is also reduce. Using a
pressure cap and cooling system tester, check the
cap, and replaced the cap if necessary. |
