How to make the working temperature of the engine stay within normal limits?

High engine temperature is a big trouble for every car owner. Probably, each of us saw "Zhiguli" and "GAZel" standing on the roadside with "boiling" motors, especially in the summer. In general, the operating temperature of the engine should not exceed the mark of 90 degrees Celsius. If the temperature indicator turns into a red scale, it threatens with an increased wear of all parts and accessories of the internal combustion engine up to complete failure. The best protection of the motor from overheating is, of course, prevention. Therefore, in order to once again not to buy new parts after such incidents, below we will give the basic rules for ensuring that the working temperature of the engine always remains within normal limits.

Radiator cooling

It is this element that affects the heating or cooling of the engine. On how intense cooling will be, the operating temperature of the engine will also depend . VAZ 2112, like many other cars , is often equipped with special blinds in the winter (in the budget version, pieces of cardboard are taken), which are placed under the grille. They reduce the flow of cold air, so the operating temperature of the engine increases significantly. In contrast to winter in summer, such devices are dismantled, and radiators are sometimes replaced by more voluminous ones. For example, "GAZelists" put 3-sectional radiators instead of standard 2-section ones. The area of penetration of cold air increases by 1.5 times, so the risk of overheating is significantly reduced. Similar actions can be performed with any other car, even the "ten". Then the operating temperature of the VAZ 2110 engine will always be normal.

Tightness

The lower part of the internal combustion engine must always be closed or at least half-closed. The less air gets underneath the hot asphalt, the lower the engine operating temperature. The hood should be slightly opened slightly until the protective protective lock is triggered. Often, the owners of "Zhiguli" and "GAZel" place in this slot a plastic bottle, so that there is more air entrainment. But it is desirable to do this only when the working temperature of the engine reaches 95 or more degrees (or millimeter from the red scale).

Thermostat

This part directly affects the temperature and the condition of the antifreeze in the radiator. That the internal combustion engine in the summer is not "boiling", you can remove this part from the car. But at the same time it is necessary to damp a small circle of cooling, otherwise there will be no sense from such actions. Sometimes drivers who have a 90-degree thermostat install 80- and 70-degree parts for more efficient cooling.

And one more thing: in order for the antifreeze to effectively cool the motor, you need to make a timely replacement. The antifreeze is dissolved approximately every three months.

Conclusion

If you follow these rules, the operating temperature of the engine of your car will always be on the green scale.
