One way to avoid overheating
This simple warning delivered Emergency Roadside Assistance (ERA) AstraWorld. Preferably, the radiator cap does not open the lid too often. Open the lid is made at the time drain water to the radiator. Because, too often open the radiator cap radiator cap will increase the chances of damaged.
If there is damage to the radiator cap, auto component work is disrupted. One possibility that emerged later when a damaged radiator cap is overheating, engine temperatures are above normal limits.
We certainly have memorized when the engine overheating. Because of the heat that exceeds tolerance, the engine may not sound normal, less powerful, wasteful of fuel, even strike in the middle of the road.
Indeed there are many things that cause overheating. In essence these conditions arise because the cooling system not working properly. In some cases AstraWorld ERA found that overheating was gradually sticking out because there is a problem on the radiator cap.
In terms of function, the radiator cap is an equal role in terms of keeping the engine temperature. This component will maintain the volume of water in the engine cooling system.
The role was run by the valves on the radiator cap. There are two valves in this component are: tap valve and vacuum valve. Both these valves which alternately sucking out and rotates so that water from a reservoir tank (reserve tank) to the radiator.
Well, the two valves on the radiator cap is likely to be damaged if the radiator cap is often open. Because of the damage, water circulation then becomes not good. What's worse, the volume gradually decreases because of the radiator water spilled out through the tank reservoir.
Lack of water is then lead to overheating.
Therefore, to detect the occurrence of damage to the radiator cap can be done by looking at the water reservoir tank. Check water levels in the tank. If the reserve tank is always full (even water out of the hose in the reservoir tank cap), this is a sign that the radiator cap had to be replaced.
