One way to avoid overheating
This simple warning conveyed Emergency Roadside Assistance (ERA) AstraWorld. Instead, the radiator cap does not open the lid too often. Open the cover quite done at the time of drain water to the radiator. Because, too often open the radiator cap will increase the chances of faulty radiator cap.
If there is damage to the radiator cap, auto component work is disrupted. One possibility that appears later when the radiator cap is damaged is overheating, the temperature of the engine heat is above the normal limit.
We certainly had memorized when the engine is experiencing overheating. Because excess heat tolerance, the engine may not sound normal, less powerful, wasteful of fuel, even breaking down in the middle of the road.
Indeed there are many things that cause overheating. Essentially this condition arises because the cooling system is not working properly. In some cases AstraWorld ERA found that overheating is gradually sticking out because there are problems on the radiator cap.
In terms of function, the radiator cap holds the same role in terms of keeping the engine temperature. Component is what will keep 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 these components, namely: tap valve and vacuum valve. Both of these valves which alternately removing and sucking so that water from the tank spin reservoir (tank) to the radiator.
Well, the two valves on the radiator cap is what is most likely damaged when frequently opened the radiator cap. Because of the damage, water circulation then becomes not good. To make matters worse, over time the volume of water in the radiator decreases because spilled out through the reservoir tank.
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 the water levels in the tank. If the reserve tank is always full (even water out of the hose to the reservoir tank cover), is a sign that the radiator cap had to be replaced.
