2004 chevy cavalier water level gauge

In case of 2004 chevy cavalier water shortage, the general water temperature alarm light will be on. If the engine is short of water, the lack of cooling water will cause poor heat dissipation of the engine, and then the engine water temperature will rise, and the water temperature alarm lamp will light up. Water temperature indicator lamp -- an indicator lamp that shows the excessive temperature of the engine coolant. When this lamp lights up the alarm, stop the 2004 chevy cavalier engine immediately and shut down the engine. Continue driving after it has cooled to normal temperature.

Old cars lack water lights. Old cars generally have a yellow light similar to a boat. In particular, the 2004 chevy cavalier has a small fork in a yellow square box. The old Mercedes Benz has a water tank sign that is also a yellow light. If there is water shortage or high temperature, the light will light up. Ordinary cars are different. However, there is no lack of water light in the new cars. There is a display or alarm prompt on the LCD screen of the odometer or the LCD screen in the instrument panel. So add a water level gauge is necessary.

The water in the car is not real water, but antifreeze. The engine coolant, also called antifreeze, is added to the engine cooling system. It is better to install a water level gauge on the vehicle. Pay attention to the quality when using antifreeze. If the quality of antifreeze is poor or even fake, it will not play the role of antifreeze. The coolant is prepared by mixing antifreeze and water in a certain proportion. Automobile manufacturers usually specify the mixing ratio of antifreeze for different low temperature antifreeze grades in the user manual, and also specify the antifreeze model, which cannot be mixed.

Generally, when the ratio of antifreeze to water is 40:60, the boiling point of coolant is 106 ℃, and the freezing point is - 26 ℃. When the ratio is 50:50, the boiling point of coolant is 108 ℃, and the freezing point is - 38 ℃. Generally, the coolant shall be prepared at about 5 ℃ lower than the local minimum temperature. The effective service life of antifreeze is usually two years, and the coolant should be replaced when it expires or is found dirty.
