water temp gauge vs stock coolant gauge

• 2022-07-25

The coolant is used to cool the engine . The vehicle water temperature gauge shows the temperature of the coolant. The two are closely related . The car is no longer cooled by water . The so-called "water tank" is filled with coolant , so the coolant temperature is the "water temperature" . It cannot be replaced by water. One is that the boiling point of water is low, and the other is that general water has scale. 3. For sub zero areas, water will freeze and expand. It will damage the pipeline and engine. For old cars, cooling water must be drained at night in the north. 4. It is easy to rust the iron parts in the pipeline. Therefore , special coolant is generally used. So , the water temp gauge is stock coolant gauge , they are same one .

Once the car runs at high temperature for a long time , it will cause serious damage to the engine . This requires that you should pay attention to the indication of the water temperature gauge from time to time when driving .

Once the car runs at high temperature for a long time , it will cause serious damage to the engine . This requires that you should pay attention to the indication of the water temperature gauge from time to time when driving . Especially in summer , the relatively hot weather is likely to cause high engine temperature . Therefore , when driving in summer, pay special attention to the water temperature gauge of your car . Do not let the pointer of the water temperature gauge indicate the red alarm area .

If the pointer indicates the red alarm area of the water temperature gauge , drive the car to the roadside in time , stop and check to see if the engine is boiling. If the boiler is indeed boiling (once the water tank is boiling , it is strictly forbidden to open the water tank cover with bare hands to avoid scalding) ,do not start the car at this time to let it cool down slowly, then wait for rescue or supplement cooling water , and then drive to the nearby maintenance station for inspection and maintenance , Find out the cause of high water temperature and eliminate the fault in time .
