No, you should never ride without the engine cap, even for a short amount of time, when the car is overheating. Just park the car for about 20 minutes and see if that helps. Add water if needed.
Are you sure its the rad? BMW suffered from viscous fan failure. Symptoms were overheating in stationary traffic but ok when driving along.
Not unless it is a carburated engine.
Because they have an engine and if the engine cant have a break it will explode.~There can be several reasons, depending on the car/truck and the overheating problem. Check the basics after it has cooled awhile i.e. Check hoses, fan belt, oil level, coolant level and look for obvious coolant leaks. If those things are OK, give it another try and I bet it will start. NOTE: This should be a reminder to have the vehicle serviced ASAP.
You will wear out your and brake, and make the engine work harder.ANS 2 You will overheat the brake and strain the engine. If you didn't smell brake overheating, you may be OK. However you should re-adjust this brake as it should have prevented the car from moving.
you looked at it Timing out of adjustment can cause overheating.
Yes,1.6 is ok for a family car,100 ps and 150 nm,in a ff drive is ok.
check for a stuck thermostat. to do this simply squeeze your air in take line once your engine has warmed up and if it had pressure your thermostat is OK Check the fluid in your radiator to see if there is enough and if it is still in good condition,
you can run a car with no air filter but not for to long otherwise the engine will suck in all the dust witch will harm the engine.
Yes, but be wary of dropping it back into 'Drive' while you are still rolling and engine RPM is low. This will not be good for the transmission.
No. He is still alive. He did get in a car accident and almost died. But he is OK.
When a car is moving, more air is being pushed through the radiator because of its forward motion. That extra air removes more heat from the coolant, which in turn can absorb more heat from the engine. When a car stops, so does the extra air. If the radiator can't provide sufficient cooling under those circumstances, then the engine will overheat. You may have a faulty fan clutch, damaged or missing fan shroud or leave debris restricting air flow.
