When a van won't restart after driving for a short distance on a hot day, it often indicates an issue with the engine overheating. This can be caused by a malfunctioning cooling system, such as a low coolant level, a faulty thermostat, or a failed water pump. The elevated engine temperature can lead to vapor lock or other heat-related failures, preventing the engine from starting until it cools down. Additionally, electrical components like the ignition system may also be sensitive to heat, causing further starting issues.

Yes, the C90 is an air cooled engine, the oil that runs through the little radiator is crankcase oil and is cooled in the system to help keep the engine temp down.


In motorbike terms what does 'watercooled' and 'air cooled' mean?

well a watercooled motorcycle has a radiator much like a car... it works the same way, you would see it on the front of the bike, behind the front tire... this type of cooling is great for in town or when doing a lot of idling because it is automatically keeping the engine at a proper temperature all the time... an air cooled motorcycle engine is cooled by the wind and air around the motorcycle while driving... therefore if you are spending a lot of time idling there is little wind cooling the engine and there is a possibility of the engine over heating or running too hot... what this means is if you're spending more time on the highway than you are idling, air cooled is perfectly fine and a little cheaper, if you spend more time idling than you do on the highway than you may be better off getting a water cooled bike

What is a small engine?

2 stroke engine...lawnmower engine I'll offer a second opinion: any utility engines used for driving equipment such as mowing, shredding, concrete mixing, or other uses that is smaller than what one would consider suitable for powering a car is a small engine. The four cylinder Wisconsin that powers a farmer's baler is a small engine, as is the 5 horsepower single cylinder Briggs & Stratton that came on your portable generator. Or the little two-stroker on your weed wacker. Most small engines are air-cooled, but the International Harvester small engine that powers the Ferris Wheel at the summer carnival is water-cooled, so small engines can be water cooled too. Wouldn't really matter if it was 2 stroke or 4 stroke. Each has advantages.

Yes, all two stroke oil can be used in any two stroke engine.

Why does my V40 dci knock when started from cold and goes when engine is warm?

Diesel engines relies on heat generated by compression to ignite the fuel. When the engine is newly started the air the gets compressed also gets a little cooled by the still-cold engine block, so the ignition is a little delayed and the engine runs rougher. With a warm engine the the compressed air gets a bit warmer, so the engine fires easier and runs smoother.
