Does a Water-Cooled Engine Need Water?
1 Answers
Water-cooled engines require antifreeze instead of water, as prolonged use of water can cause rust in the radiator. Antifreeze serves to protect the radiator. Below are specific details about motorcycle water cooling: 1. Introduction: So-called water-cooled engines do not use pure water for cooling but rather specialized coolant. The difference between coolant and pure water is that coolant contains a certain proportion of pure or distilled water, but not entirely. Mixing pure water with specialized coolant in a specific ratio creates what is commonly referred to as motorcycle coolant. 2. Classification: Currently, motorcycle engine cooling types are mostly divided into air-cooled, water-cooled, and oil-cooled. The engine is the crucial chamber where the motorcycle burns fuel, akin to the central hub that distributes blood throughout the motorcycle's body. Fuel burns within the engine chamber to provide power for the entire vehicle.
