How to Deal with an Overheated Engine?

[McMadelyn]

Engine overheating can be handled by following these steps: 1. Pull over to the side of the road and let the engine idle for a while; 2. Cool down the radiator with water before turning off the engine and replacing the belt; 3. Wait until the engine has completely cooled down, then replace the water hose and add coolant. The causes of engine overheating include: 1. Insufficient antifreeze; 2. Malfunction of the engine water pump; 3. Overloaded air conditioning or faulty cooling components; 4. Thermostat failure; 5. Dirty radiator; 6. Poor coolant circulation. Engine overheating refers to a situation where the engine's operating temperature exceeds the normal working range, affecting the machine's performance and potentially causing damage.
