Is it okay if the engine overheats once?
1 Answers
Generally, if the engine overheats once and is handled properly, there will be no issues. However, improper handling can damage internal engine components. Here is some extended information: 1. Overheating: When driving, if the water temperature reaches around 100°C, the water in the radiator will boil, causing the engine to emit steam or spray water. This situation is commonly referred to as 'overheating.' 2. Causes: Overheating occurs because the engine's cooling system malfunctions, preventing normal cooling during operation and leading to excessively high water temperature. Common causes include a faulty thermostat, damaged cooling fan, low coolant level in the radiator, or circulation blockage. It is necessary to inspect the related components of these parts.
