What are the effects of high temperature on a car engine?

[LukasLee]

The effects on the engine are as follows: 1. Increased wear: The expansion of engine components reduces the clearance between parts, intensifying engine wear. 2. Reduced lifespan: It causes the engine oil viscosity to decrease, leading to accelerated wear of components and a shortened engine lifespan. 3. Damage to the cylinder head gasket: This may result in cross-flow between water, oil, and air passages on the gasket, causing oil to enter the radiator or water to mix with engine oil. Additional information: An engine is a machine that converts other forms of energy into mechanical energy, including internal combustion engines (reciprocating piston engines), external combustion engines (Stirling engines, steam engines, etc.), jet engines, electric motors, etc.
