What are the effects of insufficient car antifreeze?
1 Answers
Insufficient car antifreeze can cause the engine to overheat, leading to damage. The normal operating temperature of an engine is between 90°C and 120°C. Once the antifreeze is insufficient, it can easily cause risks such as engine overheating. Antifreeze has the characteristics of a high boiling point and low freezing point, with a boiling point around 110°C, which can effectively maintain the engine within the normal operating temperature and protect the engine. The full name of antifreeze is antifreeze coolant, meaning a coolant with antifreeze function. It can prevent the coolant from freezing and cracking the radiator or damaging the engine cylinder block or head when the car is parked in cold winter.
