What are the impacts of low car coolant temperature?
1 Answers
The impacts of low car coolant temperature are as follows: 1. Increased fuel consumption: Low car coolant temperature can lead to poor gasoline atomization, incomplete combustion, reduced power, increased fuel consumption, and more carbon deposits. 2. Impact on engine performance: The normal operating temperature of a car engine is generally around 90 degrees Celsius. Low coolant temperature can have certain effects on engine performance. Firstly, there is the issue of the clearance between moving parts. When the temperature is low, parts expand less, resulting in excessive clearance and reduced power. The temperature of the engine oil also decreases, increasing its viscosity, which raises the engine's operating resistance and affects power output.
