What is the sign of insufficient engine coolant?
1 Answers
The insufficient engine coolant warning light displays a thermometer shape, and there is also a kettle-shaped indicator. The functions of antifreeze are introduced as follows: Cooling function: Cooling is the basic function of coolant. The engine generates a large amount of heat during operation, with 60% of this heat being dissipated into the surrounding space through the cooling system. Water and methanol coolants have low boiling points and are prone to boiling. If the vehicle operates under conditions where the coolant is boiling, even for a short period, it can cause engine damage or even complete failure. Anti-scaling function: The coolant should minimize the formation of scale during circulation to prevent clogging of the circulation pipes and affecting the heat dissipation function of the cooling system. In summary, one should be cautious when selecting and adding coolant.
