The cooling system is responsible for maintaining the engine temperature within the optimum values for its operation. There are several reasons why it can stop working properly with the consequent car engine heating. Here we detail the most common:
Reasons why a car engine overheats
Clogged radiator
overheating of an engine could be caused by clogging of the internal circuit of the radiator. Rust and impurities cause the coolant to not circulate properly through the radiator and the rest of the cooling lines. Thus it is recommended to use a cooling system cleaner once every two years when the car is already old, after what there is to drain the antifreeze from the cooling circuit and then refill it.
Loss of coolant
Another cause of the car overheating could be loss of coolant due to a leak in the radiator, the hoses or the water pump. Keep in mind that the latter is the heart of the entire cooling system, since it is in charge of moving the coolant throughout the circuit.
Coolant loss could also be due to a bad radiator cap. In this case, it would not withstand the pressure of the radiator and the coolant would leak out, causing the engine to overheat.
To solve it, we recommend that you take it to a workshop. However, if you need to get out of a pinch, there are some do-it-yourself remedies if your car is leaking antifreeze, with the help of a few simple tools.
The car is heated by a bad water pump
Although the entire refrigeration circuit is in good condition, without leaks or obstructions, the problem may be that the refrigerant does not circulate through it. This is handled by the Water Pump, that if it does not do its job the fluid will not travel from the engine to the radiator and will heat up to damage the engine.
If that is your case, you should replace it as soon as possible and not use the vehicle until the problem is fixed. Otherwise, the workshop bill could rise much much more with faults such as the head gasket.
Bad electric fan
Another cooling system parts What needs to be checked is electric radiator fan. Its function is to pass air from outside the vehicle through the radiator and thus prevent the car from heating up. It usually works when the car is being demanded a lot, when we are moving at low speed or when we stop so that it does not exceed the appropriate temperature for its operation.
The temperature at which the main radiator fan is usually activated is 94ºC (although this depends on the model). If this does not happen, the problem is usually in the wiring or in the thermocontact which activates it.
One of the situations where you have to work the most is in traffic jams. The car has to constantly start and stop with no airflow to cool it. Also, even at high speeds, it can also work to support incoming air, if the car is subjected to heavy use.
Dirty radiator or bent fins
The fan may be working properly but the radiator is dirty. This can happen when you have driven through areas with a lot of mud, sand, leaves or any other element that can clog it enough so that the air does not circulate through it. Something that happens much more frequently to off-road vehicles or SUVs that usually move through the field.
to clean it, everything that prevents direct contact of the metal with the air must be removed. For this, the most common is to use pressurized water through the car grill. However, if the dirt is very embedded there are times when it is necessary to remove the bumper and use more effective measures.
For example, you can use a brush and soap (or specific product), and then rinse it with pressurized water, making sure that there are no remains. Be careful not to damage the radiator's thin metal sheets (also called fins). Use the brush gently and always in the direction of the grooves.
If the fins are bent, can be straightened with a fin comb for radiator. It is a cheap tool that comes with several measures for each type of radiator. As an emergency remedy, there are also people who have used the right size saw blade for their radiator. We advise against it because using such a hard metal tool can seriously damage your radiator. And with a pitted radiator, if you have a serious reason why the car heats up.
bad thermostat
Un bad thermostat It can also be a cause of the car overheating. This is a part that opens and closes the flow of coolant between the engine and the radiator. It opens when the engine is hot, so the radiator starts to cool down, and it stays closed when the engine is cold, so it can warm up quickly, without the radiator sucking heat away prematurely.
Si thermostat sticks when closed, the liquid will never reach the radiator. This causes the temperature to continue to rise while the engine is running, without the cooling system being able to do its job.
The opposite can also happen: when the thermostat stops working it stays open. This case does not concern us in this article because the car does not heat up. The consequence is that the engine will take a long time to warm up to its optimum operating temperature. The consequences of this breakdown are early wear of its parts and higher fuel consumption.
There is a usual trick to check the thermostat of our car easily. it involves putting your hand on the upper radiator hose with the engine running. If we notice it at room temperature, it can be said that the thermostat It is in poor condition and we have found the problem that causes the engine to overheat.
In any case, If the thermostat is not working properly, it should be replaced, not removed.. If this part is removed because it does not allow the engine to cool, the liquid will move freely (even more than if it is stuck in the open position), so you can create more problems than you want to solve.
Be careful with the coolant
Finally, we have the coolant or antifreeze liquid itself. this fluid can withstand high and low temperatures. In order for it to perform its function correctly, water should not be used instead, as it would facilitate the appearance of rust in the cooling system, favoring many of the aforementioned breakdowns.
They sell it already prepared directly for little money. But the coolant could be a mixture of 50% distilled water and 50% pure antifreeze. It is convenient to renew it every 2 or 4 years and in a trusted workshop you can make sure that it is replaced correctly. However, you can change antifreeze of the car yourself if you have the necessary tools.
It is also not advisable to mix different antifreeze liquids because some of them are not compatible. The main problem usually comes if an antifreeze is combined organic and one inorganic. A chemical reaction will be caused that will create sludge that can clog the system or at least reduce its cooling capacity. Which can cause the engine to overheat in extreme cases.
In addition to this, it is also not advisable to mix some types of antifreeze, even if they are organic. Antifreeze should never be mixed G11 and G12. And it is not recommended to mix G12 or G12+ with the G13,because it loses anti-corrosion properties. In the following article you have more details about this:
What happens if the car overheats
Overheating of an engine causes serious breakdowns that can lead to very high workshop bills. The best known of all in the head gasket failure, which literally opens the engine and causes, for example, antifreeze and oil leaks. A common way to detect it is mixture of both liquids in the expansion vessel. Although it can also be given through the oil cooler.
Another serious problem caused by overheating the car is a excess stress in the cylinders. Metals expand more than they should and friction increases. For example, with enlargement of the pistons inside the cylinders. This is more pronounced if the material is the aluminum, because it dilates two or three times more than iron.
Excess heat can also damage the valves prematurely and the components related to them. This can even cause them to lose the necessary tightness to seal the combustion chamber. Finally, coolant can boil and cause leaks from the radiator, hoses or other components of the cooling system.
What to take in the car in case of overheating
If the car overheats, it is advisable to have a small flashlight, a bottle of water, antifreeze y brake fluid in the car. Likewise, it is necessary to be clear about the basic knowledge that we indicate here about engine overheating. This can help us save money and a trip to the mechanic. Still, if the car continues to overheat, it's best to take it to a mechanic as soon as possible for a quick checkup.
In short, if the car overheats...
Cooling system is in charge of controlling the engine temperature, there are several causes for a overheated engine among them we have the following.
- If the car overheats, the cause could be a clogged radiator, this would cause the coolant to not circulate properly. Therefore, it is recommended to use a cleaner once a year. You could also find a radiator cap in poor condition, it would not withstand the pressure exerted on the radiator, this would cause loss of coolant and consequently engine overheating.
- Another cause could be loss of coolant, this due to leaks in the radiator, in hoses, in the water pump, it should be noted that this is the heart of the entire cooling system since it is in charge of circulating the coolant.
- It is also due check electric fan of the radiator, whose function is to pass air from outside the vehicle through the radiator and thus be able to dissipate its heat.
- Un bad thermostat, clogged by rust which causes the coolant to not reach the radiator to be cooled by the fan will result in overheating. This piece must be changed since doing without it would bring other problems such as fuel consumption since the engine would work relatively cold.
- Last we have the coolant. This liquid can withstand high and low temperatures. So if the car gets hot it won't boil easily. For this reason, water should not be used in the engine as it would facilitate the appearance of rust in the cooling system. The coolant could be an antifreeze that should be used in a ratio of 50% water and 50% antifreeze.

I have a 2002 Ford Fiesta, how do I know if it is the water pump that is damaged? I tell you that I only feel through touch that the camera (the cylinder head) gets hot, but the radiator and the return hose do not get hot.
I have a peugeot 306 at 120 km it starts to heat up but the top half of the radiator heats up, could it be that it is clogged? If anyone knows about this, I would appreciate an answer
If an engine overheats due to faults in the radiator, hollow hoses or a clogged or rusted thermostat.
I have a nissan sentra with a c16 engine it gets very hot but I already checked the radiator and it's good, the thermostat is good but I don't know if the cylinder head gasket would also cause overheating and the water pump I don't know how to test if it's good. please if you can help me
Hello friends from the virtual workshop, I am a driver of a UA Wagon R 2002 and it suffered overheating due to a hose that was damaged and was later replaced and my question is how can I test if the cylinder head (chamber) suffered any damage, what tests should I do, example, location of leaks etc.
I have a Kia Rio 2007, 1.5 engine, it has heating problems, I changed the camera gaskets, service the radiator, changed the temperature sensor, the radiator cap lasted three months and it heated up again, what do I have to do, thanks.
I have a problem with a volvo 123, it does not heat up, a kind of vacuum is formed, that is the impression when you put your hand in the radiator water inlet, the operation is normal, but when the engine is turned off the water begins to drain from the radiator, A hydrostatic test was carried out on the 6 cylinder heads, they are fine, I thought that some shirt was cracked, the 6 new shirts were changed again, and they did not improve at all.
This problem drags on since the water pump failed, 2 pumps have already been changed because the turbines were stung quickly.
If anyone has had a similar problem feel free to tell me.
I HAVE A CADILLAC 97 STS 8 CYL 4.6 IT WAS HOT, THEY HAVE ALREADY PLUGGED THE RADIATOR, REMOVED THE THERMOSTAT, THEY ADDED THE ANTIFREEZE
AND IT IS STILL WARMING, THE ORIGINAL PLUG WAS PURCHASED AND NOTHING THE MECHANIC CHECKED THE PUMP AND COMMENTED THAT IT IS OK, I DID NOT DISASSEMBLE IT COMPLETELY, I ONLY CHECKED THAT THE RAPELAS WERE OK, HOW DO YOU CHECK THE PUMP TO KNOW IF IT IS IN GOOD CONDITION OR NOT? WHAT ELSE COULD IT BE?
I HOPE YOUR HELP
THANK YOU SO MUCH
1.5 kia pride engine heating, what causes it?
I HAVE READ AND I THINK THE COMMENTS ARE INTERESTING AND SAVING, WELL, I HAVE A 2001 AZTEK, THE TEMPERATURE RAISES BY 2 LINES ALMOST TO FULL, THEY ALREADY CHECKED LEAKS, RADIATOR, WATER PUMP AND NOTHING, THEY CHANGED THE ANTIFREEZE THERMOSTAT PLUG GASKETS AND I DO NOT KNOW CORRECT WHAT COULD IT BE? PLEASE HELP
I have the same truck and the solution I found was to put an adaptation in the return hose to the radiator with a section of 1 1/2″ copper tube and a temperature bulb from vw caribe and if it works in my truck I hope you serve
Hello, I have a wagon r 2002 but it has the problem that it gets hot and I don't know why, who can help me please...
I have a limited 4×4 cherokee that at a certain speed the steering wheel vibrates a lot or when I go through a pothole in the road, can someone please tell me what to do?
I already aligned and balanced the tires but still with the problem
hey dario, my name is miguel; I had that problem and I did the same as you, align, balance, engine mounts, and one fine day, I took it to a suspension shop and immediately the good mechanic told me that it was in the STEERING DAMPER and apparently it was fine...
I'll change it, fly! Even the steering wheel felt different, I've had it for two years now without a problem. I'm sure that's...
I have a Megane II, 2006, it is overheating, it has been in the dealership for three days and they tell me that they have not been able to find the problem. To do ?
Thanks for your help .
I WOULD LIKE TO SAY THAT THEY TAKE A LONG TIME TO GIVE THE ANSWERS.
It went very well for me with the answers they gave me at valvulita.com. I was able to solve my car problem.
I have a malibu, with a 8 v-350 engine, which overheats to the point of water coming out of the container, the mechanics have changed the blade, the distributor, they have used the time lamp, they sent me to buy a radiator 04 channels, they changed the gaskets of the cameras. and still the engine overheats, I already have six months with this fault, I don't know what to do or who to take it to, because the previous ones have made me spend money and they haven't solved the fault.
Friend, I would like to know if you could fix that problem.. because my Malibu is the same.. I have already spent more than 30 thousand bolivars and it continues to overheat.. and I have done the same thing to it as you»
Can you tell me if you were able to fix the heating of the malibu, because that's how my car is, send me an email to abastosluzma@hotmail.com regards
Oh, to see if the car has a bad block joint or heads. It doesn't always mix water with oil, that test is done by removing the grater's lid, see if it throws water out while accelerating or if it smokes. Check that first. For silo it pulls the compression through some orifice. It's the first thing, I'll tell you more later
i have a 2001 chevrolet malibu 3.1 six cylinder engine; the fact is that he goes underground a lot; this happens when it is not in circulation and with the refrigeration running; the temperature rises like three stripes before the limit, but when I turn off the refrigeration, the temperature drops. They stripped the engine off this car, changed the gaskets, and brushed the heads. and since then it brings that problem. What can I do or what do you recommend?
I have a 4×4 chereoke and they changed the thermostat and it heats up to 210 (halfway) and throws the water away after heating up just by traveling 15 kilometers…
Please, if anyone knows what it should be, let me know.

I have a peugeot 306 and it is beginning to pass water for the oil, because drops of water are appearing on the oil dipstick, I changed the oil because I thought it was because I had not changed it for a long time but it is still the same. What could it be and how much will it cost me to repair? Thank you, I await your response.
I HAVE A PONTIAC GRAND PRIX 6 CYL MOD. 96 IT GETS HOT, THEY ALREADY REMOVED THE THERMOSTAT, THEY ADDED THE ANTIFREEZE
AND IT IS STILL WARMING UP, THE ORIGINAL PLUG WAS BOUGHT AND NOTHING THE MECHANIC CHECKED THE PUMP AND COMMENTED THAT IT IS OK, I DISASSEMBLED IT COMPLETELY, I CHECK THAT THE RAPELAS WERE OK, BUT IT CONTINUES HEATING UP TO THE DEGREE OF THROWING THE ANTIFREEZE OUT OF THE TANK
THE HEATING MUST BE DUE TO A TEMPERATURE SENSOR, OR A COVERED OR OBSTRUCTED HOSE CHECK THE SENSOR THAT IS ORIGINAL
If it is automatic, check the transmission radiator, that may be the problem, if you do not check the antifreeze reservoir, sometimes it may not have a sheet that fits with the cap.
DO YOU HAVE PROBLEMS WITH YOUR CAR? ASK ME, I WILL ANSWER ALL YOUR QUESTIONS

I have a 2003 nissan murano lately the water tank gets hot and the water looks boiling, the radiator is fine what could it be?
Hello. Check your thermostat, it is best to change it and thus avoid higher expenses.
mmmmmm well the answers they give are interesting. And now I tell you this information if your mechanic has already checked the entire cooling system. so that you inspect the other systems, the engine also overheats when, for example: the turbo, or the intake, or the lubrication system is bad. Well, finally, the engine is not only warm because the cooling system is bad, but also because of many other things.
For the person who wrote that water came out of the radiator, it may be that there is air inside, that is why the water pours out, the solution would be to purge the system, all vehicles have an air purge system. Anyway, hopefully it will be of some use to you bye.
Well, if water passes into the oil, it's simple, the gasket may be blown. or else it is that this will hole the oil cooler. Most likely the fault is in the oil cooler. or the cylinder liner is corrugated. the price according to the mechanic who attends you I hope my answer helps you in some way
My car is a 2002 sentra, I know that the thermostat or the sensor that activates the fan ignition is wrong, my problem is that I don't know in which part of the vehicle said sensor is located, does anyone have an idea? I'm about to take it to the workshop but I don't want some mechanic to want to see my face!!
hello, I have a sentra 2002 std, I just changed the radiator and thermostat but a few days ago the car was consuming water from the tank even though the radiator and the tank were full I don't know what is happening to it but the car works very well. the temperature the meter rises quickly to medium temperature and barely turned on in the morning what could it be? It is known that at medium temperature it is normal, but why does it rise so fast?
Like this one, I have a Malibu 79. It was fitted with a 350 8v engine and it has always overheated with the air conditioning. I have changed the radiator blade, distributor, carburetor lamp, spark plug cable, 5lb cap, which he recommends.
hello, well I have a fiat tempra 1.6 and coye I have a problem with overheating we no longer give what it can be, we lowered the camera, we brushed it, we changed the gasket, and we even put the direct electro and even so the car overheats, , we no longer know what to do to get that error if you can help me I would appreciate it..
hello friend a question I have a mitsubishi mf year 1991, and 1 month ago I put a load of gas to make the air conditioning work, later, I noticed on one occasion that there was water under the car. However, he presumed that it was due to the water in the air, however on the night of that day, he went out for a walk and suddenly the car turned off rolling, and took a while to turn on, he assumed that the generator stopped sending, due to the consumption of the air, after a while the car turned on and 50 meters later it was overheating, I turned it off and put water in it, it was completely dry, today when I turn it on with the radiator cap uncovered, it expels the water with a lot force, logical upwards and I have also noticed when the car is turned off and cold, that when smelling through the radiator cap it presents a strong smell of oil, my question is the gasket of the camera burned?. what should I do
I HAVE A CADILLAC 97 STS 8 CYL 4.6 IT WAS HOT, THEY HAVE ALREADY PLUGGED THE RADIATOR, REMOVED THE THERMOSTAT, THEY ADDED THE ANTIFREEZE
AND IT IS STILL HOT, I BOUGHT THE ORIGINAL PLUG AND NOTHING THE MECHANIC CHECKED THE PUMP AND COMMENTED THAT IT IS OK, I DID NOT COMPLETELY DISASSEMBLE IT, I JUST CHECKED THAT THE RAPELAS WERE OK, I JUST CHANGED THE PUMP THE CAR GOT HOT WHEN IT WAS IN LOW AH ARRIVED, THROW AWAY ALL THE ANTIFREEZE WHEN IT PASSES OVER 118 ºC WHEN I AM MOVING, ITS TEMPERATURE VARIES BETWEEN 106 AND 112 ºC IS THIS NORMAL? WHAT ELSE COULD IT BE?
I HOPE YOUR HELP
THANK YOU SO MUCH
my car for festiva of the year 96 leaks oil through the piston packing despite the fact that it has been changed 4 times everything happened since we made a long trip and it was not supplied with water and along the way as it did not have water it began to heat up and throw smoke what should I do to repair it
I HAVE A CADILLAC STS 1995 8CYL 4 6 AND IT GETS TOO HOT THE RADIATOR HAS ALREADY SODIED AND I HAVE CHECKED THE PUMP AND THE THERMOSTAT THEY ARE FINE, THEY MEASURE K IT MAY BE THE SENSOR THEY DON'T KNOW WHERE THE EYEVADO IS WITH MECHANICS CAN YOU TELL ME WHERE IT IS PLEASE OR WHERE ME THEY FIX IT
I have a 98 diesel goal and driving on the road at 120km my temperature rises to more than normal but it stabilizes when I slow down to 100km.
the electro is not because I control it, it turns on and cuts off normally
What could it be?
I have an anecdote in which maybe you can help me I have a 4 galant vr1991, the engine starts badly, with a lot of failure as if it was drowned, after trying a few times it works beautifully, sometimes it stays that way and the car runs very well as it should, other days the engine gets heavy, you know what I mean, it feels weak, but there is current in all the spark plugs and everything is apparently fine, when it presents this fault the car OVERHEATS, this vehicle has 4 electric fans 2 of the air conditioning and 2 of the engine, it does not have a thermostat because in Venezuela that is too much and obstructs the flow of coolant, new radiator, cap, hoses, everything is new...
engine heating due to travel, 3 causes must be checked:
1._The radiator cap may be leaking water pressure
2._The thermostat needs revision or cleaning.
3._Check the fan.
If valve calibration has been carried out, check that it has been done with the calibration in the vehicle's engine manual.
Note: If the valve calibration was performed incorrectly, it is most likely that the above is in good condition.
The bad calibration of valves produces greater effort and overheating of the engine.
hello, well, I have a 1997 chevrolet lumina ltz and I have a problem with the engine overheating and I realize that the second speed of the fans does not work as it turns on and sometimes it does not …… they tell me that it is the valve that turns on the fan but I don't know in which part of the engine this is the valve I would be very grateful for your help happy afternoon from Venezuela
Hello, I have a Kia Rio, it only overheats when I go uphill, it has a new radiator cap, a new fan, a good thermostat and a clean radiator...what could it be that overheating fault...I would be very grateful for your help, thanks...
I have a Hyundai Gasoline, and lately I started to lose power, I drove 20 minutes and I parked, it turned out that the water was boiling and it was leaking through the lid, and it smelled of burning and the whole engine was overheated, what can I do… thank you…………
a ford bronco mod 70 with a 5.0 ho engine, overheats above 210 degrees f. I already checked thermostat, fans, antifreeze, radiator in good condition, I just need to check the time. but I don't know how many degrees it would be left when lighting it.
I have a chevrolet NPR truck and it is normal that when the engine is running it returns the coolant to the jar and at rest it levels off, what should I do, also the vehicle temperature rises and if I work at less than 2000 RPM the temperature levels off. Thank you.
I have a 97 npr izuzu truck and it warms me up, inflates the hoses and returns or blows to the auxiliary water tank, I have doubts if it is the radiator cap
I have a 1998 chverolet blazer, when I start the vehicle I notice how it shakes and when driving, sometimes it loses power and seems to turn off. What will it be? Thank you
Ramon did you find the fault? The same thing happens to me with my 96 blazer
I have a 99 blazer and the same thing happens to me, when I turn it on it warms up and sometimes when I'm driving it and now the check gauges light comes on and the water indicator says it's hot, and although the coolant tank is full, the radiator it looked dry. What can be ?
billy, your Lumina does not have a valve, it has a temperature sensor which tells the computer when it should turn on the fan, possibly it is damaged, or a cable is defective.
you could take it to an electrical technician or a workshop where they can check it more professionally
For you Jose Luis... you already did everything you could for your KIA. The only thing left is the head gasket that shows symptoms of overheating... but before you finish repairing the head of your car, it would be better to check the temperature sensor very well, since in new cars it is the one that serves as a switch to turn on the fans I hope and serve my comment, I am a mechanic and I have 6 years of experience in engine repair
Octavio, I have experience with Cadillac's 4.6 norsthar engines, and if your fans are working as they should be, the only thing left is the gaskets on the cylinder heads or heads are broken, I want to tell you that many of the repairs I have done on those engines They are for that reason. Because the engine is made of aluminum, it is more sensitive to heat and one time it overheats is more than enough to ruin your engine. Repairing it is very expensive, but it is a good job if you only carry it out with qualified personnel.
Luck ………..
I have a 2001 AZTEK that has already had its thermostat changed, the radiator has been washed and antifreeze has been put on it, the temperature sensor has been changed, it has no leaks and the temperature remains the same, reaching 3/4 of the marker to start going down, I always have to be watching the scoreboard so that it doesn't go over there and get damaged. It seems that MILTON from the comments above has the same problem.
Hello friend, I have a Chevrolet NPR truck that has an Isuzu engine, the engine is freshly built and has no power, I changed the pistons, rings and liner, do not touch the injection pump, and adjust the valves to 0,16″ for both the intake as an exhaust, the turbo is rebuilt, what could be the lack of force and what tests can I do to verify
Thank you
They have given me a whopping 4.800 E for a cylinder head change. It is a Chevrolet Lumina car and the car is 18 years old. Please, if someone understands, tell me if it is a normal price or if it has passed 500 towns since I am unemployed.
Hello tony, regarding the problem of your truck, I have the same drama, I'm going to try the injection pump.
greetings.
If you already found a solution or if I found it, this is my email.

my car is a 92 lada samara, the problem is that the car turns on after a few seconds the temperature rises too much and the water pours out of the filler container, I already tried removing the upper radiator hose and no liquid came out, with the engine running what could be the problem the pump or something else
I have a mess I have an automatic 2002 chevrolet zafira I thought it was working at half the temperature it is desil in 90 of the dashboard I burned the cylinder head I repaired it everything was fine and it is heating up again of course the first time I repaired it I did not clean the radiator and the first kiss the water binds me and the oil will be the dirty radiator? When I uncover the water base, I realize that the flow of water is normal, but when I start it up, I pour it out because of the base, who can give me a hand?
but presumably after 25 days you have to give it a retightening, because with the heat the packaging gives of itself and the same thing can happen again, and it is that it vomits it because the compression pressure goes towards the refrigerant ducts, greetings
I drive a luv 2.5 diesel it turns out that 15 days ago it lost power and it gives off too much black smoke I don't know if it needs to be repaired and I also changed the oil and it went down in 8 days 4 quarters how do I know what to do
I have a mitsubishi lancer touring year 2002, 2.0 engine, and it is overheating
It has no leaks in the system, the radiator is clean, the electro fans work well, the radiator cap works well because I tried it with another cap of a vehicle, I use green coolant as well, I would like some guidance on purging the system, how to do it if it is cold or hot and if the vehicle needs to be on, I thank you in advance and I look forward to your response soon.
Hello Cesar, you must fill the radiator when cold, then you warm up the engine and let it cool again, so you make the thermostat open and then fill the radiator again when cold, if that is not the problem, then you must have a bottle of water or green liquid somewhere, it must be very small that you do not notice it, check the unions of the hoses with the radiator and the engine that do not have rust or green stains, where you get that there is a leak, as I told you the leak can be small that only leaks when heating the engine in the form of steam and little by little it empties the system to a level that the car overheats, I recommend that you clean and then do the test to notice the difference, good luck
Hello Andres, I think your problem is with the injection pump, you should take the pump to a test bench so that they can graduate it and change the damage, that is done by a bomber, good luck
Hello Yandi, if the engine is not hot and the water spurts out of the gasket, you have problems with the cylinder head, it could be a burnt gasket, bent cylinder head, or a crack in the cylinder head, if otherwise it spurts out when the engine is hot, it could be due to overheating due to a water leak in the system, check the hoses, the water pump, good luck
HELLO I'm from BOLIVIA SANTA CRUZ DE LA SIERRA, I have a Toyota truck from 1973 and the engine heats up a lot, I've already taken several mechanics and they don't give me a solution.
I put water in the radiator and not coolant because they told me that this truck is not for coolant, IS THAT TRUE?
I have a Chevrolet Optra Limited yesterday when I turned on the car, the air conditioning did not cool well and after 20 minutes I parked because I heard a strange noise and it turned out that the whole engine was overheated, I added refrigerant after cooling it and I was able to drive the car, but then when I took a climb or stopped, it overheated to the point of leaving the coolant and began to lose power and the engine started badly as if it was drowned, but the temperature was low, and I must be adding coolant. Could it be a coolant leak?... Could it be the fan?... Could it be the pump?... Could it be a clogged radiator?... Could the engine have suffered from the first overheating? Help me please!!!
Mr. Carlos, if you read this message, please, what did you do to solve it? I have this same problem, if you are so kind and can guide me, my email is Gestionesca@hotmail.com Thank you
This happens a lot sir. Carlos the optra overheat for anything, many times because the coolant must be put in the measure that the container has, it cannot be missing or exceed the measure, it can also be the radiator cap if it is very used, the oil, if it continues find a good mechanic.
Hi Marcelo, you have to check that the water or coolant is circulating well and that you don't have leaks, if you can add coolant that helps to avoid rusting the circuit, the water contains hardness and with heat it adheres to the walls of the block and makes it difficult to cool down, If it doesn't fail you, you just have overheating, clean the circuit with some liquid that they sell for that, then add refrigerant or water and make sure you don't have leaks, normally you don't have to add water, if you have to add it every day, you have drain
luck
Hello carlos, it could be all that you ask, but we are going to rule it out, if the car when cold does not fail then the engine is not damaged, otherwise you will surely have a deformed camera, if you are adding water all the time you have a leak in the system, you should check where it could be leaking, notice that when it leaks it leaves colored stains according to the coolant and if it is plain water it leaves rust marks, it will surely leak when heating, which is when it generates pressure and empties the system until it is empty or with little water and it overheats you correct it soon

I have a fiat uno year 87 but what happens with it is that it throws the water from where the refrigeration base is "the radiator bubbles, it is new, the only thing that I left from the old radiator was the cover that you tell me it could be
urgent,,,, I have a supercharged pontiac gran prix and they have probed the radiator, I changed the water pump, the thermostat, the sensor and it is still heating up, can someone help me please.
What is the most recommended gasoline to use in a 2000 pontiac grand prix, I have been told that I should use premium gasoline since that way the car will run better, is this true?
Ford Saphiro, overheats going up, fix the electric fan, the fan, the water pump, it doesn't throw water and it still overheats. What's the matter?
Well, in other cases, just reading, I realize that also one of the drawbacks with overheating is that they have already brushed the cylinder head a lot or rectified whatever they want to call that. It is known by looking for the specification of the vehicle and knowing how far it can be rectified for more information 04269028811
For those who have checked all the radiator pumps, etc. and the problem continues, the same thing happened to me too, but if I solved it, they would think I was crazy, but the problem was the oil, I was pouring a very thick and bad oil into it, and the ducts galleries of the engine were very small and the oil took a long time to go through all the parts of the engine after having done maintenance on the radiator having bought its original cap and I did 1000 things I put a finer oil less viscous and of good quality remember that oil also serves as engine coolant because it helps disperse heat for more information 04269028811
waves I have an olds aurora it heats up and a little bit of water passes but the other day I tightened the screws of the spider and much more happened and the water tank smells like gasoline a lot of water passes so the mufflers what will it be? the spider gasket or the head gaskets please help me
Some questions, look, I have a 2006 Chevy, I use a lot of antifreeze but it doesn't leak, other mechanics have already checked it and they say it doesn't have a leak, but I fill the tank 2 or three times a week, what should I do? I don't understand why the mechanics say it doesn't have any nothing else when I turn it on in the mornings I start it up and turn it on but as if it wants to turn off as if the machine doesn't catch up as it's very silly I have to speed it up a bit and it picks up its pace and it's been a while so I'm waiting for one answer thank you very much
the safest thing is that it is the head gasket or cylinder head, it is the same problem that I have with a 94 golf, and it had already happened to me and I changed the head gasket, but I think that after 20 or 25 days it has one of them had to go to get a retightening with the torque and since they didn't tell me to go and not brush the head, I came back with the problem because the gasket was damaged again by not retightening it, another mechanic told me this and now You have to change it again and now if you brush and weld the head, good luck.
I have a 2000 osmobile and I have changed everything and it continues to heat up, it only cools down when I push it hard, the same when parked as when it is running
To greet and congratulate them; but at the same time ask him 2 questions, since I have a Mitsubishi lancer, automatic, from the year 2001:
1. I use the car 2 days a week, because I don't use it much. And, it always consumes almost all the water in its reservoir. But, my radiator cap, it fits everything, but it's missing a little part. Tell me, it can overheat because of that.
2. From 2 months ago when I stopped unexpectedly, sometimes the engine turned off, when I stopped for say a traffic light. Nowadays, it has become a constant. In other words, it has to be accelerated for it to walk, in neutral it turns off.
Thank you very much in advance, I hope you can help me.
regards
I have a 1997 pontiac grand prix, the radiator has already been cleaned, I changed the water pump, the thermostat, the sensor and it continues to heat up, can someone help me please.
Gilberto Gases in the cooling system when you add new water or antifrese, an air bubble remains, some cars have a screw where the thermostat is, that screw is used to remove that air bubble, open it a little bit, unscrew it until the air stops coming out and water comes out I hope it works for you
I have a honda accord model 93, ex, the oil light comes on even with its levels and lubrication, when you run it accelerated to three thousand or more revolutions, after traveling 50 kilometers the engine starts to fail as if it were a fault of current, the temperature rises to 3/4 and the fans cannot bring it down to its normal level.
What would be the problem, cylinder head, gasket, low oil pressure or clogged radiator or bad injectors, thanks for your help.
hello.
I would like you to get me out of a problem. They want to sell me a 2005 suzuki aerio, when the current owner brought it and we opened the hood the engine felt very hot, however the temperature gauge in the cabin indicates normal temperature. It seems strange to me that he wants to sell it with only 6 months of use. Could you tell me why this abnormal temperature may be.
I have a 2001 aztek I already changed the radiator, water pump, thermostat and temperature sensor, the needle almost reaches the red zone, also the scanner indicates that the fans come on when it reaches 107 degrees Celsius and turn off when it reaches 103 degrees Is that your normal temperature? What else can I do to keep it 3/4 below the heating zone?
eha JOSE LUIS I have an aztek, and it still has the same faults as your car, in the urban center it rises and on highways without traffic lights it normalizes, I think it's normal. I leave you my email any comment camacho_mton@hotmail.com
hi i have a lagoon mod. 96 and a few days ago the temperature started to rise, I thought it was the fans because they didn't turn on, but when I stop the car after two minutes the fans turn on by themselves, something that doesn't happen when the engine is running and that's why the temperature rises , if someone can tell me what is happening I would be very grateful, I hope for an answer, thanks
I have a nissan sentra 91, the problem is that the water sounds like it boils (it heats up) but the temperature indicator does not go up, that is, it does not indicate heating, the radiator cap has already been changed, it was probed, the thermostat was changed and does not bring leaks, please help me and answer me as soon as possible!
If you have warmed up before you have internal problems in the engine, that is, the cylinder head and gasket need to be checked...
I brought that problem in a 96 sentra, I changed the thermostat, the radiator cap, etc. I even changed the hoses and it continued to heat up, supposedly the radiator was clean and working normally, even so I decided to change it, I put a new radiator on it and it did not give me a problem again , sometimes you don't necessarily need to leak to not be working correctly.
It is worth mentioning that the car was sold to me cheap because they couldn't find it precisely because it got hot, supposedly the radiator was fine, but it wasn't, I decided to change it and it turned out to be the solution.
I have a 2005 optra, which overheats only on climbs, I would like to know what it could be. I appreciate it.
I have a 1997 oldsmobile aurora and I struggle a lot because it heats up very quickly I can't drive in many places because the temperature rises and they told me it's not the thermostat could you tell me what it is
If the car has a water leak, it tends to overheat. Because of the engine, it is resien.
Hello good afternoon!!
My car is a 2005 corsa, the car, increases the temperature in a period of 5 min of travel at a speed of 40 km x hr, the fan turns on and the battery is consumed. until it no longer starts.
Yesterday I sent it to the mechanic and he closed the thermostat, because according to him, that part only causes problems for the cars. I check where the antifreeze and water go through and he told me it was fine. and to take it to an electrician to check the fan. Since the moment you turn on the car the fan turns on and because of that circumstance it eats the battery.
What diagnosis can you give me?
I'll look forward for your answer.
Hello, good morning, I have a 2008 1.8 limited optra, the vehicle's coolant turned into a pink gel, who has this situation happened to? What should I do?
good morning brother that is because you have a broken speed box cooling filter replace it with another one this is if it is automatic this filter goes in the radiator change it because it will break the box then change the box oil this is my email hermesmarin2010@hotmail.com if you want call me 04149971159
good afternoon Luis, I also have an optra from the same year limit and the same thing happened to me, the coolant turned into a gel, please what did you do because despite having changed everything: thermostat, all hoses, radiator, radiator cap etc, still after If I continuously travel about 80 km, the temperature needle goes up and an ugly smell comes out, and you have to continually replenish the coolant. my email is Gestionesca@hotmail.com
hello friends, urgenteeee, I have a 94 golf and one day it overheated, they already removed the thermostat, I changed the radiator bulb.
NOTES: the fan does work / does not draw water / all the hoses in the system get hot, a sign that the water is flowing well etc etc. I NEED YOUR HELP. THANK YOU
error friend replace the thermostat but do not eliminate it
Luis I'm in the same situation I have a 2008 optra and the same thing happened to me I don't know what to do
Hello, I wanted to ask you a question, I hope you can answer me quickly, my problem arises from a car that I bought a month ago, this is a 1 Chevrolet Astra GLS diesel. The car looks impeccable, in fact it is visible, what happens It just so happens that the car belonged to a friend of my brother-in-law, and when he had it, he overheated his motorcycle on a trip, which he had to bring with a trailer, the guy fixed it and sold it, my question is the following: ho The car is in my name and it's running fine, but I'm afraid it will happen again, so it could happen again. I've heard that diesel cars overheat once and then do it again. Is this true, if so, I already know I'm selling… then a light appeared on the dashboard of an engine with a scratch in the middle, I read somewhere that it has something to do with the injection, could you guide me a bit because that could be it??? Thank you!!!
GOOD NIGHT, I HAVE A MAZDA PROTEGE 92 THE PROBLEM IS THAT I PUT WATER IN BOTH THE TANK AND THE RADIATOR AND I WALK SOMETHING LIKE 15 MILES AND THE TEMPERATURE GOES UP, THE PROBLEM STARTED WHEN THE RADIATOR RUN OUT OF WATER WHY NOT I PULLED FROM THE TANK THAT WAS FILLED WITH WATER AND THE TEMPERATURE GOT UP, THE SMOKE COMES OUT OF THE EXHAUST, THE OIL IS NORMAL AND EVERYTHING IS OK BUT I DON'T KNOW WHAT THE PROBLEM IS, THE MECHANIC SAYS THE HEAD GASKET IS GONE BUT THE RARE THING IS THAT THE OIL IS CLEAR. THANKS FOR YOUR HELP
I have problems with a sentra 91 16 valves, two injectors do not respond, I change it and the fault continues, I even change the position of the two injectors that do work and the fault continues, only those two work
I have a 2001 corsa, the fan does not turn on several times despite the fact that the temperature rises more than 100. I have changed the temperature sensor and the problem continues, when I turn on the air conditioning the two speeds start to work, but also I have the problem that on several occasions when the temperature exceeds 100 the fan does not work. It is also important to note that the hoses through which the coolant circulates inflate too much.
friend, the hoses inflate as a result of overheating. but your problem is the electric fan that is damaged. good luck
What's up gentlemen I just want someone to help me I have a honda integra 98 b18b1 engine it heats up when I go at about 2500 rpm uphill, flat or in another situation it stays in its range, almost half. It does not have a thermostat, the fans work, apparently everything is fine. If anyone can help me, I thank you in advance.
IT MAY BE THAT IT IS NOT AT THE CORRECT TIME, YOU SHOULD HAVE THE POINTS AND DISTRIBUTION CHECKED.

I have a party year 2001 and it overheats me on the way up, the electro fan does not pour water, it turns on well and I already sent it to clean the radiator and it is still overheating what will it be
For all those who question heating details in 4-stroke combustion engines (cars), I give you a tip from a professional technician. First of all, check the correct timing of the timing points in the crankshaft gears and the camshaft(s). since a valve overlap (exact moment in which the change of exhaust and intake valves is carried out in correct operation without crooked valves) are indicative of an excellent normal working system, together with the operation of a good water pump, a good antifreeze and an unobstructed fluid system, hoses, pipes, etc., or a clogged radiator, an excellent thermostat. Check this because a thermostat from Canada is not the same as one from Mexico, due to the temperature, that is, it must be correct and indicated by the engine manufacturer. correct oil because not all oils are designed especially for x motor remember that an oil also has special characteristics
the cooling fan, whether manual or electric, and the engine revolutions when cold or low, should be indicators to follow, ok, good bye
HELLO
FRIENDS ALSO THE ENGINE HEATING CAN BE DUE TO FAILURE IN THE CATALYTIC CONVERTER AND OBSTRUCTION IN THE MUFFLER SINCE WHEN IT COVERS IT ITSELF SPITS A STONE THAT COVERS THE MUFFLER BEFORE THIS THEY CHECKED MY WATER PUMP, RADIATOR, THERMOSTAT, ETC ETC, WHERE I INVESTED $4500 PESOS BECAUSE OF THE CHOICE OF A BAD MECHANIC AND THE FAILURE WAS DETECTED BY THE AGENCY, IT RESULTED IN BEING THE CATALYST IT WAS CLOGGED BY USE AND ITS WARRANTY TERMINATED
I HOPE THIS INFO WILL SERVE YOU GREETINGS
if it can overheat because the gases do not come out completely from the manifold, this happens when it is partially clogged but not completely,
Hi !
I have a 2005 Nissan, B15, inside I get a lot of hot air coming from the engine, is this normal or does it have some device that speeds up engine heating? Does this have anything to do with excessive fuel consumption? Is there a sensor that allows to increase the heating of the engine?

hello I have a grand am 96 and well with the same problem c heats I changed the radiator, hoses the pump will be 2 years old qc I changed the tank full of antifreeze and well I bring the fan with a switch and turn it on when the needle is about to reach the wing half is bad because if I let the persive half get to it because it's already too hot what do I do
I don't know if this is your case, but sometimes it happens that during repairs, particles such as silicone or chips lodge in the ducts, interrupting the flow of water. It's not always the radiator and fan
hello I have a reno 9 and it inflates the water hoses or they suck and have broken and I have purged it but it continues with the same thing that could be oh and I took out the thermostat
The hoses inflate because there is an air leak between the block and the cylinder head, so change the cylinder head gasket, make sure it is well torqued and you will see that this problem disappears, the same thing happened to me with a sentra b13
The air that escapes comes from the compression of the pistons.
That's what I wanted to read boss!!!!!! You're the only one who hit him about the pressure and the thing about him pouring water through the water container and adding pressure! hug.-
Hello, I have a 128 Europe, I made it an engine and checked the cylinder head. All OK.
I have a new original radiator, but the temperature in the summer is at the limit. I want her to be slimmer. WHAT RADIATOR CAN I PLACE THAT IS LARGER AND NOT MAKE SO MANY REFORMS.
THANK YOU
hello, how are you, I have a question about a 2002 nissan sentra, which gets hot; We have already changed the water pump, the radiator, the thermostat and it continues to heat up; and when it heats up we turn on the heater and lower the temperature. What is your opinion on this problem? I await your response, thanks.
brother for the first
Once my 2006 optra overheated, I turned it off and let it cool down for 4 hours without turning it on, I tried to turn it on again and it turned on with failures, until in less than 40 seconds it turned off, I tried to turn it on again and the starter sounded nothing more but it did not turn on as such... could it be that the engine died? I'm pale help me.
the camera gasket burned
check the packaging, maybe water got into the engine, you shouldn't mess around when you overheat the engine, it mixes with the oil and it looks half milky in color, preferable to save it and take it to your mechanic to see the faults, many times it's because You need to lower the cylinder head or cover the holes where the packing coincides, it is a very detailed little job. From time to time the radiator must be maintained, many times it tends to get dirt and scale even more so if you only put water on it, it fills with rust
good afternoon I have a problem with a 2003 fiat that when the engine warms up it turns off and when it comes back on but it does so with faults please whoever can help me with these I appreciate thanks...
good day. I have problems with the engine of a mitsubishi lancer 1.5 year 93 carburetted.
It has a knocking sound after having the camera brushed.
Could it be possible that the valves are hitting the pistons due to the wear of the planing? Can it be placed double packing to further separate the camera from the block?
please help….
correct my friend, you are right.
hello. My Hyundai Elantra 2.0 overheated. I had a dry refrigerant tank. After resting, add coolant. after a while it had oil in the radiator tank and the liquid was consumed quickly. or it could overheat again. What I can do ?
When you reheat it, the cylinder head twisted, surely it was a lot and it broke, that's why oil passes into the water and biceversa, the coolant is consumed because it passes to the pistons and the combustion burns it, what you should do is go to the mechanic to check the cylinder head if it is crooked It is brushed and gaskets are changed and keda ok if it broke it would have to be rerouted but look for the new cylinder head.
IF YOU HAVE OIL IN THE COOLANT TANK OR WATER IN THE ENGINE CRANKCASE, THE HEAD GASKET OR COMBUSTION CHAMBER IS SURELY BURNED, YOU HAVE TO REPLACE IT
Hello, I have a Daf 2700 Ati Truck and when it's cold, before starting, the water rises and throws it away, other times it doesn't depending on whether it takes in air or not. When you start it takes time to take temperature, and when it takes temperature it rises to the top and starts to pour water, the thermostat takes a long time to open, but when it opens you can walk with all the heat that the temperature does not rise. My question is why does it go up and not open at its temperature? And why when you stop it does it keep throwing water? NOTE: I have already changed the original cap and cleaned the radiator. Thanks for the help you can give me. A greeting.
I have a honda civic 94 I already changed the pump, the thermostat, the lid and I put coolant on it, can someone help me, thanks
Good morning, I have a synchronous Mitsubishi Lancer year 1996 and the water container is overheating, what makes me doubt is that the car is not overheating and the cooling system is working well.
I have a crv, it got hot and they repaired the head of the engine but now it wastes engine oil; what should I do?
friend, eddy is the camera that was damaged, you have to send it to be brushed and maintained, that's why the oil is used up, I tell you from experience.
I have a little truck that was overheating, and the water was pouring out of the tank, I changed two nock gaskets, now it doesn't overheat but it loses water from the tank when the engine is stopped
It is the water pump, you should change it, that is why it throws water
I have a volvo s40 and it spends a lot of antifreeze that can be
I have a volvo s40 and it is spending a lot of antifreeze on me and it heats up what could it be
LOOK ROSITA THE SUREEST THING IS THAT YOU ARE MIXING THE REFRIGERANT WITH THE OIL AND IT MUST BE DUE TO A RING THAT IS BROKEN WHAT MODEL IS YOUR CAR I AM AT YOUR ORDER isis08@live.com.mx
False friend, the engine oil or radiator would mix if the coil was damaged. Good luck, Rosita.
first check the entire cooling circuit, then to nitpick and then you should see the cylinder head gasket. good luck with that
I have a 306 Peugeot 97 and the radiator hose came out and I threw away all the water, I put water back on it but I noticed that the electro did not work, it opened burned or something?
Hello, I put a new radiator, a new pump, the fan is connected directly, what else could it be?
I have a hyundai giro 2004, my problem is when I travel from Melgar to Bogota my car overheats, it starts to bubble in the container where the coolant is made. but when I'm in Bogota it works as normal, without overheating, which will be the cause, thanks
good afternoon, I have a 2008 gwperi overheating and I changed the electric fans, but then it began to lose power and did not accelerate, they tell me that it is the gasket of the camera, but I have doubts because it is not mixing oil with water, please guide me
Hello, he asked, I have a 1.6 model 4 goal, I changed the scratcher and when I arrived in San Rafael I raised the temperature, I added water when I lowered it, and I raised the temperature again, I don't know what it is because I bought it because it has that problem because it has the heating?
friend, you have to request which is the coolant for your vehicle and check if there is good circulation of it, you could have a damaged thermostat.
I have a 2010 chevy and it started to heat up and I changed the radiator temperature bulb and the antifreeze tank cap and it's still the same as it could be
Check that the water pump is sending you good water...
hello, I have a suzuki forza 2 which, in my opinion, is heating up more than normal since the pen that indicates the temperature after a few minutes rises to half… I have already cleaned the radiator and changed the thermostat and the fan and pump work normally…. I will be grateful for your help.
I have a 1996 fiat uno, 1300 engine, when I turn the key to turn on the temperature indicator needle it goes to the maximum and when I turn it on it does not stabilize although the car does not reheat I would like to know what it could be
FRIEND YOUR PROBLEM IS THAT THE TACHOMETER IS GOING TO GROUND. CHANGE IT AND DONE. GOOD LUCK.
hello friend, I have a chevrolet blazer dlx 2.2 gasoline, and I have problems with the cooling, first I lost the water pump, I changed it, but a lot of liquid returns to the tank and then it does not return to the radiator, I took out the thermostat so that it would circulate more liquid, but it keeps raising temperature, what can it be?
the temperature capsule is grounded or the temperature cable is sticking somewhere
I have a corsa 1.6 with gasoline and it lacks ration because it could be and the engine is good it doesn't vent at all
I have a honda accord 94 ex. It started to heat up. I changed the radiator. The motors of the fans are 2. The water pump and c. I remove the thermostat. the crankshaft seals so I usually run it with a quart of oil or less because it throws it away they told me that the heating can be due to the fact that the cars when running them without oil also heat up because the parts create friction
This is true since I had never heard of it
The packing of the chambers can cause overheating of the engine?
while 97 gets hot when I accelerate it above 120 km. x hr.
Does anyone know how to bleed the cooling system of a 2008 exhaust?
I have a 2002 mitsubishi that does not turn on in the morning, I changed the battery and alternator, the problem continues
Hi, I had a 128 and it was throwing smoke and a camedo smell from one of the radiator hoses that went to a part of the engine, and I turned it off urgently and then I started it up and it didn't throw any more and I predicted the electric because I thought it was overheated, and then I pushed it to my house, WELL AFTER I GOT IT STARTED AGAIN AND THE ENGINE STARTS BUT WITH THE DONKEY TURNING AND ADJUSTS BUT BUT LATER I STOP STARTING THE DONKEY AND IT TURNS OFF LIKE THE ENGINE DOESN'T TURN, and the only one please turn the engine and start leaving the yave starting because if I stop giving it, it turns off!
I have a 2007 optra, and when it warms up it starts to pour water out of the tank cap that is filled with coolant, the signal needle does not go beyond normal, I would like to know and is it the tank cap or is it something else, why not It is normal that you are always putting refrigerant in it. When it is cold, the water is just barely warm and returns to its level, or when it does the shekels.
It could be the thermostat that stuck and also damaged the antifreeze cap. That happened to a 2007 Malibu that had the antifreeze thrown out and the car overheated.
I have a 2008 SPARK and it overheated once to the point of running out of a drop of coolant, then I filled the vehicle with water to get to my house and then I replaced the water with coolant, now the car if I turn on the A/C and I pass it from 100 KMPH when I slow down it starts to overheat,
friend check the radiator and electros
Hello friend, how are you, what did you do with the car, I have the same car, but it is overheating, I changed the radiator cap and the thermostat and it is still the radiator covered?
I'M SURE I BURNED THE HEAD GASKET, YOU HAVE TO REPLACE IT.
I lose antifreeze, I have looked for leaks and I have not found them, I checked the engine oil for water and it is not contaminated, inside the heating and nothing, the machine is stable, it does not jump and no smoke is expelled from the exhaust white, it's a 2002 silverado pickup
I have a corsa 2 2005 and it overheats and it is difficult to turn on the electric fan that could be
hello I have a for ka 2002 but you know it is very hot and it throws the water what can I do
I have a corsa 1.6 model 2001 and it overheats and the first time the electric fan turned on low at 95 and now it overheats and reaches 105 and the electric fan turns on high
it may be that the valve that activates the electro is damaged, try buying a new one,,, or place the direct electro, if the temperature remains low, place the valve that activates the electro at 95 degrees
I have a nisan sentra year 89 the water boils but the electro does not connect. it does not have a thermostat and the contactor that gives the signal is new, there are no water leaks that could be please help me
IT COULD BE THAT THE VALVE THAT TURNS ON THE ELECTRIC FAN IS FAULTY, YOU HAVE TO REPLACE IT AND IF YOU GET ONE THAT FIRES AT A LESS GRADE IT WOULD BE GOOD, I DID IT TO MY VW GOL.
I have a 2001 shade, three cylinder the timing belt or band broke and I blew five valves (3 intake and 2 exhaust, I changed them and accepted new six valves all 3 and 3 I reassembled the engine and new timing band I synchronized the engine and started it, I felt it overaccelerated and it did not take minimum, I waited for the ECM to send signals again to recover all the factory default values, but the engine began to accelerate and started to accelerate, I tried to place the points different from the distributor and the fault continued , turn off and check the IAC valve, the fault continued but I had to lower the camera again since the engine shook badly and made a strange noise, so I moved the engine manually and decided that piston #3 was stuck before reaching TDC I lowered the chamber and I was surprised that two pieces of the intake valve guide had broken and found themselves between the piston and the chamber. Piston #3 did not explode since the camera's position was the same, what should I do next? to take to rectify the camera?, I must change the connecting rod of piston #3; When assembling should I change the AIC sensor? I appreciate recommendations to reassemble said engine and put it into operation and the possible failures already described above for better help, thanks??????….
Can someone help me about 1 month ago they rectified the engine head of my tsuru, now that I took it for the ringing the mechanic tells me that they did nothing to it because the valves do not fit, and the head on the outside is rusty, I already spoke to him to the mechanic who did the rectification and he tells me that it is rusty in itself. I want to know if after a month the head has rusted and the valves are bad again, what could be the reason? or really they did nothing to him and he just took the money from me CAREFULLY DESPERATE
good morning, excuse me, I have a 2004 pontiac grand am with a 2.2 4-cylinder engine and it had gotten hot and water passed to the heads and they had put an acrylic liquid on it to cover up the leak. I was with it for almost 3 months until it started to get hot again they rectified the heads and put the packaging on it and changed the thermostat but it continues to heat up I wanted to know if someone could give me their opinion on what they think is happening because I think the thermostat will not work
I have a lumina LTZ 98 it does not make the changes it stays in a single speed
Why does the engine of my renaut 12 heat up? It could be due to the advance of the motorcycle or because
HELLO, GOOD NIGHT, REPAIR MY HYUNDIA EXCEL CAR YEAR 1987, CHANGE PISTONS, RINGS, INTAKE AND EXHAUST VALVES, TAKE THE CYLINDER HEAD TO THE GRINDING MACHINE SO THEY CAN PREPARE THE CYLINDER HEAD, WELL EVERYTHING WAS PREPARED, ONCE ALL THIS WAS READY , THE MECHANIC STARTED TO ASSEMBLE TO PLACE NEW RINGS TO THE PISTONS, METALS, ETC, WHEN EVERYTHING WAS READY, WE PUT NEW OIL, LOGICIO GASOLINE, AND WE PUT WATER ON THE RADIATOR TO START, ONCE THE CAR STARTED TO GETTING STARTED HALF AN HOUR AFTER DRIVING, WE REALIZED THAT THE CAR WAS DRIPPING WATER, THAT THE WATER HAD BECOME TOO HOT, AND IT WAS PRACTICALLY HILTING THE WATER, WHAT COULD BE HAPPENING TO SEE IF THEY GIVE ME SOME DATA
It could be a bad tightening of the cylinder head, have the mechanic check it, or it could also be a misplaced hose that is entering air into the system.
luck…
Hello, I have been reading and I observe that cars that have been repaired by mechanics present overheating and I would recommend everyone to have the air conditioning radiator checked, because if that radiator is covered it does not let air pass through the water radiator. I also recommend to the person who made the engine completely new that it may be that the engine was too tight and I would recommend that they change the oil for one that is thinner; such as 15 40 multigrade, and see if it continues to heat. If it heats up, it may be that the torque applied to it was too great for that type of engine. Check torque with vehicle manual. Another thing that may be happening is that the oil pump is not sending enough pressure and that can cause the engine to overheat. Check oil pressure.
I want to tell you that I am driving a 97 blazer, it belongs to a doctor, he had an accident and I changed the pistons, rings, radiator, water turbine, and it took a long time to stop. I wanted to tell you that the car feels as if it were overheating, the temperature reaches halfway but when I turn it off the water in the radiator tank starts to boil I wanted to know what would be the problem if you read this I would like you to tell me this is my email elburry18@hotmail.com I would like you to tell me to tell the boss, well, thanks
HELLO I have a Grand am that has been giving me a lot of trouble and I have already repaired the engine three times and the car is delivered to me working very well but the problem it has is that it heats up from 0 to all that it gives when running, do you think that be it the air conditioning radiator, I already checked the water pump, antifreeze, probe the radiator and the three times that motor has been repaired the car continues to do the same
I have an 87 Hyundai excel, I changed rings, pistons, valves, cylinder head cleaning, almost a semi total repair, at the time the car was assembled with all the new implements, it was supplied with oil, gasoline, I'm for 1 /2 hours and the water in the radiator began to practically boil to a boil, this could be known as to why some data could be passing, I thank you in advance, not all the pieces were changed just in case
If the water in the radiator boils, it's the gaskets.
good afternoon friend I have a 1.8 astra 2002 that lately the temperature rises a lot when it is on and stopped and I accelerate it while stopped and the temperature drops I have already changed the water pump, thermostat, radiator cleaning and hoses, but I have never let it overheat Nor has it run out of coolant. and the fans work perfectly… what could it be??? edgar garces

Hello people: I have a fiat uno model 94 without air, my question is what temperature gauge does it have in the radiator and why can the electro fuse overheat. Could it be that the fucilera is not making good dough?
hello I have a ford focus 1.8 gasoline and the strange thing is that the vehicle does not raise the temperature or overheat but in two months I burst two coolant water tanks, as there is more pressure than adequate, they told me that is why it starts to deform the cylinder head of the ford romcam engine but I am not convinced that it is deformed or that the gasket burns because I have no signal, I just have more pressure than normal and the water bottle bursts, could it be the thermostat? or the radiator is dirty or blocked?
Good morning Ces, that happened to my car and it was that the head was crooked due to overheating. I took it out and took it to be brushed and when I mounted it the problem was solved.
What happens is that when the head is twisted, air is passed into the cooling circuit and since it has nowhere to go, the radiator cap bursts.

hello friend, how can I check if the fan jumps correctly
Hello, I have been reading and I observe that cars that have been repaired by mechanics present overheating and I would recommend everyone to have the air conditioning radiator checked, because if that radiator is covered it does not let air pass through the water radiator. I also recommend to the person who made the engine completely new that it may be that the engine was too tight and I would recommend that they change the oil for one that is thinner; such as 15 40 multigrade, and see if it continues to heat. If it heats up, it may be that the torque applied to it was too great for that type of engine. Check torque with vehicle manual. Another thing that may be happening is that the oil pump is not sending enough pressure and that can cause the engine to overheat. Check oil pressure.
Hello, the electric radiator cooling fan does not turn on, how can I fix it?

Hi, I have a problem. I have a 1997 Honda Accord automatic. The problem is that when the car goes uphill, the engine heats up, then it starts to lose power, and even if I speed it up, the car stops moving. It doesn't have any leaks. to clean the radiator, there I realized that the thermostat is not in place, now I am thinking that they check the water pump, the truth is I do not know what it could be, please I need your help. Thank you for assisting me.

Hello. First of all thank you for your future comments!! I have Honda Civic LX 100000 miles. Two months ago I started having problems with the check engine light. First it was an error in cylinder No. 2 I went to the dealer they fixed it, after 15 days it turned on again and it was an oxygen cable, after two days it turned off when I was on the highway, but after 15 min. turned on again. I took it ninente to the dealer and they didn't find anything, well they thought it was the alternator, but it's new and so is the battery. I checked and it was a power switch. Well, the light came back on, but after 3 days it went out. Today I was driving it and at stop it started to shake very badly. I parked and opened the hood and the engine moved as if it were loose. I turned it off and drove it for a little while and it hasn't done anything… HELP ME DETERMINE WHAT IS GOING ON WITH THIS CAR…..thanks a thousand

I have a Honda Civic 95 car, I bought it a few months ago but I can't use it, it gets too hot
Quickly, they changed the thermostat, the radiator and some fuses and it's still heating up. The fan doesn't work. what can be the problem? I greatly appreciate your help. thank you.
what you should do is do a test check the water if it lacks you fill it up to the measure then you leave it without the radiator of course you do this when the car is cold and then you turn it on and see if the radiator does not bubble upwards yes It doesn't do it, it's fine, you could change the lid that may be expired and you should also check if the electric fan is working properly. you should check if it doesn't have leaks through the hoses if you already changed the thermostat then it could be the water pump.

Hello, I have a problem with my 1996 Cadillac Seville, the engine overheats, I already changed the water pump, the thermostat, the temperature sensor and the radiator has been probed, even so the temperature gauge needle goes to the 3/4 and a little more, the curious thing is that in the morning with the engine cold and the water at its level, just by opening the contact and without starting the engine, the needle moves up to 1/4, I don't know if Simple deduction, when the temperature is at 3/4, I subtract 1/4, which is when it is cold, it would give me that the needle is in the middle and it is working well. I would also like to know what is the minimum and maximum of the temperature sensor for my car. I would appreciate if you help me please.

Hi, I have a 2008 goal. I removed the thermostat because it wouldn't let the water circulate, but now it returns the water to the tank and it starts to reheat the oil. It's fine. I don't know what to do. Can someone help me?
hello, my name is edwin, I have a problem with my car, it is a suzuki fora from the year 1993. the water from the radiator is transferred to the reserve tank, but there is practically no water consumption, it is minimal, but the radiator lowers its level and the in reserve it rises , that is why when it is emptied it overheats a little and the temperature level reaches the center or more , and that was not normal for the car . there is also a little oil consumption but there is no sign of leakage and no smoke
Is it normal for a 4-cylinder Nissan Pikap that runs 90 kilometers to spend half a gallon of antifreeze? It is normal ?
My 2008 optra overheats, all the related parts have been changed and it continues to heat. I have stopped using it, what can I do?
Hello everyone, I have a serious problem in my Renault Laguna 1.8 gasoline from 1997. A few days ago on a trip through I noticed that the temperature was shooting up, the air conditioning was connected due to the heat, when I saw this I removed the air and the needle It went down until it reached the third temperature line, still high, but it went up again very high, in that position it went down a little, it went up, it went down and it went back up, I decided to stop the engine, start it again and it started to mark the temperature well. I was fine for a few days, and suddenly I did the same thing again on the road, I stopped the engine and started again, and once again the temperature returned to its normal state. I took the vehicle to a mechanic, he changed the valve of the electric fan, the vehicle made a trip and it was perfect, and again today it did the same thing to me on the road, again I stopped the engine, I started it and again the temperature put it in its usual place. What could this fault be and if it is serious for the engine, thank you very much greetings to all.
Hi, well, I'll let you guys know. I have a fiat palio diesel mod.1, I did the engine and the cylinder cover. I did the cover thoroughly. I tested hydraulics included, and now the car heats up, it seems like I had a pressure in the water tank, I purge it. A while later, when the electro starts, it doesn't help him to lower the temperature completely, the strangest thing ever, before making the engine, he had temperature problems since the qm can give a hand, I appreciate it….
I have a focus 2000, it throws the water out of the water tank, I already changed the cap 3 times, I changed the thermostat and the fault came back, the water tank has a damaged thread as if they put the cap under pressure , which may be

hello I have a mazda 929 81 automatic it comes with air that I never use I did the entire engine and they changed the gasoline, oil and water pump, all new hoses, the mechanic gave it to me and told me to work it to soften and sai and I did about 10km with heavy traffic and when I had to make an ascent it cost a lot almost that it seems that I had to push it and then as if I had no reaction after about 5km I had no reaction I stopped and I saw that the radiator was boiling, I turned it off, the marker indicated less than 50 degrees and it has a direct fan that when the car starts up it already starts to run and the antifreeze tank is full and it still boiled after 20m I took off the lid and poured distilled water directly into the radiator and lowered the temperature to zero temperature cooled right away and the gauge was at zero, I started it I started it well and went home and when I parked I opened the hood to see if I could hear the water as if it was boiling again when I turned off the engine, the mechanic left me He is thinking a lot and he tells me to put an electro, and other acquaintances say that it is not necessary to spend so much money that it could be the thermostat, the truth is, I don't know what it could be, someone can give me some advice if they give me an answer or an idea, this is my mail dysam2002@hotmail.com

Hello! I have a 2001 Honda Accord Coupe EX-R with a V6 3.0 engine (J30A1) that works fine for me in the city, staying at optimum temperature all the time, however, when I take it out on the highway and bring it to speeds above 230 Km/h or on very steep climbs, the temperature rises almost to the limit (reaching the red line) and I have to turn it off and wait for the temperature to drop with both motor fans on so that it returns to its normal temperature, well if I leave it on, the temperature does not decrease and it only starts to throw the coolant through the recovery tank (even with the motorized fans on). If I work it in the city, or on the highway at speeds below 140 km/h for periods of less than 3 hours, nothing happens, except that I must add 250 ml. of refrigerant per month. I have already replaced the radiator and most of the cooling system hoses (which were dry or swollen), as well as the water pump (which had moderate corrosion) and the radiator cap (which opened the valve less than 8 lbs). I have tested the fan motor relays and they operate correctly; I cleaned the v-tech valve and solenoids and replaced the filter/gasket on it; I checked compression on all 6 pistons and they are within tolerance (120, 115, 120, 120, 120, 115); I ran a diagnostic on the ECU and originally it didn't give me anything, but recently it gives me an intermittent v-tech system fault code. I have found no presence of oil in the cooling system or any contamination in the oil. I am currently using Synthetic 5w30 oil with a filter for synthetic oil. It is worth mentioning that the vehicle since I bought it did not have the thermostat. According to the Honda mechanics manual, it tells me that I have to open the heads and check for signs of corrosion, and if necessary, brush them and repack them. Any suggestion??

Good morning, I have a Toyota car with a gasoline engine 4ae injected 4 x 4, it has been converted to liquefied petroleum gas. A few days ago, my car started leaking water from the auxiliary radiator, so I took it to the workshop and the guides, seats, and valves were rectified. and the cylinder head was also brushed even the cylinder head passed a hydrostatic test as a result the cylinder head had no cracks inside once the engine was assembled we started the engine and when accelerating a little we see that the water is expelled with air bubbles, for please what would be the cause for this to happen since the cylinder head has been repaired and the gasket changed

I have a problem with a BMW z3, from the moment I start it it starts to shoot water through the radiator cap, until it starts to get hot and starts to bubble, then I realize that one of the radiator hoses gets hot and the other doesn't. , so I decided to remove the thermostat, once the thermostat was removed both hoses were already hot, but it is still leaking water, then remove the oil marker to check if there was any trace of water and there was not, it could be a burnt gasket but not from the all? or the thermostat?
I have a 1999 Montero I recently had the radiator and thermostat changed and it got a little hot yesterday. I notice that the fan in front of the radiator spins slowly unless I throttle and then it spins quickly. Could that be the problem?

Hello: I have an American car from 1976, 6 cyl, 4'2 lit, 98 hp, automatic gearbox, I had the constant-running iron fan removed, and I put an electric one with a thermostat, which starts when the water thermometer It shows 90º C, but in the city the electric fan is almost always off, there is a warning light on the light panel, but on the highway, as soon as it reaches 100 km/h, and despite the air from the gear, the electric fan is always on, and the temperature is set to 100º C or even 110º C. The radiator has been cleaned several times, and with the thermostat removed the same thing happens, on the road the fan is always on. Any ideas? Thanks. Hello †

hello I have a peugeot 306 98 I made it a motor but the mechanic did not rectify the lid it raises a lot of temperature and now it has water in the oil what can I do?
Hello. Too bad for your mechanic, the first thing is to change the gasket on the cover, then take the head to a trusted grinder to tell you its status. You will not believe it, but a motor cover a little lower than what the motor requires causes it to overheat. Check the latter, if the motor and cover are not compatible, you will have to change the cover. A good option is also to check the internal coolant lines inside the engine, they could be clogged. Luck.
Good night, listen, why is there a tapping sound in the intake manifold? Well, did I hear it out there with a hose? or if they are aims, because the focus of the oil on the dashboard marks me, but if the oil level is fine, what could it be?

I have a grand vitara xl7 2.7 I recently changed the cylinder head gaskets (left and right) and also rectified the cylinder heads and valves but it is still heated and pouring water from the exhaust pipe
hello.
manual fortnight
I would like to know if before you changed the gaskets you had the problem of overheating,
If your problem is prior to the change, it is possibly due to a coolant leak, a malfunction of the temperature sensor (the fan does not work properly, it does not turn on when it should), it may also be due to a defective or stuck thermostat.
About the fact that water comes out of the exhaust has nothing to do with overheating, if it were a problem about water passing from the engine to the exhaust there would be problems in the engine and it would have several problems, not only heating but loss of power, milky oil (for mixing with water) etcccc,
But it is normal for water to come out of the exhaust because every vehicle has a catalytic converter that reduces the gas emissions emitted by the vehicle, such as carbon monoxide, by converting those gases into water...
