VAZ 2111 engine overheats at high speeds. Cooling system check


At the first signs of overheating, if the arrow of the temperature gauge has gone into the red zone, but steam does not escape from under the hood, turn on the maximum heating mode of the passenger compartment (see "Automatic heater control system"). This is necessary in order to reduce the temperature of the coolant in the engine cooling system.

Turn on the hazard warning lights, depress the clutch pedal and, using the vehicle's inertia, try to move carefully to the edge of the carriageway and stop as far to the right as possible at the curb, and if possible outside the carriageway. Run the engine at normal idle speed for a couple of minutes with the heater on at full power.

WARNING
Do not stop the engine immediately! The only condition is to maintain the tightness of the cooling system. If the hose bursts or comes off, or if any other leak occurs besides fluid escaping from the expansion tank plug, the engine must be stopped immediately!

After stopping the overheated engine, local overheating of the coolant begins in the places of its contact with the most heat-stressed engine parts and the formation of steam locks. This phenomenon is called heatstroke.

1. Stop the engine.

2. Open the hood and inspect the engine compartment. Determine where the steam is coming from. When inspecting the engine, pay attention to the presence of coolant in the expansion tank, to the intact rubber hoses, radiator, thermostat.

WARNING
Never open the expansion tank cap directly. The liquid in the cooling system is under pressure, when the plug is opened, the pressure will drop sharply, the liquid will boil and its splashes can scald you. If you want to open the expansion tank cap on a hot engine, first put a thick, thick cloth on top and only then carefully unscrew the cap.

USEFUL TIPS
The expansion tank plug valve plays an important role in ensuring optimal temperature conditions. It maintains an overpressure in the system of at least 0.1 MPa (1.1 kgf / cm2). In this case, the boiling point of water rises to 120 ° С, and antifreeze - up to 130 ° С. Unfortunately, when the valve is jammed in the closed position during overheating, a significant excess of excess pressure occurs - more than 0.2 MPa (2 kgf / cm2), which can lead to rupture of the expansion tank or breakdown of one of the hoses.

3. Look under the dashboard from the front passenger side and find out if there are any leaks or traces of coolant flowing from the heater radiator underneath.

If coolant leaks are found, the burst hose can be temporarily repaired with adhesive tape.

HELPFUL ADVICE
Reinforced (usually silver-colored) adhesive tape, which can be obtained from auto dealerships, is especially suitable for this purpose.

The leakage of a radiator, thermostat or heater is quite difficult to eliminate on the spot, therefore, in such a situation, it is necessary to add water to the cooling system and carefully monitor the temperature indicator while driving, periodically restoring the level in the cooling system.

WARNINGS
Long-term use of water instead of antifreeze leads to the formation of scale in the engine cooling system, deterioration of its cooling and, as a result, a reduction in the resource.
Never add cold water to an overheated engine. The engine must cool down with the hood open for at least 30 minutes.

4. The engine may overheat if the thermostat fails, which regulates the flow of fluid in the cooling system through or past the radiator (to speed up the warm-up of a cold engine). To check the thermostat, you need to check the temperature of the hose connecting the thermostat housing to the radiator on a warm engine by touch. If the hose is cold, the thermostat is faulty, there is no circulation through the radiator.

5. Very often the cause of overheating of the engine, the cooling system of which is equipped with an electric fan, is the failure of the fan. Start the engine, monitor the temperature and pay attention to whether the cooling fan turns on when the engine overheats.

6. If the fan does not turn on, the fuse may be blown, the ON relay is faulty, the motor is blown, or the wiring is faulty.

7. Check the integrity of the wiring, the reliability of the connection of the electrical connectors.

8. If the wiring is okay, check the fuse and replace if defective.

9. If the fuse is good, try replacing the fan relay.

11. If the electric motor starts to work, the wiring is faulty; if not, the wiring or the motor itself is also faulty. The relay and the electric motor are not repairable, replace them as an assembly (see section 9 "Electrical equipment").

NOTE
It is allowed to drive to the place of repair with an electric motor connected directly to the battery. On arrival, do not forget to disconnect the electric motor from the battery, otherwise it will lead to battery discharge.

Despite the fact that such a car is characterized by high reliability, after 10 years of service life, individual components begin to malfunction. When the VAZ 2110 injector of 8 valves is heated, the reason lies in the cooling system. The temperature sensor indicates that the engine is overheated.

The main causes of overheating

The classic cooling scheme consists of a large and a small circuit through which the antifreeze circulates. The thermostat performs a regulating function, directing the liquid in the desired circle. It is cooled in a radiator made of aluminum. A fan built into the system turns on when the car is running at low speeds, helping to maintain the required degrees.

When the engine of a VAZ 2110 heats up, the reason lies in the following faults:

  • the thermostat is broken;
  • the fan is out of order;
  • an air lock has formed in the cooling system;
  • insufficient coolant level;
  • boiling antifreeze;
  • dirty engine.

Each of these reasons can become the main reason why the VAZ 2110 engine begins to overheat. As a result, the machine loses power.

Faulty thermostat

If the VAZ 2110 injector of 8 valves is heated, the reason may lie in a faulty thermostat. The node is jammed. As a result, the circulation of the liquid stops at any temperature. Often such a breakdown is caused by the fact that the VAZ 2110 car heats up for a long time at idle. The time of such heating should not exceed 10 minutes. It is allowed to move the car immediately after switching on, provided that the first few kilometers it will be given a gentle mode.


Thermostat: 1-way valve; 2-outlet branch pipe (to the pump); 3-spring of the main valve; 4-main valve; 5-piston holder; 6-piston; 7-entrance part-tubes (from the radiator); 8-rubber insert; 9-solid heat-sensitive filler; 10-spring of the bypass valve; 11-inlet (from engine).

The thermostat can be checked directly on the engine. The order of work is as follows:

  1. The engine starts.
  2. The instrument arrow starts moving up.
  3. The radiator pipes located under the hood, top and bottom, are checked. If the lower one becomes warm before the start of the movement of the instrument arrow, then the thermostat is stuck in the open position. When it is permanently closed, the bottom tube remains cold at any temperature.

You can also check the thermostat with its dismantling and understand why the VAZ 2110 engine is heating up 8 valves . For this, the device is removed from the engine and placed in a container with water. This can be any saucepan that is put on fire. After the liquid boils, the valve should open. If this does not happen, then the node is jammed. It cannot be repaired. Its replacement is required.

If the VAZ 2110 injector of 8 valves is heated, the reason may lie in the idle fan. This is a car unit, whose function is to cool the liquid in the radiator. A signal is sent to turn on the electric motor by a sensor. This happens when the temperature exceeds the permissible threshold.

If the fan is out of order, then the VAZ 2110 car with the injector starts to warm up for the following reasons:

  1. The thermostat valve is stuck. The coolant will constantly circulate only in a small circle, without entering a large one. Antifreeze will stop flowing into the radiator and will not reach the temperature sensor. As a result, the antifreeze will begin to boil.
  2. When the VAZ 2110 engine starts to warm up quickly, the reason may lie in the faulty drive of the fan itself. For testing purposes, it is connected directly to the battery. If it does not turn on, then the drive needs to be repaired.
  3. Before checking the actuator, the fuse must be inspected. Its brand is F-7. The operation of the element is checked with a multimeter. The burned-out part is replaced with a new one.
  4. Fan relay failure. To get to it, you need to remove the center console cover in the mounting compartment. The cooling relay is located on the left edge. It can be checked only by installing a new element. Then the VAZ engine warms up and the new part is monitored.
  5. A break in the wiring will turn off the fan. The break point is found using a tester. A new wire is being laid in this section.

Air lock in the cooling system

When the antifreeze boils in the expansion tank of the VAZ 2110, the reason may be an airlock.


Cooling system of the VAZ-2110 engine (with carburetor): 1 - heater radiator; 2 - heater radiator steam outlet hose; 3 - outlet hose; 4 - supply hose; 5 - coolant temperature sensor (in the block head); 6 - hose of the pump inlet pipe; 7 - thermostat; 8 - filling hose; 9 - plug of the expansion tank; 10 - coolant level indicator sensor; 11 - expansion tank; 12 - outlet pipe; 13 - liquid chamber of the carburetor starting device; 14 - radiator outlet hose; 15 - radiator supply hose; 16 - radiator steam outlet hose; 17- left radiator tank; 18 - sensor for turning on the electric fan; 19 - fan motor; 20 - electric fan impeller; 21 - the right radiator tank; 22 - drain plug; 23 - casing of the electric fan; 24 - toothed belt of the gas distribution mechanism drive; 25 - impeller of the coolant pump; 26 - supply pipe of the coolant pump; 27 - supply hose to the liquid chamber of the carburetor starting device; 28 - outlet hose.

It appears for the following reasons:

  • replacement of the coolant was carried out in violation of technology;
  • in case of engine overheating;
  • when the system is depressurized.

To eliminate the reason due to which the VAZ 2110 engine heats up, you need to remove the plug from the system.

This is done in several ways:

  1. The cover of the expansion tank opens. We are looking for two hoses that lead to the radiator. They are placed at different heights. Sharply pressed on them, in order to remove air. The cover is replaced and the car starts.
  2. The car is installed on a hill. The front of the machine looks up. The steeper the slope, the better. The engine starts and 2-3 minutes. idling. If this does not work, then the procedure is repeated. In this case, several re-gasings should be made. After that, antifreeze is poured to the required level.
  3. The most effective method of removing the plug is to disconnect the fluid return hose. For this, the clamp is loosened and the hose is removed from the fitting. If the liquid does not flow, then the plug is present. After that, antifreeze begins to pour into the tank. This is done until it appears in the hole in the hose. If this does not happen, the engine starts and fluid is expected to appear. As soon as she runs, this indicates the elimination of the airlock.

Insufficient coolant level

The reason why the VAZ 2110 injector of 8 valves is heated is often an insufficient level of antifreeze in the barrel. This happens due to fluid leakage. The reasons lie in the wear of the rubber pipes in the system. Despite the stability of the material, it loses its properties over time. Antifreeze begins to flow through the cracks. A drop in the liquid level causes a rise in temperature. As a result, the antifreeze at the VAZ 2110 boils and splashes out of the expander plug.

Sometimes the problem lies in the tank itself. It is not always manufactured in accordance with the technology. If the walls are thin, then there is a possibility of cracking on the surface. Sometimes the reason lies in a poor-quality traffic jam. Chips on the threaded part create a leaky connection.

Boiling antifreeze

If antifreeze boils in the expansion tank of a VAZ 2110, the reasons may be as follows:

  1. Fluid enters through the head gasket. Traces of antifreeze are clearly visible on the dipstick. There is also a gas smell coming from the expansion tank. An urgent need to change the gasket.
  2. Poor quality antifreeze. Dilution of the concentrate with water should only be done by the manufacturer. Self-addition can lead to incorrect concentration.
  3. Loss of antifreeze properties. This happens after 2 years of operation of antifreeze. It becomes oily, changes color. The fluid must be replaced.

If the VAZ 2110 8-valve injector boils, then the reason is a dirty engine. After a long run, a film of oils forms on the metal. When the car is moving, dust gets under the hood, which together with the oil film forms a dense layer. As a result, blowing air over the engine is ineffective.

To solve this problem: keep the engine clean. All connections are constantly checked and, if necessary, sealed. The radiator is often clogged with dirt, which stops letting air through. At times it needs cleaning.

If the engine in a VAZ car starts to warm up, you should know that there are main causes of the malfunction. With a sharp heating, the thermostat valve may be stuck. When such a problem exists for a long time, the fault must be looked for in the system itself. This may be clogging, the presence of an air lock, or a problem in poor-quality antifreeze.

Engine Flush Tests

Coolant overheat alarm

Most cars are equipped with a temperature sensor that measures the operating temperature of the engine. If the overheating alarm comes on while driving (or the temperature indicator arrow goes into the red danger zone), this means that the coolant temperature is between 120 ° C and 126 ° C. This temperature is still below the boiling point of the coolant (provided that the cooling system and the radiator pressure seal are in good working order). If the coolant overheat signal comes on, do the following:

Step 1. Turn off the interior air conditioner and turn on the interior heater. This will help remove excess heat from the engine faster. Set the fan to maximum speed.

Step 2. If possible, turn off the engine and let it cool down (this may take over an hour).

Step 3. Under no circumstances try to remove the radiator pressure cap until the engine has cooled down.

Step 4. If the overheating alarm is on, you must not continue driving or the engine could be seriously damaged.

Step 5. If the engine does not burn with heat and is clearly not overheated, then it is possible that the problem is related to a malfunction of the temperature sensor or temperature indicator. Then you can continue driving, but for reassurance, you need to stop from time to time to check if there are signs of engine overheating and if there are traces of coolant leakage.

COMMON CAUSES OF ENGINE OVERHEATING

Low coolant level.

Clogged, dirty, or blocked radiator.

Faulty fan drive clutch or faulty electric fan.

Incorrectly set ignition timing.

Low oil level in the engine lubrication system.

Broken fan drive belt.

Defective radiator seal.

Freezing of the coolant (in frosty weather).

Defective cooling water pump

(slippage of the impeller on the inner shaft of the pump).

The owner complained that the engine of his car was overheating, but this only happens when he is driving on the freeway at high speed. The car was equipped with an engine that worked flawlessly when driving in an urban cycle.

The mechanic flushed the cooling system and replaced the radiator sealed plug and water pump, believing that the cause of overheating was a decrease in coolant flow in the cooling system. In the course of further verification, it was revealed that when the engine was cranked with the starter with the spark plugs unscrewed, coolant was sprayed out of one of the cylinders. The problem was resolved after the cylinder head gasket was replaced. Obviously, the leakage caused by a defective gasket was not large enough to cause a malfunction of the engine - as long as the speed and load on the engine did not increase so much that the increase in coolant leakage and heat generation caused by them did not lead to a rapid increase temperature.

The mechanic also replaced the oxygen (0 2) sensor, because the composition of the coolant contains organosilicon compounds and silicates, which, once on this sensor, usually poison it. Deteriorating sensor performance may have contributed to this problem.

Figure: 7.42. In the mid-1980s, many manufacturers began to use multi-ribbed belts (V-ribbed belts instead of transverse teeth). Older water pumps will fit the engine, but they may turn out to rotate in the opposite direction of what they should. This can lead to overheating of the motor after replacing the pump. If you install a fan of the wrong type, then the angle of attack of its blades will not correspond to that required to create the necessary air flow through the radiator

For proper operation of the cooling system, the condition and correct installation of the drive belt is essential. The tension of the drive belt has a decisive influence not only on the operation of the water pump, but also on the alternator, air conditioning compressor and other belt-driven units. When replacing the belt or adjusting its tension, it is imperative to measure the belt tension using a belt tension meter in order to check that it exactly matches the required one.

Engine overheating is not uncommon for a car such as the VAZ 2110. This problem is mainly encountered in cars with high mileage. Although it is not worthwhile to exclude motor overheating in relatively new specimens.

The mileage is often the culprit. As the vehicle is used, the parts wear out, the systems gradually become unusable.

As you know, the VAZ 2110 is equipped with two types of engines - with 8 and 16 valves. There are several main, most common reasons due to which this very overheating of power units occurs.

Let's look at each of the causes and solutions for these problems separately.

Tens engine

Low coolant level

Coolant plays a huge role in the operation of the cooling system. A special substance, namely antifreeze or antifreeze, is poured into the expansion tank.

In a normal situation, the level of the cooling solution should be at the level of the MAX mark on the tank body. This indicates that the container is approximately 50-60 percent full.

If there is no such mark on the tank, be guided by the clamp. The liquid should reach its top edge.

  1. If the engine overheats, just try to top up the missing amount of coolant so that it is at the optimal fill level.
  2. If you have not changed the coolant for a long time, it is better not to add fresh coolant, but simply replace it completely with new coolant.
  3. Choosing between antifreeze and antifreeze, most VAZ 2110 owners prefer the first. And mainly due to the financial availability of antifreeze. But in practice, antifreeze is better... Its one of the most important advantages is that the substance does not freeze in severe frosts. For individual regions of our country, this is a key factor in the choice of coolant.

Thermostat

Another cause of motor overheating is a stuck thermostat valve. If it remains in the closed position and does not open, the coolant will only move along a small circuit. As a result, this will lead to strong heating of the power plant. Overheating itself threatens very, very serious consequences.

Such a malfunction can manifest itself at the most inopportune moment - on the way. You are unlikely to be able to carry out high-quality repairs on the side of the road.... But you can try one method - knock on the thermostat housing. Often this allows the device to return to its working capacity for a while. This will help you get to your own garage or the nearest service station. There, the thermostat is already being replaced with a new one. It makes no sense to repair it. If he failed once, the situation will certainly repeat itself soon.

Thermostat in the engine

temperature sensor

A temperature sensor is required in order to react to changes in motor heating... When the set point is reached, the sensor is triggered and turns on the cooling fan.

In the event of a malfunction of this device, the power unit overheats because the fan is not activated. Consequently, the temperature does not drop below critical levels, but continues to rise gradually.

If you find such a nuisance on the way ( most often, the motor overheats when in traffic jams, since the engine is running, and there is no cooling air flow), try to quickly get out of the traffic jam, find a free section of the road.

Accelerate on a free stretch and then start braking with the engine. So the temperature will drop, overheating will not occur. Under no circumstances should the car be regularly operated in this way. But this is a great way to get to a garage or car service, determine the cause of a sensor malfunction, and then replace it.

Cooling Fan

The symptomatology of fan malfunctions is similar to that of a non-working temperature sensor. That is, the engine will warm up, the pointer on the dashboard will be in the red zone.

Again, on the way, we recommend using the engine braking method. Next, head to the garage. Let the machine cool down. In the meantime, go to the store for a new fan. This device for the VAZ 2110 costs about 600 rubles.

Fan problems

Other reasons

There are other equally popular reasons for engine overheating. Therefore, we suggest that you familiarize yourself with all of them according to our table.

Coolant level too low

Top up coolant to the required level, focusing on the risks or the clamp on the expansion tank

Clogged or blocked radiator

Flush the radiator. If this does not help, the unit must be replaced

The cooling system pump is out of order (the impeller slips on its inner shaft)

It is best to replace the pump

Oil level in the lubrication system is critical

Add oil to the required level. If old, change oil

Incorrectly set ignition timing

Perform torque adjustment

Thermostat is out of order

Replace the device with a similar new one

The cooling fan motor is out of order

It is subject to repair, but it is better to install a new motor

Faced with such a phenomenon as engine overheating, do not rush to send your VAZ 2110 to a car service for repair. You can find many reasons for overheating with your own hands, and also cope with them yourself. Service station services are not cheap these days, unfortunately.

Everything is clear here, either there is or not, if not, or in few shares.

On a hot engine, touch the radiator temperature with your hand, if the thermostat is cold, change it. If it's hot, touch the inlet and outlet hoses and shake them like a pear.

In the expansion tank there is a thin hose, when you press the gas, antifreeze should pour out of it (quite abundantly) into the tank, if this does not happen with a pump for replacement.

ZY First of all, change the temperature sensors (there are 2 of them), you will change them, buy in Cars on Ostrovsky in the "imported spare parts on our brand" department. I had such a buggy one of the sensors.

So in my opinion it works for you correctly !!!

You can also see what color you have antifreeze, if there is a lot of rust in it, then you need to rinse it, otherwise there will be problems, it may already be !!!

There are special means for flushing the cooling system.

If necessary, I will explain. Write in a personal!

The car is 5 years old, everything was OK and suddenly it began to overheat. It comes to the point that the food is 90-100 and the temperature is about 110 degrees and the fan is working.

after the thermostat all pipes are hot.

Change the thermostat anyway?

Post has been edited miracle: 17.05.2007 - 11:15

Yes, change. He jammed in a half-open state. There is simply not enough circulation through the radiator.

Everything will pour out from the head.

The pump pumps (antifreeze comes from the steam pipes)

And maybe someone else has a picture of the thermostat assembly 21082-1306010

Change the coolant at the same time

If there is an injector, then the hardware can be used to lower the temperature on the vent.

Up to 95 degrees, the branch pipe G is hot. X-cold. All other pipes are hot. After 95 degrees, X becomes hot too.

How did you determine at what temperature the thermostat valve opens? The murzilka says that the valve should open at a coolant temperature within 87-92 degrees. Therefore, in this case, it depends on the accuracy of your measurements whether it is necessary to dig the thermostat further, or whether it is in order.

  • Introduction

    INTRODUCTION

    In 1996, the production of a new family of front-wheel drive vehicles VAZ-2110 began. It is noteworthy that this is the only family of VAZ cars that did not receive a name, and therefore is sold under a factory index (even for the foreign market, the model is simply called LADA 110). The family includes modifications in the sedan body (VAZ-2110, LADA 110), station wagon (VAZ-2111, LADA 111) and hatchback (five-door - VAZ-2112, LADA 112; or three-door - BA3-21123). In addition, there are various small-scale versions, for example, an elongated VAZ-21108 "Premier" or a VAZ-21104M - a sedan with different fenders, hood, bumpers, original door upholstery.
    The new family was distinguished by good aerodynamics, original exterior and interior design. For the manufacture of body parts that are most susceptible to corrosion, galvanized metal is used, and fixed glass (windshield, rear and side) are glued into the body.
    Even in sedans, the luggage compartment is very spacious for its class, and hatchbacks and station wagons, in which the backs of the rear seats can be folded, can even serve to transport rather bulky goods, for example, a refrigerator.
    Initially, only short-stroke carburetor 1.5-liter engines VAZ21083 with a capacity of 69 hp were installed on the "Ten". with., however, pretty soon this power unit gave way to a new generation of engines with distributed fuel injection and electronic control. New engines with a volume of 1.5 and 1.6 liters can have both two and four valves per cylinder, which affects their traction and economical qualities.
    This manual deals with the sixteen-valve VAZ-2112 (1.5L) and VAZ-21124 (1.6L) engines currently installed on all models of the family with electronic control Bosch, January or GM, but the description given is also fully applicable for the repair of previously installed eight-valve engines.
    All engines are aggregated with five-speed manual transmissions.
    In the basic configuration, cars of the "tenth" family can boast of a tweed interior, immobilizer, central locking, power windows for front doors and athermal glass. More expensive trim levels are equipped with heated front seats, fog lights, an on-board computer, velor interior (which other dealers call velvet) and alloy wheels. The list of equipment that can be installed on request is completely unlimited: a set of plastic body kits, chrome door handles, a modified instrument panel, air conditioning, etc.
    The "top ten" has long been not a novelty, but acceptable maintainability, as well as low prices and availability of spare parts, still make this car one of the most popular among buyers. Even after the production of the “tenth” family at the AVTOVAZ plant in Togliatti was discontinued in 2007, the production of models resumed in Ukraine at the automobile plant of the Bogdan corporation.
    Like the VAZ, the Bogdan 2110 is well suited for long-distance travel on domestic roads - this is facilitated by good dynamic performance, comfortable suspension and low fuel consumption.

    The factory warranty for cars of the "tenth" family is 35 thousand km or 2 years, whichever comes first. Many official dealers also give their own, longer, warranty, while reducing the service run by one and a half to two times.
    This manual contains recommendations for the repair and operation of VAZ / Bogdan 2110/2111/2112 cars with injection eight- or sixteen-valve engines of 1.5 and 1.6 liters.
    Note
    Fuel consumption figures are for reference only and are averaged over different body types.
    The recommendations of the manual can also be used to repair eight-valve engines.

    2. Engine overheating

    As a rule, under normal operating conditions of the car, the pointer of the coolant temperature gauge is constantly in the middle zone of the scale. The engine temperature may increase when the vehicle is driven uphill for a long time, especially in hot weather. If the arrow of the coolant temperature gauge is in the critical zone, then it is necessary to find out the cause of the engine overheating.

    ATTENTION
    Continuing to drive the vehicle with the coolant temperature gauge pointer is in the critical area, the engine could be seriously damaged and damaged.

    ATTENTION
    Steam and splashes of boiling coolant escaping under pressure from the radiator cap of an overheated engine can cause severe burns. Do not raise the hood if steam is coming out from under it.

    1. Turn on the hazard warning lights and, depressing the clutch pedal, steer the car to the side of the road, then stop in a safe place. Place the gear lever in neutral and apply the parking brake. Switch off all auxiliary electrical equipment.
    2. If the arrow of the temperature gauge is in the critical zone, but steam is not coming out from under the hood, open the air flow control damper completely and set the heater to maximum. Let the engine idle for a few minutes. Observe the behavior of the coolant temperature gauge pointer. If the overheating was caused by an increased load on the engine (for example, during a long steep climb on a hot day), then the engine temperature should begin to drop almost immediately. In this case, it is necessary to cool the engine at idle speed. After the engine temperature has returned to normal, when the temperature gauge needle returns to the middle zone of the scale, you can continue driving.
    ATTENTION
    If steam does not come out from under the hood, and hot coolant does not flow onto the road, do not stop the engine immediately.

    3. If steam comes out from under the hood or if hot coolant flows onto the road - this is a sign of a leakage of the cooling system, for example, due to a burst or jumped off a hose. Stop the engine immediately. It should be noted that an overheated engine often cannot stop immediately after turning off the ignition, continuing to work due to the so-called pseudo-hot ignition. In order to forcibly stop the engine, it is necessary to smoothly depress the accelerator pedal to the stop, or by engaging any gear with the clutch depressed, press the brake and release the clutch.
    4. Wait for the cessation of vapor emissions or fluid leakage, and then open the hood.
    5. Check that there are no obvious reasons for the loss of coolant, such as cracks in the walls of the hoses or leaking pipe connections. Since all parts of the engine and cooling system are hot, care must be taken not to burn yourself. If you find a coolant leak, you must repair the problem and restore the tightness of the cooling system before continuing to drive the car. A broken hose can be temporarily repaired with duct tape. Damage to the radiator, thermostat or heater is rather difficult to repair on the spot, therefore, in order to get to the nearest service station, it is recommended to add water to the cooling system and, while driving, carefully monitor the temperature gauge, stopping periodically in order to allow the engine to cool down and restore liquid level in the cooling system.
    ATTENTION
    Do not add cold water to a hot engine as this may damage it. Allow the engine to cool completely with the hood open for at least half an hour.
    Do not run the engine for a long time using pure water instead of coolant (a mixture of antifreeze and distilled water), as this will lead to the formation of scale in the cooling system, as a result of which its cooling capacity will decrease and the engine life will be reduced.

    6. A defective thermostat may be the cause of engine overheating. To check it, it is necessary on a still hot engine to carefully check the temperature of the upper and lower radiator hoses by touch. If the lower hose is cold, the thermostat is defective, as a result of which the coolant cannot circulate through the radiator. In this case, let the engine cool down completely, and then continue driving to the nearest service station, carefully monitoring the temperature gauge and stopping periodically to allow the engine to cool down.
    7. If the thermostat is normal, and the engine is still warm, you must turn on the ignition and make sure that the radiator fan rotates. Check the serviceability of the radiator fan activation sensor. To do this, disconnect the connector from the sensor mounted on the thermostat housing and connect the connector leads together, then turn on the ignition.
    8. If the fan does not turn on after closing the terminals, the cause of the malfunction may be a blown fuse, a broken relay, or a burned out electric motor. Check the condition of the relevant fuse (see section “Fuses” later in this chapter) and, if necessary, replace it with a new one of the correct rating.
    9. To check the performance of the fan motor, you need to use two additional wires, which must be connected first to the connector of the electric motor, and then directly to the terminals of the battery, observing the polarity. If the electric motor starts working, it is necessary to check the wiring and the relay for turning on the radiator fan using additional equipment.
    ATTENTION
    The wires must be insulated and securely fastened. Do not allow shorting of wires to each other!

    10. If no coolant leaks were found, check the level in the coolant expansion tank.
    ATTENTION
    The expansion tank cap should never be opened until the engine has cooled down completely. Since the hot fluid is under pressure at this moment, it may splash out or steam under pressure escaping from the plug, which can cause serious burns.

    11. If the expansion tank is empty, it may be necessary to add coolant. Wear protective gloves or cover the lid with a large piece of thick cloth. Carefully turn the cover counterclockwise until you feel it stop. When turning the cover, do not press down on it. After the pressure in the cooling system equals atmospheric pressure, turn the cover counterclockwise additionally. Remove the cover.
    12.Add coolant. As mentioned above, if there is no recommended brand of coolant, clean water can be added to the radiator. As soon as possible, completely drain the water-diluted coolant from the engine cooling system and replace it with the recommended brand of conditioner.
    13. Close the cover tightly. Start the engine and observe the behavior of the arrow on the coolant temperature gauge. If the needle rises again to the red zone, the engine needs repair. Have the vehicle towed to a service station.
    14. If the engine temperature is normal, it is necessary to check the coolant level in the expansion tank. If necessary, add coolant to the tank and bring its level to the “MAX” mark. Then close the expansion tank cap tightly.
