How to check our car engine?
1. Prevention of engine overheating
The ambient temperature is high, and the engine is prone to overheating. The inspection and maintenance of the engine cooling system should be strengthened, and the scale
in the water tank and water jacket and the sundries embedded between the radiator chips should be removed in time; the working performance of the thermostat, water pump,
and fan should be checked carefully, and the damaged should be repaired in time, and at the same time Pay attention to adjust the tension of the fan belt; add cooling water in time.
2. Engine oil inspection
Engine oil can play a role in lubrication, cooling, sealing, etc. Before checking the oil, the vehicle should be parked on a smooth road, and the vehicle should be stopped
for more than 10 minutes before the inspection, and the vehicle should be warmed up overnight before the inspection is accurate.To detect the oil level of the engine,first
wipe the dipstick clean and insert it back, and then the oil level can be accurately measured after inserting it to the end.Generally, there will be a scale prompt at the
end of the dipstick, which has an upper limit and a lower limit respectively.It is normal if it is between.To determine whether the engine oil has deteriorated, you need
to use a piece of white paperand drop the engine oil on it to observe the cleanliness. If there are metal impurities, dark color, and pungent odor,it means that it needs
to be replaced.
3. Brake fluid inspection
Brake fluid is what we commonly call brake fluid, which provides energy transfer, heat dissipation, corrosion and rust prevention and lubrication for the braking system.
In fact the replacement cycle of brake fluid is relatively long. Usually, you only need to check whether the fluid level is at the normal position (that is, the position
between the upper limit and the lower limit).
