GENERAL INFORMATION

Overheat of cooling liquid:

  – insufficient level of liquid in the cooling system;
  – pro-slipping of a driving maple belt;
  – internal cavities of a radiator are clogged;
  – violation of integrity of hoses of the cooling system;
  – the thermostat does not work;
  – the ignition advancing corner is incorrectly established;
  – incomplete running in of the engine;
  – the system of release is partially blocked;
  – ignition advancings;
  – incomplete running in of the engine;
  – the system of release is partially blocked;
  – too low level of engine oil;
  – jamming of brakes.

The engine does not get warm:

  – the thermostat is faulty.

Loss of cooling liquid:

  – hoses of cooling liquid are not rather fixed by collars;
  – cracking of hoses;
  – the radiator is not tight;
  – the cover of a broad tank is not tight;
  – laying of a head of the block of cylinders is punched;
  – there are cracks on the block of cylinders or a head.
