There are a few safety precautions that need to be followed when checking the lubrication and cooling systems in an engine
1. The engine should be cold before you start. 2. The cap on the top of almost every car or truck radiator (or on the separate coolant reservoir) is designed for safety first letting any built- up pressure escape slowly before the cap is completely removed. 3. Dont touch the oil because it maybe hot. 4. Wear gloves or use a rag. 5. Wear safety glasses. Can anyone give me another?
Does anyone know the importance of lubrication and cooling systems in an engine? The lubrication and cooling system of an internal- combustion engine is very important. If the lubricating system should fail, not only will the engine stop, but many of the parts are likely to be damage beyond repair. Coolant protects your engine from freezing or overheating.
In a liquid cooled system, heat is carried away by the use of a heat absorbing coolant that circulates through the engine, especially around the combustion chamber in the cylinder head area of the engine block. The coolant is pumped through the engine, then after absorbing the heat of combustion is circulated to the radiator where the heat is transferred to the atmosphere. The cooled liquid is then transferred back into the engine to repeat the process.
Engine Failures
Does anyone know the how many engine failures are attributed to cooling system failure? -Over 50% of engine failures can be attributed to cooling system failure.
