Engine works at optimum temperature (about 93 degrees Celsius). If the machine works at a low temperature will result in: rapid engine components damaged, detonation, create pollution and wastes fuel.
Due to incomplete combustion in addition to the right temperature, as well as gasoline and air mixture is correct (water-fuel ratio). Ideal AFR: 14.7.
Thermostat for temperature control is often blamed by the owner of the vehicle when the engine over-heating occurs. Worse yet there are some workshops that suggested that the thermostat off course, with the reason hot climate here.
Revoke Thermostat is the wrong action.
Because the machine will be a long reach working temperature, and even will never reach the ideal temperature. Mesinpun temperature becomes unstable. When down the hill or in a high-speed engine temperatures become colder. In cold conditions it can not be perfect combustion / frugal.
Cooling system vehicle maintenance tips :
1. Replace coolant regularly. The quality and type of coolant is very influential on the machine age.
2. Avoid the use of well water or tap water to fill the radiator. Use mixed coolant aquadest as inhibitors (preventing rust and crust). Aquadest usage alone is not enough to prevent rust.
3. Use a good quality coolant and use the recommended.
4. Replace the radiator cap is about 4 - 5 years. Poor conditions lead to the lid can not take off the excess pressure that will damage the cylinder head gasket and the head of the radiator.
5. Replace the thermostat every 5 years.
6. Check the performance of motor vans or Visco van.
7. Replace water pump in the event of leakage or weak water flow.
8. If the radiator is cracked plastic fuel to replace the original. Do not change the type of brass because if there is over-pressure, other engine components are broken or cracked.
