2. If not, see if there is a professional water tank repair shop near home. If there is, send it to the master of the water tank shop to see if we can clear the warehouse. If you can, then this water tank can be used for a period of time.
Water tank plays an important role in the cooling and heat dissipation of automobile. In the summer of continuous high temperature, car water tanks are particularly prone to some minor faults. Insufficient water level, corrosion and water leakage in the water tank will directly cause "boiling", that is, the temperature of the water tank reaches the boiling point.
At this time, the engine has poor heat dissipation and high temperature, and the expansion of parts will reduce the fit clearance of all parts. On the other hand, when the temperature is too high, the viscosity of oil will decrease. In this case, the wear of all parts will increase. If proper treatment is not carried out immediately, the engine is likely to burn out and lead to serious engine damage accidents.

Matters needing attention in maintenance of small water tank
In order to prevent rust, the water tank is made of aluminum, the pump wheel is made of iron, and the waterway is made of cast iron. If factory antifreeze cannot be used, water tanks, pumps and waterways will be corroded. Once the metal is corroded, it may break from the corroded place, and the corrosion will block the waterway, resulting in high working temperature and poor operation of the engine.
Regular cleaning, due to the long-term use of the vehicle, the radiator of the water tank will enter sand, cordyceps and other sundries, resulting in poor heat dissipation of the water tank, poor work due to high engine temperature and poor fuel economy. It is recommended to clean the sundries on the surface of the heat sink regularly.
Replace antifreeze in time. Replace antifreeze once a year. When it expires or the coolant becomes dirty, it needs to be replaced. When replacing, all the old antifreeze must be put away, and the water tank and cooling system must be cleaned.
Check the water level regularly. We mainly rely on observing the upper scale and the lower scale of the antifreeze kettle, and the water surface can be kept in the middle. Generally, it is best to replace it after driving 20000KM. The water level needs to be checked regularly, and many don't need to be added.
