If water pipes (especially the joints between water pipes) are found to be leaking, it means that the high water temperature may be caused by water leakage. If the water temperature is too high due to water leakage, if the water leakage is not serious, there is still a lot of coolant in the water tank. If there is a spare coolant, it can be added in time.
If not, you can also use pure water for temporary emergency and drive to the nearest repair shop for inspection as soon as possible. In the meantime, you must always pay attention to the water temperature. When the water temperature rises, add coolant to the side and wait for the water temperature to drop.
If the inspection finds that the water pipe or water tank is broken, the method just mentioned is useless, but it will make the coolant lose more and the water temperature rise faster. In this case, it is recommended to stop immediately and call for rescue.
Extended data:
The influence of high water temperature on the engine is as follows
1, the expansion of engine parts will reduce the gap between parts and aggravate engine wear.
2. Reduce the viscosity of engine oil, which will increase the wear of all parts and reduce the life of the engine.
3. Damage to the cylinder gasket may cause the mutual flow of water, oil and gas paths on the cylinder gasket, with oil flowing into the water tank and water flowing into the engine oil.
