How to deal with the antifreeze boiling

I believe you have also heard of the “boiling up” of a car, that is, when the car is driving, white smoke suddenly appears from the hood. This phenomenon is actually due to the fact that the antifreeze fluid reaches a boiling state under the continuous high temperature operation of the engine, and then it will emit white smoke when it overflows and encounters high-temperature metal. In addition, the viscosity of the oil will also be reduced, which will wear out the engine parts over time, and it may even be scrapped directly. Then, how to deal with the phenomenon of "boiling the pot" if it really occurs, let's discuss it in detail below.

When the car "boiling", it is probably because the antifreeze is insufficient. You should park in a safe place as soon as possible, and let the engine idle for a period of time (the temperature drops), and then you can add the antifreeze to the water tank. If there is really no antifreeze, we can replace it with tap water, and then go to the auto repair shop to replace the original coolant as soon as possible. Of course, it may also be due to the quality of the antifreeze or the boiling point itself. At this time, you need to replace other antifreeze (high boiling point).

Then some friends ask, why can't water be used instead of antifreeze. If it is a short-term emergency use is possible, it will not cause any impact on the device. But it won’t work if it is used for a long time, because long-term accumulation will cause scale to adhere to the surface of the water tank and water jacket, the heat dissipation effect is getting worse and worse, and it is difficult to remove it. If it is in a relatively cold area, it is even more needless to say, because the tap water itself has no anti-freezing effect, and it is easy to cause the water tank to freeze.
