It can be dangerous to have an engine that is overheating. This problem is often caused by too little coolant. Fortunately, this is a problem that you can easily fix. All you need to do is pour the recommended amount of coolant inside the reservoir. If you are unsure about how much you need to put in, then it is a good idea to use the owner's manual for your vehicle. A leak in the coolant system is another thing that can cause it to overheat.
If you have a coolant leak, then you may notice an orange, green, or blue smell liquid around your vehicle. You may also smell something sweet. Additionally, low oil can cause the engine to overheat. The oil helps control the temperature of the engine by lubricating the inside parts of the engine. Visit our service center today at Green Dodge in Springfield, IL.
