Practical Ways for Caring Motorcycles Machines
Every motorcycle users would expect to drive it for the long term. For that motorcycle owners should pay attention to engine maintenance due to the condition of the motorcycle engine depends on the maintenance and driving habits of its owner within.
Here are some tips:
1. Signs of damage
Normally each crash there will be signs in advance except in case of deviant cases, such as an accident. Then see if the symptoms are not normal. This attitude will help and make it easy to detect more early damage.
2. Observe damage
If there is damage to the machine then the improvement should not be delayed much longer. But remember, if you do not have the skills, do not occasionally dismantle and repair alone. In addition to just waste time and energy, the damage may be worse. Better you take it to a repair shop immediately.
3. Streak damage
If your motorcycle hit a row of symptoms and more than one cause, then check the parts that are easily accomplished beforehand and then one by one into the other parts.
How to Replacing the Radiator Water
If the engine of your car gets hot drastically, it’s time you check the condition of the car radiator water. Therefore, the reduced water in the radiator can be caused by evaporation and leakage.
Evaporation is a common thing to happen. However, if the water radiator decreases rapidly and the temperature increased sharply in a short time, the possibility of a leak in your car radiator. Therefore, care radiator should be noticed.
Radiator is a component that functions as a regulator of engine temperature. In it, there is water to the radiator (water cooling system) that served to cool the machine. To prevent corrosion, water radiator must be replaced periodically. Leaks in the system occur when radiator water inhaled into the combustion chamber or into the lubrication system.
It is better to fill the radiator with pure water “H2O”. The pure water “H2O” can be found in the garage and automotive shop. The characteristics of pure water is a blue lid with the statement “could be used for water radiator”
In emergency conditions, with the conditions of heat engines, you can check and add water to the radiator in the following way:
- Stop your vehicle in a safe place
- Let the machine be turned on
- Open the engine cover
- Take a cloth or rag and lightly mist with water, then turn the radiator cap slowly to the hot air in the radiator drain out.
- Let the water out of the radiator pressure to halt.
- Open the radiator cap
- Add water into the radiator until full
- Hit the gas pedal
- Add the water back into the radiator
- Close the radiator
- The car was ready for use again
It is important to note:
“Do not add water to the radiator when the engine hot and of”
Because most likely you will be exposed to bursts of hot water that comes out of the hole when the water filled radiators. The skin may blister if exposed to splashes of water to the radiator. This happens because the water pressure inside the radiator is greater than air pressure outside of the radiator, until the water will spray out.
Benefits of Heat Engineering
Before driving a car, the engine should be heated first. Heat up the car engine is not too long, just 2-3 minutes or no more than 5 minutes is enough. Usually the temperature is quite marked with a needle that indicates the position.
But importantly, many of the benefits obtained by heating the engine regularly. Heats the engine had to be done every day, even though the car is not running. Understanding of heat engines is not just making the engine gets hot, but does to the vehicle engine lubrication oil.
Benefits of Heat Engine:
- Prevents wear and tear. If the machine does not operate in a long time, usually oil in oil pan. That is why the warming in turn helps prevent engine wear. For the heating, you are giving a chance to move oil from the oil pan and go back to the machine that needs to be lubricated.
- Reduce Leakage Compression. There are parts of the engine components that are at high temperatures, there are certain parts that are not made precise. The designers intentionally create a gap. And this gap will be reduced automatically (to be precise) when the components are exposed to high temperatures (expand). This will then reduce the leakage of compression. Because if compression leakage occurs, the pressure on the engine decreases. As a result, the temperature of the engine is not capable of burning fuel and air mixture to perfection. The effect produced energy is not optimal.
- Create the Perfect Combustion Process. Incomplete combustion engine power not only results in less than optimal. But it also makes the machine more wasteful of fuel. This is because the condition of the engine is still cold, so the fuel supply should be larger in order to remain complete combustion occurs.
- In addition, heating can prevent damage from rust if not used in quite a long time.
