On the road with a motorist, anything can happenespecially if its route is several hundred kilometers. It is possible that in the middle of the way the car will fail in the impeller of the fan. This detail, though simple in design, but its failure threatens to boil the car. What measures to take and how to act, if at least 50 kilometers to the nearest service station? Let's see.
What can cause damage?
In fact, the fan impeller itself (WHA iswhether it will be imported Volkswagen or whatever, it cannot be a malfunction in its design, unless it is damaged in advance with a sharp object. And break it down can break the belt drive. Changing the fan blades in any case is useless if they are visually in place. Therefore, in case of similar breakdowns, one should pay attention to other details that are closely interconnected in function.
How not to overheat the engine?
The fan wheel, like the radiator,provides the engine with efficient cooling, so when it fails, the risk of boiling increases tenfold. And in order to avoid such problems with the engine, you need to carefully monitor the temperature of antifreeze. While the car is moving along the road, a stream of cold air is blowing on the surface of the radiator, so you can move when the fan is not working. However, if the temperature of the internal combustion engine gradually increases, you can add a little speed. For safety reasons, you should not play with the speedometer, so the word "little" plays a special role here.
What if the above method does not help?
When the temperature of the motor gradually increases with increasing speed (and this is quite natural), there is only one way out of the situation - a complete stop and cooling of the motor on the side of the road.
How can I fix the damage?
When the nearest service station is about an hour away,Of course, in such conditions, it is unlikely that anyone guarantees you complete protection against motor boiling. The engine can boil every 5 km, so it is best to call a tow truck and drive it to the nearest center. If this is not possible, you can try to fix the damage yourself. To do this, you can take the old camera from any car (even from the truck) and cut out rings of 2 centimeters from it. By installing such a product in place of the belt, you can safely get to the house: the fan impeller will work smoothly. However, this does not mean that such a tool in terms of functions completely replaces the standard part. Replace it as soon as possible with a normal spare part. Domestic manufacturers of fans, impellers and cooling systems have a wide range of products, so you can buy such products in any auto shop.
As you can see, non-working fan impeller -This is not a sentence for the car. There are many ways out of the situation, the main thing here is to prevent the engine from boiling, otherwise you will have to fork out for its repair.
