REASONS FOR HEATING.
Broadly speaking, there are four main causes of overheating. The engine may generate too much heat, due to defects jn carburetion or ignition. The engine may be overloaded, due to friction in the chassis parts, a>id the overloaded engine then may develop, through no fault of its own, more heat than the cooling system can dispose of readily. The third fault may be due to the cooling system itself, which may not radiate heat fast enough, due- to the water not circulating through the cooling system, or to the air not flowing througl tho radiator fast enough to properly cool the water passages and the water within them. The fourth and last general cause, poor driving, includes the mane? in which the car is handled, as well as the other faults in a general way.
