While it may not feel like it, summer is just around the corner. As with every other season, it has its own unique challenges to overcome. This is even true for all you classic car owners. One of the largest issues on those hot days however is overheating. You need to work hard to stop the vehicle from heating up too much, especially when it is in storage.

Vulnerable

It is likely that your vintage car was built before the days of extreme weather testing and electric fans. In some cases, there may have even been a lack of traffic jams during that age. This makes classic cars more vulnerable to overheating. The question here becomes how you can keep everything cool.

Frequent checks

car checksThere are actually many ways to do this. However, the most important is to carry out frequent checks. Vigilance is critical here. You will have to examine the fans, belts, radiators, hoses, and more. Doing so could save you hundreds of pounds.

Your best friend here could be the temperature gauge. What this does is inform you whether your old engine is hotter than it normally is whilst working. The key here is not ignoring the tell-tale cues given by the gauge.

Engines were built to work hot for optimum efficiency. Yet, this is not to the point where they overheat and damage components via coolant loss or overpressure. As a result, you should get into the habit of making necessary checks.
