    Summer’s coming, and with that comes plenty of opportunities to hit the open road or to head off the beaten path for some off-road adventures. However, it also introduces increased rates of overheating in vehicles of all shapes and sizes, which could slow you down or even bring you to a complete stop while causing significant damage to crucial parts of your engine. Fortunately, there are a few steps you can take to reduce the likelihood of overheating in your ride so you can enjoy your summer fun without having to cash in those in store coupons for auto parts replacements.

    1. Keep the Heat Out

    The best cure to overheating is a good, strong dose of prevention. There are a few simple steps you can take throughout your everyday schedule to keep your car and your engine much cooler.

    • Park in the shade when possible
    • Use a sun shade when parked
    • Invest in proper window tinting
    • Leave windows slightly cracked to allow heat to escape

    If you don’t have a sun shade or proper window tinting tools, it’s as simple as doing a search for “car pars near me” on your preferred online search engine. The parts themselves are inexpensive and fairly straightforward to use.

    2. Use Your Vents Properly

    Used correctly, vents keep your engine from overheating. Using the floor vents, for example, is much more effective in pushing hot air out of your vehicle. Using the fresh air setting on your AC also helps to recirculate the hot air in your car, cooling it more effectively than just running the cool air setting.

    3. Pay Attention to Your Cooling System

    Engines need coolant to prevent overheating. Make a habit of checking your coolant levels my locating the reservoir under the hood. Adding coolant is as easy as pouring new coolant into this reservoir to the appropriate fill line.  For a more efficient solution, consider using a CoolJet high pressure coolant system. However, note that coolant should never be added to a hot engine. Allow your car to cool first.

    Follow these tips to keep your engine cool this summer so you can enjoy the weather to the fullest. Take advantage of free delivery on auto parts to get the parts you need to keep your car cool and collected.
