Although your vintage vehicle's cooling system may not be the most exciting component of your car, it plays a crucial part in running right. Overheating your engine can be a hassle at best and a disaster at worst. A seriously overheated engine may sustain major damage that requires rebuilding or a brand-new replacement. And that ain't cool.
Vintage vehicles can be especially prone to overheating as their components wear and age. So it's smart to prevent problems before they arise.
That means keeping a steady eye on the temperature gauge. If and when the needle hits the red zone, pull over as quickly as possible when it's safe to do so and shut the engine down.
Even better, you can keep up on engine cooling maintenance and repairs to avoid frustrating and even dangerous overheating problems in the first place.
