When replacing antifreeze on VAZ 2110, you must adhere to several rules. The engine must be cold, antifreeze - toxic fluid, when working with it, it is necessary to avoid entering the eye, oral cavity and long-term contact with the skin.
Antifreeze, coolant (Tosol) - special composition of automotive fluid based on ethylene glycol. Used in the cooling system of the internal combustion engine (DVS) for operation at low ambient temperature. The grounds for the replacement of antifreeze may be several:
- mileage car, 75,000 - 100,000 km. mileage;
- the time interval is 3 - 5 years old (it is recommended every year before the start of the winter season, check the condition of the liquid in the service station by a special device);
- replacing one of the knots of the cooling system, water pump, nozzles, radiator, stoves, etc., with such replacements antifreeze still merges from the cooling system and makes sense to pour a new one.
Operating procedure
Drain of old oh
If the replacement is made on the lift or the observation pit, you must remove the engine protection if it is. When replacing without a pit, you can not remove protection, but then the old antifreeze will hit. There is nothing dangerous in this, but a few days after the replacement it is possible to appear the smell of antifreeze until it evaporates. We substitute the container to drain under the right lower side of the radiator if the conditions allow.
If you do not change in an equipped place and old antifreeze you do not need, you can merge just to the ground. Many are initially opened to open the lid of the expansion tank, then unscrew the cork at the bottom of the radiator for the drain, but in such cases the old antifreeze under high pressure, especially if the engine is not fully cooled, is composed of radiator. More safely and conveniently unscrew the tube (plastic lamb) of the radiator, the old antifreeze will flow with a thin weaving, then carefully unscrew the lid of the expansion tank, thus, due to the tightness in the cooling system, you can adjust the antifreeze drain pressure.
After draining antifreeze from the radiator, we need to drain the liquid from the engine cylinder block. The antifreeze feature of the antifreeze on the VAZ 2110 from the cylinder block is that the plug on the block closes the ignition coil (on the 16-valve injection engine). To do this, we need to dismantle it, we unscrew the bottom bolt of the coil bracket, the key to 13, we unscrew the side and central bracket mounting bolt and move the coil to the side. The key to 13 we unscrew the plum plug from the cylinder block. For more complete removal of old antifreeze, you can connect the air compressor and supply air pressure through the plug-in the expansion tank.
We spin the cylinder block plug and the plug on the radiator (the plug on the plastic radiator with the rubber gasket is delayed by hand without too much effort, for reliability you can wash the cork threads with a sealant). We put back the ignition coil.
Bay of New Oh.
Before the bay of the new antifreeze on the VAZ 2110, it is necessary to disconnect the heating hose to the throttle valve (for the injection motor), or the hose from the heating fitting of the carburetor (on the carburetor engine), so that the excess air is out of the cooling system. We pour a new antifreeze to the top of the upper part of the expansion tank rubber belt. Connect the hoses to the throttle or carburetor, depending on the model. Tightly close the lid of the expansion tank. Open the stove crane in the cabin on the hot position.
We start the engine. Immediately after starting the engine on the VAZ 2110, it is necessary to pay attention to the level of antifreeze in the expansion tank, it can immediately fall, this may mean that the water pump has downloaded the coolant liquid into the system. The wasting engine, pour to the level and run again. Warming up the car. During the warming up, we check the lack of leaks in the pumproom space, in places where hoses and traffic jams were filmed. Watch the engine temperature.
When setting the operating temperature within 90 degrees, turn on the stove if heats with warm air, turn off, and wait for the engine cooling fan. When the fan is turned on, we wait for it, the wasting engine, we are waiting for 10 minutes, so that the engine is slightly cooled, we unscrew the lid of the expansion tank, check the level of the coolant, we add, if necessary.
Features of the replacement
If in the engine cooling system there are small leaks and auto owner periodically fills water or antifreeze of different manufacturers, the old cooling fluid can purchase a rusty color. Foreign bodies may appear in the form of fine chips and rust, which, by the way, can lead to the failure of the main elements of the cooling system, water pump, thermostat, stove crane, etc.
In this regard, when replacing old antifreeze in this state, it is necessary to wash the system. This can be done using different additives, which is not always useful for the cooling system. Cleansing low-quality additives, not only may not help, and also output the cooling system nodes. Therefore, it is necessary to use high-quality additives and not save.
You can also wash the system with a natural way distilled water. After the procedure for the drain of old antifreeze, water is poured. The car runs at idle 10-15 minutes, then re-merged and the new antifreeze is poured. With a strong rust, you can repeat the procedure.
There is a cheaper and easiest way, you can simply shed a system with ordinary water, sequentially opening the radiator and the engine cork. Those. The engine cork is unscrewed and water spills through the expansion tank. Then the engine stopper is closed and the radiator plum stopper opens. To do only in this sequence, since the radiator is at the bottom point and the water will turn out.
