In the previous article we discussed cooling system problems, namely in relation to internal leaks and external leaks. With the various events that can happen to a car engine, it seems very risky to ignore cooling system problems. Therefore, it is important to pressure test the cooling system to ensure the condition of your engine.

Cooling System Pressure Test

Internal leaks can be diagnosed with a pressure test applied to the engine cooling system.

Leaks can also occur in the core plug©gobdp

Leak tests can also be carried out on core plugs. When you pressure test the cooling system, also pay attention to the core plug on the cylinder block. In cases of leaks that are quite severe, you will usually see fluid coming out of the side or middle of the core plug. Especially if the leak occurs for a long time. Then it will look like in the picture. Obviously the core plug replacement needs to be done.

When is your car’s regular maintenance scheduled?

As a note, to overcome leak problems that occur in the engine, an experienced mechanic will not repair your engine before the leak point is found. They will pressure test the cooling system, even repeatedly, to determine the point of leakage that occurs in the car.[]
