Why is my Villager Gasoline Engine overheat?
- TTina WalterAug 7, 2025
If your Villager gasoline engine overheats, several factors could be responsible. First, check if the oil level is sufficient and refill if necessary. A blocked exhaust pipe can also cause overheating, so clean it. Inspect the shroud for leaks and repair any damage. Ensure the cooling fins are free from obstructions; clear away any foreign matter. A loose or malfunctioning cooling fan can contribute to overheating, so reinstall it securely. Other potential causes include a deformed connection rod (replace it), worn cylinder, piston, or piston ring (replace the worn parts), or improper adjustment of the engine governor (readjust it). Lastly, a burnt-out crankshaft main bearing can lead to overheating, requiring replacement.
