Good evening everyone ... I describe the problem I had. I was driving at night and when I got home I noticed that the engine temperature shot almost until it reached the red mark. I stopped the engine and waited for it to cool down, then turned on the switch again and the temperature had dropped a little below half and refilled the coolant container. I started the engine and the temperature did not rise. I would like to know that I can check the engine like oil or air filter to see if it suffered any severe damage or what I could expect from this unpleasant experience ... I have not driven the car after this. The one ford focuz zx3 engine zetec 16V 2.0L 2001. Thank you for your answers ...

it is easy to know if he suffered a damage .... just put water to the radiator up to ariba ,,,,, and turn on the engine ,,,, but look at the water k nothing comes out ,,, it must remain serene, ,,, or absorbed ,,,,, if the water comes out even if it is something very minimal ... the caveza's packing is damaged ..... but the caveza is rectified ..... and if not the water runs out ,,,, nothing happened to the engine ....... greetings
