Cars Q&A
I have tata sierra std. 1996 model. But from 3-4 months i am facing engine overheat problem,though i have done half engine overhaul + head overhaul in the last month. But still this problem continues. I can't even able to use AC, because it gets heated quickly on AC than w/o AC.Also i get feeling of lack of power & pickup while driving it. Mechanic told me it's due to piston boare problem. There is some minor gap between piston & boare. its gonna cost me near 20000/- but already i have spend 22000/- for half engine + head over haul. AC condenser is also new so there should not be overload problem. plz tell me what to do?

Hi,
There is no direct link between Gap between piston and bore ie rings problem and overheating .Please get radiator flushing/overhauling, check water pump and thermostat. Overheating cal also cause due to scale formation all over engine block after long usageOverall please check engine cooling system. dont go for reboring/change of rings.
