cooling my engine

[Rs4 drift]

what is the best way to cool your engine after running it?

I just let it sit. With the body off.

Yeah what Flander said, just make sure the piston is at BDC.

 

[flandersander]

Why do you gotta do that???

Why do you gotta do that???

BDC when cooling it??

its because when the engine cools down the piston sleeve will kind of shrink down when its cooling when its hot it expands..by BDC the piston when cooling it makes it best for the piston to be at BDC so when the piston sleeve cools down it wont have strees on the piston from being squeez that for a better engine life..

is that what you reffering?

Ah that makes total sense. Thanks for the little tip.
