when you have a water temperature up problem.. there is a few obvious problem you can check it out yourself
1. water is leaking out.. (it can be the radiator, the block or the pump itself) This is easily done by check water level or the radiator water level.
2. A mechanical failure.. such as fan not blowing or or the pump not working or the thermostat is not opening up.... (important point if you see the fan is running or pumping, it can be an aged fan or pump, ask your mechanic for a quick check)
3. under rare cases the part you change recently does not meet the standards you have requested. For example, a look at the rad you just change looks perfectly fine and ok. But in real world. Not all Rad or Pump is the same.
Take example a a proton wira rad, i have seen one with 6 fins in a row, but some good one can goes up to 12 fins. It look just exactly the same but just different builtup. Let say about pump. A standard pump may be working at 20L/min, but some "ayam" only pump 5L/min
Think back of what you have done recently... is must be one thing that trigger the something happen...
for the metal gasket.. it will not burnt just like that it can easily last you thousands of thousand before it fail.... the most problem i seen on the gasket, is a bad fitment or used a wrong one... don laugh.. it happened all the time ..haha...
