Driving down the freeway at 60 miles per hour, your engine is producing more than 4,000 controlled explosions every minute to keep you moving down the road. All of those explosions produce a lot of heat, which your engine's cooling system has to manage appropriately. If your engine is too cold, it will not run efficiently. If it is too hot, you could be headed for serious engine problems.
Cooling System Components
Your vehicle's cooling system uses a collection of components to help your engine stay in the correct operating temperature range. Working together with the Radiator fluid, or anti-freeze, the cooling system regulates your engine temperature and provides heat energy for the cabin heater. Your engine cooling system includes the following components:
- Radiator Fluid (Anti-Freeze)
- Radiator
- Cooling Fans
- Pressure cap and reserve tank
- Water Pump
- Thermostat
- Head Gaskets and Intake Manifold Gaskets
- Heater core
- Hoses and clamps
