Engine Radiator

Water cooled radiator is a component of the cooling installation. It is located in the front part of the engine compartment that is cooled by air when driving. Today it is usually made of aluminium. In older cars water cooled radiator is made of brass. Coolant is continuously pumped by the water pump. Thus, the water cooled radiator ensures that the temperature remains within normal range. In order for the cooling to operate even in a stationary vehicle, there is an electric fan which switches automatically at a definite temperature.

When the temperature rises too high, there is a problem with the cooling system. A leak in the water cooled radiator is one of the possible causes. If the coolant flows out, it is often sufficient to replace the gaskets. Small holes can be sealed with special sealing compounds. Water cooled radiator can be easily damaged in the result of an accident as it is located in a crumple zone. Before replacing the radiator, it is necessary to bleed the coolant. It is not difficult to substitute the water cooled radiator, but it will be necessary to disassemble other car parts to reach it. 

After the water cooled radiator is installed and connected, it is filled in with new coolant. After this it is necessary to deflate air from the cooling system. Even a non professional mechanic will manage to replace the radiator. Buy cheap car parts in our online shop and you will save if you address to a repair shop.

HOW TO DETECT MALFUNCTION OF THE ENGINE COOLING SYSTEM RADIATOR

Inspect the radiator and assess the degree of its fouling - it may require cleaning. Start the engine at idle, then touch the radiator and the bottom pipe with your hand. If their temperatures do not change, the radiator of your car is probably clogged. Check the tanks of the device for leaks, and make sure there is no scale on the tubes of the radiator. More thorough diagnostics can be performed at a service station.
