Radiator: Description and Operation





DESCRIPTION
These engines use a cross-flow, lightweight aluminum and plastic radiator. Clinch tabs fasten the end tanks to the core. A high temperature rubber gasket (2) seals each of the end tanks. The right side end tank houses the transmission oil cooler. The left side end tank houses the engine oil cooler. Rubber gaskets (6) and nuts (5) seal the oil cooler fittings to the end tanks. The drain cock is plastic and this is at the bottom of the left side end tank. The radiator consists of the following components:
^ A brazed aluminum tube and center core (1)
^ Two plastic end tanks (9, 4)
^ A transmission oil cooler (3)
^ An engine oil cooler (11)
