coolant

LLC
is
an

ethylene
glycol
base

product

to

protect
the

cooling
system
from

rusting

L
C

does
not
contain

any

glycerine

or

methyl
alcohol
It
will
not

evaporate

or

away
and

can

used
with
either

high

temperature
thermostat
It

flows

freely
transfers
heat

efficiently
and
will
not

clog
the

passages
in

must
not
be

products
This
coolant
can
be
used

throughout
tlie

seasons
of

year

Whenever

any

is

changed
the

THERMOSTAT

in
the

thermostat

expands

The

pellet
is
connected

through
a

piston
to
a
valve

and
when
the

peUet
is
heated

pressure
is

exerted

against
a
rubber

diaphragm
and
the
valve

opens

As
the

pellet
is
