THERMOSTAT

A
wax

pellet
type
thermostat
is

mounted
in
the
thermostat

housing
at

the

cylinder
head
water
outlet

The
function
of
the
thermostat
is

to
control
the

flow
of
coolant

tating
fast

regu

lating

The
ther

mostat
is

designed
to

open
and
close
at

predetermined
temperatures
and
if

not

operating
properly
should
be

re

moved
and

A

prevent

the

cooling

from

functioning

properly
If
the

the

engine
warms

up
very
slowly
If
the
thermostat

sticks
in

the
closed

position

RADIATOR

The
radiator
is

a
conventional
down

flow

type
having

top
and

bottom

tanks
to

distribute
the
coolant
flow

uniformly
through
the
vertical
tube
of

radiator
core

The

radiator
filler

cap
is

designed
to

maintain
a

pre
set

pressure

kg
cm2
13

psi
above

atmospheric

pressure

The
relief
valve

consisting
of

a

blow
off

valve
and
a

vacuum
valve

helps
to

prevent
the
coolant
from

boiling
by
giving

pressure
to
it
How

ever
when

the

pressure
is
reduced

below

atmospheric

pressure
the

vacu

um
valve
allows
air

to
re
enter

the

radiator

preventing
the
formation
of
a

vacuum
in
the

cooling
system

In

checking
the
automatic
transmis

sion

the
o
illevel
and
the
condition
of

oil
around
the
oil
level

gauge
should
be

examined
This
is

an

easy
and
effective

trouble

shooting

procedure
since

some

changes
in
oil
condition

are
often

linked
with

developed
troubles

For
instance

Lack
of
oil
causes

faulty
operation

by
making
the
clutches
and

brakes

slip
resulting
in

severe
wear

This
is
because
the
oil

pump
sucks

air

causing
oil

foaming
thus

rapidly

deteriorating
the
oil

quality
and

pro

ducing
sludge
and

varnish

Excessive
oil
is

also
bad
because
of

oil

foaming
caused

by
the

gears

stirring

up
the
oil

During
high
speed

driving

excessive

oil
in

the

transmission
often

blows
out

from
the
breather
