Although our cars have improved a lot over the years, they still have the tough job of turning chemical energy into mechanical power to help us cruise our highways and byways. Since most of the energy in the gasoline is converted into heat, the cooling system has the tough job to cool it off quickly and efficiently.
Cooling System – “The Heart of Your Vehicle”
You can think of your cars cooling system as the heart of a vehicle. The water pump circulates vital fluid, car coolant / antifreeze, through the engine’s radiator and the primary job a car’s cooling system is to “regulate” or keep the engine from overheating by transferring this heat to the air. The cooling system also has several other important jobs, such as allowing the engine to heat up as quickly as possible, and then keeping the engine at a constant temperature. Unlike the human body, your car does not reproduce new car coolant to keep it running optimally. A regularly scheduled car coolant flush and fill is critical to maintain your cooling system and the overall health of your vehicle.
