First of all, let's start with a simple explanation of what the cooling system does. As the name implies, its main job is to cool and keep parts from overheating. The parts we are talking about are all of the moving components in an engine - from the cylinders to the block itself. This is done by the constant circulation of a coolant liquid through a closed loop. We will take a look at the main components of a cooling system and what they exactly do, down below. Main components of the cooling system: Engine block Coolant Pipes Radiator Cooling fan Heater Sensors Thermostat Water pump The engine block serves as the foundation of the cooling system, allowing coolant to flow freely through its holes and crevasses. It is made of metal, allowing it to aid in heat dissipation, ensuring optimal cooling performance. The cooling system operates by circulating a liquid to collect and transfer heat. Typically, the coolant consists of filtered water with a small amo ... read more
