Radiator: Description and Operation

Radiator Components:

Radiator Mounting:

RADIATOR
The radiator is a crossflow, tube, and center type, utilizing an aluminum core with plastic side tanks.

Radiator Shroud
Shrouds direct air flow through the radiator core and also serve as a fan guard. Provision for coolant expansion is achieved with a coolant recovery reservoir that prevents coolant overflow and reduces frequent refills.

Oil Coolers
A transmission oil cooler is built into the right tank of the radiator, with inlet and outlet fittings for transmission fluid circulation. There is an optional engine oil cooler available that is built into the left tank, with inlet and outlet fittings for engine oil circulation.

Radiators With A/C
Vehicles equipped with air conditioning use a radiator with extra cooling capacity for greater cooling demands.
