1. GENERAL DESCRIPTION

The cooling system maintains the engine temperature at an efficient level during all engine operating 

conditions. When the engine is cold, the cooling system cools the engine slowly or not at all. This slow 

cooling of the engine allows the engine to warm up quickly. The cooling system includes a radiator and 

recovery subsystem, cooling fans, a thermostat and housing, a water pump, and a water pump drive 

belt. The timing belt drives the water pump. All components must function properly for the cooling 

system to operation. The water pump draws the coolant from the radiator.

The coolant then circulates through water jackets in the engine block, the intake manifold, and the 

cylinder head. When the coolant reaches the operating temperature of the thermostat, the thermostat 

opens. The coolant then goes back to the radiator where it cools. This system directs some coolant 

through the hoses to the heat core. This provides for heating and defrosting. The coolant reservoir is 

connected to the radiator to recover the coolant displaced by expansion from the high temperatures. 

The coolant reservoir maintains the correct coolant level. The cooling system for this vehicle has no 

radiator cap or filler neck. The coolant is added to the cooling system through the coolant reservoir.
