DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION

COOLING SYSTEM

DESCRIPTION

The cooling system consists of:
• Radiator

• Cooling fan (mechanical/Electrical)

• Thermal viscous fan drive

• Fan shroud

• Radiator pressure cap

• Thermostat

• Coolant reserve/overflow system (integral to

upper fan shroud)

• Transmission oil cooler (if equipped with an

automatic transmission)

• Coolant

• Water pump

• Hoses and hose clamps

OPERATION

The cooling system regulates engine operating tem-

perature. It allows the engine to reach normal oper-

ating temperature as quickly as possible. It also
maintains normal operating temperature and pre-
vents overheating.

The cooling system also provides a means of heat-

ing the passenger compartment and cooling the auto-
matic transmission fluid (if equipped). The cooling
system is pressurized and uses a centrifugal water
pump to circulate coolant throughout the system.

An optional factory installed maximum duty cool-

ing package is available on most models. This pack-
age will provide additional cooling capacity for
vehicles used under extreme conditions such as
trailer towing in high ambient temperatures.

COOLANT RESERVE/OVERFLOW SYSTEM

DESCRIPTION

The coolant reserve/overflow tank is integral to the

upper fan shroud assembly and is made of high tem-
perature plastic.
