Cooling Fan Assemblies Save Time And Simplify Repairs
When your customers start coming in for cooling fan issues this summer, your business will heat up fast. Before tackling these problems by trying to repair or replace the individual fan motor, consider replacing the entire cooling fan assembly. You’ll eliminate a lot of unnecessary steps, hassles and probably unbillable labor.
Torque Converter Basics
The concept of using a torque converter, oil pump, planetary gear sets, clutches, bands and a computer-controlled hydraulic valve body to transmit torque and to change gear ratios is relatively simple. The torque converter allows the engine to idle in gear with the vehicle stopped and multiplies engine torque during the initial stages of acceleration.
Direct Injection Diagnostics: Taking Pressure Readings
Direct injection is becoming standard on more and more late-model vehicles. These systems can be a diagnostic challenge, but with the right foundation, problems can be solved profitably.
Inside Throttle-By-Wire
A simple cable linking the gas pedal to the throttle plate just wasn’t good enough for engineers, who have now complicated the design with throttle-by-wire.
