CRP Automotive Introduces Environmentally Friendly Pentofrost E Antifreeze For Multipurpose Applications In Water-Cooled Engines

crpCRP Automotive, a leading source of OE-quality replacement parts for Asian and European import vehicle applications, has introduced Pentofrost E, a multipurpose antifreeze concentrate produced through an environmentally friendly process. According to CRP, this new product delivers the same performance as Pentofrost ++ while meeting the OE specifications of Audi/Volkswagen TL 774 J. It also is approved for Bentley and Lamborghini vehicles.

Pentofrost E is approved for Audi/Volkswagen 2006 and up. It can also be used where VW G12++ or G13 is required. Pentrofrost E meets ASTM D-3306 and is offered in 1.5L and 5L sizes.

Pentofrost E is produced using an environmentally friendly manufacturing process, which features the addition of glycerin to its glycol base. Its formula contains no nitrites, phosphates, amines or phosphorous containing additives, CRP says. The company adds that Pentofrost E protects all material used in cooling systems and is recommended for non-ferrous metals and year-round use.

According to Mark Malone, Pentosin brand manager, “Unlike commodity fluids for general application, Pentosin technical fluids are formulated to match OE specifications for specific performance, dilution and color.”

All Pentosin products are backed by the CRP Automotive standard of excellence. For more information, visit www.pentosin.net.

Toyota’s original Land Cruiser was the company’s version of a Jeep that could go anywhere. In its time it was highly rated and collected, which led the Japanese juggernaut to bring back an updated SUV in 2007 called the FJ Cruiser. The retro-styled vehicle was again a go anywhere machine powered by a 4.0L V6 (1GR-FE) used in the Tacoma. The engines are durable and considered relatively robust for the time.

Diagnosing Intelligent Cooling Systems

The majority of cooling systems on the roads react to what is happening inside the combustion chamber. After the engine is stressed, the heat causes the thermostat to open. Increases in temperatures will also cause the cooling fans to come on. The heat carried by the coolant is the trigger for operation of the fans and thermostat.

Modern Cooling System Design: It’s Not About Temperature; It’s About Powertrain

Given the advanced state of internal combustion engine technology, some recent cooling system innovations will actually increase engine torque and fuel economy while reducing exhaust emissions. Let me simplify that idea: new cooling system technology will make engines run better and cleaner. So, let’s get on the same page by reviewing some basics.
