Hy-per Cool Super Coolant Keeps Cars Running Cooler
Many things can contribute to an overheated engine, including using the air conditioning at full blast, stop-and-go driving on a scorching hot day, low coolant levels, a defective thermostat or a failed head gasket.
Long-Life Coolants Explained
Different types of coolants cover a range of applications from diesel to domestic, Asian and European vehicles. Each one is formulated to a specific manufacturer’s specifications to keep their engines at an optimal temperature. But, changes to the old one-size-fits-all formula has led to confusion for consumers and even some technicians.
Sealing Modern Water Pumps
Over the past 20 years, we have seen water pumps and cooling systems evolve to improve start-up emissions.
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.
DENSO Offers Advanced Air Conditioning Operation, Performance And Diagnostics Technical Training
The class expands DENSO’s Technical Training Program, developed to ensure technicians have the diagnostic and troubleshooting expertise to repair vehicles efficiently and correctly the first time.
Modern Cooling System Design: It’s Not About Temperature; It’s About Powertrain
Reading engineering papers tends to be a boring exercise, but they do give a technician like myself a new perspective on how a common automotive cooling system could actually be improved. Of course, our immediate thought is how the cooling system can keep the engine cooler. Not so, according to one paper.
