THERMOSTAT

A
wax

pellet
type
thermostat
is

mounted
in
the
thermostat

housing
at

the

cylinder
head
water

The
function
of
the
thermostat
is

to
control
the

flow
of
coolant
facili

tating
fast

and

regu

lating

temperature
The
ther

mostat
is

designed
to

open
and
close
at

predetermined
temperatures
and
if

not

operating
properly
should
be

re

moved
and

A

prevent

the

from

functioning

properly
If
the
thermostat
sticks
in

the

open

the

engine
warms

up
very
slowly
If
the
thermostat

sticks
in

the
closed

position

result
Therefore
the
ther

should
be

inspected
to

make

that
it
is
in

good

RADIATOR

The
radiator
is

a
conventional
down

flow

type
having

top
and

bottom

tanks
to

distribute
the
coolant
flow

uniformly
through
the
vertical
tube
of

radiator

radiator
filler

designed
to

maintain

above

pressure

The
relief
valve

consisting
of

a

blow

valve
and
a

vacuum
valve

helps
to

prevent
the
coolant
from

boiling
by
giving

pressure
to
it
How

ever
when

the

pressure
is
reduced

below

atmospheric

pressure
the

vacu

um
valve
allows
air

to
re
enter

the

radiator

preventing
the
formation
of
a

vacuum
in
the

cooling
system

DESCRIPTION

The
fuel

transfers
fuel
from

the
tank
to
the
carburetor
in
sufficient

quantity
to
meet
the

engine
require

ments
at

any
speed
or

load

The

not

affected

by

FUEL

PUMP

TESTING

A
fuel

pump
is

operating

properly

when
its

pressure
is

within

specifica

tions

and
its

capacity
is

equal
to
the

engine
s

requirements
at
all

speeds

Pressure
and

capacity
must
be
deter

mined

by
two
tests
while
the

pump
is

still

mounted
on
the

engine
Be
sure

there
is
fuel
in

the
tank
when

carrying

out
the
tests
