Radiator
If the water side of the radiator is found exces-
sively rusted or covered with scales, clean it
by flushing with the radiator cleaner compound.
This flushing should be carried out at regular
intervals for scale or rust formation advances
with time even where a recommended type of
coolant is used. Periodical flushing will prove
more economical.
Inspect the radiator cores and straighten the
flattened or bent fins, if any. Clean the cores,
removing road grimes and trashes.
Excessive rust or scale formation on the wet side
of the radiator lowers the cooling efficiency.
Flattened or bent fins obstruct the flow of air
through the core to impede heat dissipation.
