COOLING
SYSTEM
THERMOSTAT
A thermostat, located near the manifold
at
the front
of
the
engine, controls the coolant temperature as the coolant
continuously flows through the closed cooling circuit.
When the engine is first started, the closed thennostatpre-
vents coolant from flowing (some coolant
is
by-passed
through a hole
in
the thermostat to prevent the exhaust
manifold from overheating). As the engine warms up, the
thermostat gradually opens. The thermostat
is
accessible
and
can be checked, cleaned, or replaced easily. Carry a
spare theimostat and gasket.
