TANK ASSY-RADIATOR RESERVOIR

Radiator Overflow Reservoir: Vital Cooling Support ?

Why This Part Is Essential

The radiator overflow reservoir plays a crucial role in your vehicle's cooling system. It stores excess coolant that expands when the engine heats up, preventing loss and making sure the engine stays at the correct temperature. Without this reservoir, engines can quickly overheat, risking severe damage.

How It Works

When your engine heats up, coolant flows from the radiator into the reservoir. As it cools, the system draws coolant back from the tank. This helps maintain proper fluid levels and pressure, ensuring efficient engine cooling at all times. It's a silent guardian keeping your cooling system in perfect balance.

Consequences of a Broken Tank

If this part cracks or leaks, coolant escapes, resulting in overheating. Signs of failure include low coolant warnings, puddles under the car, or frequent engine overheating. Ignoring these symptoms can lead to head gasket failure or engine seizure.
