Internal combustion engines naturally create friction. Even the best motor oils, which help reduce the friction by making everything slippery thus generating a minimal amount of friction, the engine still produces a tremendous amount of resistance or friction. Friction creates heat, the ultimate enemy of engines from every corners of the world. Thus, the advent of cooling systems. It basically is the job of your cooling system to get rid of the tremendous heat generated as quickly and efficiently as possible. The basic parts of your car’s cooling system are the radiator, auxilliary fan, water pump, thermostat, a heat sensor, and overflow tank. The system works by channeling the water around the hottest parts of the engine mainly, the cylinder heads and valves, then the system redirects that fluid out to the radiator, where the heat collected from the cylinder heads gets distributed into the cooler atmosphere. Then the whole cycle begins again. Unless you own old German cars which are air-cooled. Like Porsche and Volkswagen.
