maintenance check at
least once every two years.
Below are 5 other recommended tips.
|
A radiator pressure cap test to
check for the recommended system
pressure level.
A thermostat check for proper opening
and closing.
A pressure test to identify any external leaks to the cooling system
parts; including the radiator,
water pump, engine coolant passages, radiator
and heater hoses and heater
core .
A visual inspection of all cooling system components, including
belts and hoses a system
power flush and refill with car manufacturer's recommended

Radiator Terms
Flush
and repair: We remove the radiator from the vehicle, Then it is cleaned externally
using a powerful spray gun and flushed internally. Then we
pressure test, inspect and repair as needed.
Clean
and repair: We removed the radiator from the vehicle, Then we clean it and
flush it internally by cleaning it in a specially formulated
cleaner. It is then flushed, pressure tested, inspected and
repaired as needed.
Rod-out
and repair: We remove the radiator clean it externally and flush it internally
by immersion. It is then pressure tested, inspected and repaired
as needed. One or both tank (tanks) is removed and a rod is
inserted into each tube to remove debris. Once complete, the
radiator is reassembled and tested.
Recore: When a radiator
core is to weak to hold up under normal operating conditions
or it has been damaged beyond repair a new core must be installed.
Plastic
radiator tanks and gasket replacement: We removed the radiator from the vehicle and detach the damaged
tank and gasket. The tank and gasket is replaced with new
parts and the radiator is tested.
Rebuilt radiator:
We remove the radiator from the vehicle, We then remove both tanks
from the core. we inspect the flow of the core and if needed
we rod-out the core. We then place the radiator into a ultrasonic
cleaner to clean the tube to header joints. It is then flushed
and all the tubes are soldered at the header joints. The tanks
are install and it is pressure tested.
