Is your vehicle running
hot? Overheating? Does the engine leak green
fluid from the cooling system? Are the belts due
for replacement? Are the hoses over 4 years old?
Any of these conditions may indicate the need
for service or repairs to your vehicle's engine
cooling system.

Engine Cooling/Radiator Services
The engine cooling system is comprised of many
different components that all must work
correctly for the system to cool the engine
properly. Any one component that fails can
effect the entire system, consequently causing
an engine overheating condition.
Cooling system failure is the number one reason
for automotive breakdown on our nation's
highways. Unlike a flat tire, you can't stop and
put on a spare. A failure of the engine cooling
system will mean a trip to the repair shop
behind a tow truck, which is why it is important
that you have periodic inspections and regular
maintenance of the cooling system.
