Cooling System
Radiator & Cooling System Service
Good Works Auto Repair knows that once a cooling system suffers long-term neglect, it turns into an on-going source of problems. Once corrosion takes place, the damage is difficult to reverse.
Cooling system neglect is cited as a principal reason for mechanical failure of a vehicle. In addition to the danger and inconvenience of a breakdown, the damage to the engine and transmission can add up to thousands of dollars. Discovering a leaking radiator, hose connection, a sticking thermostat or other cooling system component that’s on “borrowed time” can save the life of one’s engine. Additionally, overheating can damage valve guides, scuff pistons, crack cylinder heads, and crush head gaskets.
