Importance of the Radiator Cap
The radiator is a very important part of the temperature maintenance system. There are two valve-springs in the cap. One of the valves lets out the steam from the heated water and the other allows external air in, so vacuum is not created during the cooling process after engine is turned off. Commonly due to lack of knowledge about importance of the radiator cap, when the tractor’s original one is lost or broken, the owners replace it with any common cap that fits. This is harmful for the engine.
