Engine Cooling
Two most common forms of engine cooling are air-cooled and water cooled — most modern engines are water cooled. Some engines (air or water cooled) also have an oil cooler. Cooling is required to remove excessive heat — over heating can cause engine failure, usually from wear, cracking or warping.

Famous quotes containing the words engine and/or cooling:
“The machine unmakes the man. Now that the machine is perfect, the engineer is nobody. Every new step in improving the engine restricts one more act of the engineer,—unteaches him.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“As a bathtub lined with white porcelain,
When the hot water gives out or goes tepid,
So is the slow cooling of our chivalrous passion,
O my much praised but-not-altogether-satisfactory lady.”
—Ezra Pound (1885–1972)
