Fan Shroud: Description and Operation
RADIATOR AIR BAFFLE ASSEMBLIES, DEFLECTORS, AND SEALS
A deflector redirects air flow. Deflectors are installed under the vehicle and redirects the air flow beneath the vehicle to flow through the cooling
system. The deflectors perform the following functions:
^
Reduce drag
^
Prevent front end lift
^
Increase radiator cooling
Air baffles are used to direct air into the radiator and A/C condenser. Air seals ensure that air passes through, and does not bypass, the radiator and the
A/C condenser. A missing, damaged, or incorrectly installed baffle or seal may cause the engine to overheat.
