| Take a look at your Nissan Pickup radiator closely and you will marvel at the fact that it even works at all. Like all radiators, it consists of a box made from thin aluminum, through which run a series of narrow tubes - any and all of which can easily clog with dirt and grime. The fact is that radiators do work and its a good thing. Without your Nissan pickup radiator your engine would quickly seize up into a useless mass of fused aluminum, iron, plastic, rubber and ceramic.
The Nissan pickup radiator is essentially a heat exchanger. A mixture of water and a chemical called propylene glycol circulates through passages in the engine block - known as water jackets - where it absorbs excess heat. This heat is carried back to the Nissan pickup radiator, where it flows through these narrow, slightly flattened tubes. Air rushing through the thin cooling fins exchanges its lower temperature for the higher temperature in these tubes. Normally, only water that is actually in contact with the inner surfaces of the tubes would be cooled. Therefore, most new radiators have a device called a "turbulator," which causes turbulence in the cooling fluid, allowing this temperature transfer to take place throughout all the water and anti-freeze molecules - not just those touching metal surfaces.
Radiators require regular cleaning and back flushing, at least once a year. You'll also want to pay attention to Nissan pickup car parts related to the cooling system such as hoses, the thermostat, etc. Even so, it won't last forever. If you never drove it anywhere, you would find that chemical reactions between the coolant chemicals and the materials inside your Nissan pickup radiator would be causing deterioration, and the epoxies used on seams lose their adhesiveness after about six or seven years. You may get 100,000 miles or more out of your Nissan pickup radiator, but eventually, it will need to be replaced.
