Abstract
The invention disclosed in this application relates to an improvement in a water cooling system for an engine of the type that passes air and water through the radiator at relatively low flow rates whenever the engine is running in its low idle speed condition. The radiator is disclosed as having upper and lower headers interconnected by a plurality of parallel extending rows of water tubes. A means responsive to the engine speed is provided for converting the water flow through the water tubes from a plurality of parallel paths to a single series path upon the engine speed dropping to its low idle speed condition.
