Question

Air trapped in the cooling system could create undesirable areas of combustion heat buildup in the engine called _____.

Answer 1

Answer:

Air pockets.

Explanation:

Air pockets in the cooling system are bubbles of air trapped within the lines (hoses and pipes) of the cooling system. This air bubbles enter the cooling system usually during the process of filling the radiator coolant fluid (usually water), or replacing the water pump or the radiator hose during repairs or servicing of the cooling system. The trapped air prevent pressure movement that is needed by the coolant to move the heat generated from the engine cylinder, resulting in heat build up. The solution is to "bleed" the engine through the radiator lid or some air release valves.
