ABSTRACT:
A cooling system for a vehicle's engine including a plenum chamber disposed in the vehicle's body, an exhaust system, and a radiator disposed between an interior portion of the body including the engine and the plenum chamber and operatively connected to the engine. A fan is mounted in the plenum chamber between the radiator and the exhaust system and adjacent the radiator and, when operated, air within the interior portion of the body including the engine is drawn through the radiator and the plenum chamber and expelled through the exhaust system. A cover member is removably mounted on the body generally over the engine for providing access to the engine from outside the body. An air inlet system associated with the cover member provides air from outside the body to the radiator. A plate attached to cover member directs air provided by the inlet system to the radiator in a manner such that the incoming ambient air does not scrub over the heated engine or the transmission.
