    I drive a roll off truck, new VHD volvo. Recently while dumping at the landfill, some lumber jumped up and ripped off coolant lines that run 2 the bottom of the DPF box. A dozer then had to push me bk to the main gate after dumping all the antifreeze on the ground while unloading. Brilliant design

    The louvers are called shutters. They are controlled by a shutter-stat - air operated. When the AC is in operation there were thermatic switches on the grilldenser (KW COE) back in the day. They worked really nice. They went away around 1976- 1977 on Kenworth.

    Route 135 heads south from syosset. When it was built there was a bit of concrete made just past jericho tpke. It was supposed to go to conneticut but it would have cut through the town of Oyster bay and others, and they did not want it. Route 135 is LI biggest n/s Speed trap! Be safe.

    I drove a truck in the 1960's that had the louvers in front of the radiator. Thermostatically controlled, air operated. I had one that started to run too warm. I checked everything that I could. Full of coolant, etc. I found a mechanic that figured it out in a minute or two. Crud built up in the joints of the little control arms on the shutters. He sprayed cleaner and spray lube in the joints. Problem solved and I knew what to do from then on. Usually O.K. in summer, but would get salt and other crud in the winter
