Actuators receive signals from the powertrain control module and carry out adjustments needed based on the data the PCM received from the sensors.
The fluid reservoir stores the brake fluid that the master cylinder uses to maintain hydraulic pressure.
The radiator is responsible for tranferring heat from the coolant to the outside air. Radiator hoses transfer coolant to and from the engine to the radiator and a radiator cap maintains pressure in the cooling system to increase the boiling point of the coolant mixture and thus allow it to absorb more heat.
A water jacket is a coolant-filled casing that allows heat transfer from the engine block and cylinder heads to the liquid coolant.
