[TR] SECOND REQUEST Need page scanned from TR6 or GTB Bentley manual

[Tom Note]

I'll  paraphrase the flow description in Haynes. (I couldn't find anything 
in Bently, and I can't scan).  So:

   Cold water circulates up the lower rad. hose to the pump, then around the 
cyl. block.  Then up into the head and around the combustion spaces and 
valve seats; then, when the eng. is up to temp., out the cyl. head, past the 
open t'stat into the upper rad. hose and into the radiator.
It travels down the rad. and then out and up the lower hose again.

Circulation  thru the heater is not addressed, but  a diagram of the system 
shows water circulating from the pump to the rear of the head where part of 
the flow goes from the rearmost  outlet thru the heater hose, heater, and 
back thru the 2nd hose to the return at the lower part of the pump.
Part of the flow is also shunted to the intake manifold cooling/heating 
pipe.

I hope that's of some help.

Tom
