The engine coolant outlet pipe incorporates a thermostatic control valve, which is designed to reduce engine coolant warm up time. During engine warm up the thermostatic control valve remains closed until the engine coolant reaches the desired temperature. After the engine reaches the optimal operation temperature, the thermostatic control valve allows the engine coolant to flow through the cylinder block.
