Aftercooler Condensation - Drain
The aftercooler is similar to a radiator. Coolant passes through the tubes in the aftercooler core. Inlet air that is warmed by the turbocharger compressor is directed through the aftercooler core. The air is cooled in the aftercooler.
Condensation can form in the housing of the aftercooler. A drain plug is provided for draining the condensation.
