Checking Water Level, Replenshing and Changing
Cooling Water
1. Remove the radiator cap and check to see that the cooling
water level is just below the port.
2. If low, add clean water and antifreeze.
A
CAUTION:
• Do not remove the radiator cap until cooling water tem
perature is below its boiling point. Then loosen the cap
slightly to relieve any excess pressure before removing
the cap completely.
• IMPORTANT:
• Use clean, fresh water to fill the radiator.
• Be sure to close the radiator cap securely. If the cap is
loose or improperly closed, water may leak out and the
engine could overheat.
• To drain the used coolant completely, open the radiator
drain cocks and remove the radiator cap.
• Do not use the antifreeze duing hot weather to maintain
engine performance since the cooling water boiling point
rises.
• The radiator should be filled with part antifreeze and part
water at all times as recommended by the antifreeze
manufacturer.
• Do not use an antifreeze and scale inhibitor at the same
time.
