• Loose connections
• Chafing
• Deterioration
CHECKING RESERVOIR LEVEL
• Check if the engine coolant reservoir tank level is within MIN to
MAX when the engine is cool.
• Adjust engine coolant level as necessary.
ENGINE COOLANT : Changing Engine Coolant
INFOID:0000000009478627
WARNING:
• To avoid being scalded, do not change the coolant when the engine is hot.
• Wrap a thick cloth around the cap to carefully remove the cap. First, turn the cap a quarter of a turn
to release any built-up pressure, then push down and turn the cap all the way to remove it.
• Avoid direct skin contact with used coolant. If skin contact is made, wash thoroughly with soap or
hand cleaner as soon as possible.
• Keep coolant out of the reach of children and pets.
DRAINING ENGINE COOLANT
1. Turn ignition switch ON and set temperature control lever all the way to HOT position or the highest tem-
perature position. Wait 10 seconds and turn ignition switch OFF.
2. Remove the engine under cover. Refer to
EXT-15, "Removal and Installation"
.
3. Open the radiator drain plug at the bottom of the radiator, and
remove the reservoir cap. This is the only step required when
partially draining the cooling system (radiator only).
CAUTION:
• Do not allow the coolant to contact the drive belts.
• Perform this step when engine is cold.
4. Follow this step for heater core removal/replacement only. Disconnect the upper heater hose at the
engine side and apply moderate air pressure [103.46 kPa (15 psi, 1.055 kg/cm
2
) maximum air pressure]
into the hose for 30 seconds to blow the excess coolant out of the heater core.
5. When draining all of the coolant in the system for engine
removal or repair, it is necessary to drain the cylinder block.
Remove the cylinder block drain plug to drain the cylinder block
as shown.
CAUTION:
Do not reuse copper sealing washers.
NOTE:
For Canada, the cylinder block drain plug as shown, is not a cyl-
inder block drain plug but a block heater.

6. Remove the reservoir tank to drain the engine coolant, then clean the reservoir tank before installing it.
7. Check the drained coolant for contaminants such as rust, corrosion or discoloration.
If the coolant is contaminated, flush the engine cooling system. Follow the "Flushing Cooling System" pro-
cedure.
REFILLING ENGINE COOLANT
1. Close the radiator drain plug. Install the reservoir tank and cylin-
der block drain plug and block heater (if equipped).
CAUTION:
Do not reuse copper sealing washers.
• The radiator must be completely empty of coolant and water.
• Apply sealant to the threads of the cylinder block drain plugs.
• Use Genuine High Performance Thread Sealant or equiva-
GI-21, "Recommended Chemical Products
• Tighten each plug to the specified torque.
2. Set the vehicle heater controls to the full HOT and heater ON position. Turn the vehicle ignition ON with
the engine OFF as necessary to activate the heater mode.
3. Remove the vented reservoir cap and replace it with a non-vented reservoir cap before filling the cooling
system.
4. Install the Tool by installing the radiator cap adapter onto the
radiator neck opening. Then attach the gauge body assembly
with the refill tube and the venturi assembly to the radiator cap
adapter.
5. Insert the refill hose into the coolant mixture container that is
placed at floor level. Make sure the ball valve is in the closed
position.
CAUTION:
Do not use any cooling system additives such as radiator
sealer. Additives may clog the cooling system and cause
damage to the engine, transmission and/or cooling system.
NOTE:
Use recommended coolant or equivalent. Refer to
USA AND CANADA : Fluids and Lubricants"
.
6. Install an air hose to the venturi assembly, the air pressure must
be within specification.
CAUTION:
The compressed air supply must be equipped with an air dryer.
7. The vacuum gauge will begin to rise and there will be an audible hissing noise. During this process open
the ball valve on the refill hose slightly. Coolant will be visible rising in the refill hose. Once the refill hose is
full of coolant, close the ball valve. This will purge any air trapped in the refill hose.

8. Continue to draw the vacuum until the gauge reaches 28 inches
of vacuum. The gauge may not reach 28 inches in high altitude
locations, use the vacuum specifications below based on the
altitude above sea level.
9. When the vacuum gauge has reached the specified amount, disconnect the air hose and wait 20 seconds
to see if the system loses any vacuum. If the vacuum level drops, perform any necessary repairs to the
system and repeat steps 6 - 8 to bring the vacuum to the specified amount. Recheck for any leaks.
10. Place the coolant container (with the refill hose inserted) at the same level as the top of the radiator. Then
open the ball valve on the refill hose so the coolant will be drawn up to fill the cooling system. The cooling
system is full when the vacuum gauge reads zero.
CAUTION:
Do not allow the coolant container to get too low when filling, to avoid air from being drawn into
the cooling system.
11. Remove the Tool from the radiator neck opening and install the radiator cap.
12. Remove the non-vented reservoir cap.
13. Fill the cooling system reservoir tank to the specified level. Run the engine to warm up the cooling system
and top up the system as necessary before installing the vented reservoir cap.
14. Install the engine under cover. Refer to
EXT-15, "Removal and Installation"
FLUSHING COOLING SYSTEM
1. Drain the engine coolant from the engine cooling system. Refer to
CO-12, "Changing Engine Coolant"
2. Fill the radiator and the reservoir tank (to the "MAX" line) with water. Reinstall the radiator cap and leave
the vented reservoir cap off.
3. Run the engine until it reaches normal operating temperature.
4. Press the engine accelerator two or three times under no-load.
5. Stop the engine and wait until it cools down.
6. Drain the water from the engine cooling system. Refer to
CO-12, "Changing Engine Coolant"
.
7. Repeat steps 2 through 6 until clear water begins to drain from the radiator.

OIL LEVEL
• Before starting the engine make sure the vehicle is parked on a flat
and level surface, then check the oil level. If the engine is already
running, turn it off and allow 10 minutes before checking.
• Pull out oil level gauge and wipe clean.
• Insert oil level gauge.
• Check that the oil level is within the low (L) and high (H) range as
indicated on the dipstick.
• If the engine oil level is out of range, add oil as necessary. Refer to
MA-16, "FOR USA AND CANADA : Fluids and Lubricants"
.
CAUTION:
Do not overfill the engine with oil.
NOTE:
It is normal to add some oil between oil maintenance intervals or during the break-in period, depending on the
severity of the operating conditions.
ENGINE OIL : Changing Engine Oil
INFOID:0000000009478631
WARNING:
• Be careful not to burn yourself, as the engine and engine oil may be hot.
• Prolonged and repeated contact with used engine oil may cause skin cancer; try to avoid direct skin
contact with used oil. If skin contact is made, wash thoroughly with soap or hand cleaner as soon as
possible.
1. Warm up the engine and check for any oil leaks
2. Stop the engine and wait for at least 10 minutes.
3. Remove the oil drain plug and oil filler cap to drain the old oil.
4. Install a new washer on the oil drain plug, then install the oil
drain plug in the oil pan.
CAUTION:
• Clean the drain plug and install with new washer.
• Do not reuse copper sealing washers.
5. Refill the engine with new specified engine oil.
