OPERATION
SAFETY RECOMMENDATIONS
Use extreme safety measures when working around a running engine, pressurized storage vessels, and automotive chemicals.
Always block the vehicle’s drive wheels.
Ventilate the vehicle’s exhaust if engine will be started.
Always wear safety glasses.
Protective gloves are recommended.
PREPARATION
Inspect the engine and the visible coolant system
components for any signs of damage or unusual wear.
Note the coolant level before beginning the service. If low,
see “COOLING SYSTEM PRESSURE / LEAK CHECK”
procedure to verify the system’s condition.
Depending on the desired service, make appropriate
connections (lowest and highest point) on the vehicle’s
coolant system.
Plug any open ports venting to the atmosphere (i.e.
overflow hose or a system vent cap).
To prevent running out of coolant and ingesting air, ensure
coolant tank level is showing at least 3 gallons on the sight
tube.
