1A TUNE-UP PROCEDURE
Coolant Level (Cold engine)
1. Check that the coolant level is near the radiator inlet
port.
2. Check that the level in the coolant reservoir is be-
tween the FULL and LOW marks.
Add coolant if necessary.
Warning
a) Never remove the radiator cap while the en-
gine is hot.
b) Wrap a thick cloth around the cap and care-
fully remove it.

Adjusting bolt
3. Check the drive belt deflection by applying moder-
ate pressure (98 N, 10 kg, 22 lb) midway between
the pulleys.
