ENGINE COOLANT ENGINE COOLANT PREPARATION SST INSPECTION 49 9200 145 Adapter set, radiator cap tester Warning Removing the radiator cap or the coolant drain plug while the engine is running, or when the engine and radiator are hot is dangerous. Scalding coolant and steam may shoot out and cause serious injury. It may also damage the engine and cooling system. Turn off the engine and wait until it is cool. Even then, be very careful when removing the cap. Wrap a thick cloth around it and slowly turn it counterclockwise to the first stop. Step back while the pressure escapes. When you're sure all the pressure is gone, press down on the cap - still using a cloth -turn it, andremove it. For inspection of cooling system pressure Coolant Level (Engine Cold) 1. Verify that the coolant level is near the radiator filler neck. 2. Verify that the coolant level in the coolant reservoir is be- tween the FULL and LOW marks. Add coolant if neces- sary. u Note The distance between the LOW and FULL marks on the coolant reservoir represents 4.5 L (4.8 US qt, 4.0 Imp qt). Coolant Quality 1. Verify that there is no buildup of rust or scale around the radiator cap or radiator filler neck. 2. Verify that coolant is free of oil. Replace the coolant if necessary. 49 9200 146 Adapter A (Part of 49 9200 145) Coolant Leakage 1. Connect a radiator tester (commercially available) and the SST to the radiator filler neck. 2. Apply 103 kPa (1.05 kgf/cm2, 14.9 psi} pressure to the system. 3. Verify that the pressure is held. If not, check for coolant leakage. For inspection of cooling system pressure / V Caution Apply more than 103 kPa (1.05 kgf/cm2, 14.9 psi) can damage the hoses, fittings, and other compo- nents, and cause leaks. Gartner Banana

Scalding coolant and steam may shoot out and cause seri- ous injury. It may also damage the engine and cooling system. Turn off the engine and wait until it is cool.

When you're sure all the pressure is gone, press down on the cap-still using a cloth-turn it, and remove it. 1. Verify that the coolant level is near the radiator filler neck. 2. Verify that the coolant level on the coolant dipstick is be- tween the F and L marks. 3. Add coolant if necessary. Battery Removing the label on the top of the battery or removing the vent caps will void the battery's warranty. 1. Clean any corrosion on the clamps or battery posts. 2. Verify that the battery top is clean. If necessary, clean with baking soda and water. 3. Verify that cables are in good condition and not frayed or corroded. Repair or replace if necessary. 4. Verify that cable clamps are tight. Note Because this is a maintenance free battery, it is not necessary to check the fluid level. Gartner Banana
