Cooling System - Diesel Engines
When you decide it‘s safe to lift the hood, here’s what you’ll see:
A. Coolant surge tank pressure cap
B. Engine fan(s)
C. Radiator
A CAUTION:
If your vehicle has air conditioning, the auxiliary electric fan
under the hood can start up even when the engine is not running
and can injure you. Keep hands, clothing and tools away from
any underhood electric fan.
If the coolant inside the coolant surge tank is boiling, don’t do anything else
until it cools down.
The coolant level
should be
at or above
the
COLD mark. If it
isn’t,
you may have a
leak in the radiator
hoses, heater hoses,
radiator, water pump
or somewhere else in
the cooling system.

A CAUTION:
If your vehicle has air conditioning, the auxiliary engine fan

A CAUTION:
Things that burn can get on hot engine parts and start a fire.
These include liquids like gasoline or diesel fuel, oil, coolant,
brake fluid, windshield washer and other fluids, and plastic
or
rubber. You or others could be burned. Be careful not to drop or
spill things that
will burn onto a hot engine.
Before closing the hood, be sure
all filler caps are on properly. Pull down
the
hood and close it firmly.
