2001 MAZDA MODEL TRIBUTE 4WD washer fluid

Cleaning the engine
Engines are more efficient when they are clean because grease and dirt
buildup keep the engine warmer than normal. When washing:
²Take care when using a power washer to clean the engine. The
high pressure fluid could penetrate the sealed parts and cause
damage.
² Do not spray with cold water when the engine is hot to avoid
cracking the engine block or other engine components.
² Never apply anything to the drive belt (including belt
dressing).
² 2.0L DOHC I4 Ð Zetec Engine
² 3.0L DOHC V6 Ð Duratec Engine

based on cooler size and if equipped with an in-tank cooler. The amount
of transmission fluid and fluid level should be set by the indication on
