Engine Coolant Level Inspection
ENGINE COOLANT LEVEL INSPECTIONWarning:
^ Remove and install all parts when the engine is cold, otherwise they can cause severe burns or serious injury.
^ 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 are sure all the pressure is gone, press down on the cap using the cloth, turn it, and remove it.
Note:
^ If the "FL22" mark is shown on or near the cooling system cap, use FL22 type engine coolant.
^ FL22 type engine coolant is shipped as a diluted solution (55% coolant, 45% water). Use the solution as is when replacing coolant.
1. Verify that the engine coolant level in the coolant reserve tank installed on the shroud panel is between the L and F marks.
2. If the engine coolant level is below L mark, add engine coolant.
