{CAUTION:
You can be burned if you spill coolant
on hot engine parts. Coolant contains
ethylene glycol and it will burn if the engine
parts are hot enough. Do not spill coolant
on a hot engine.
You can remove the
coolant surge tank
pressure cap when
the cooling system,
including the coolant
surge tank pressure cap
and upper radiator hose,
is no longer hot.
1. Turn the pressure cap slowly counterclockwise.
If you hear a hiss, wait for that to stop. A hiss
means there is still some pressure left.
2. Then keep turning the cap and remove it.
3. Fill the coolant surge
tank with the proper
mixture to the FULL
COLD mark on the
side of the coolant
surge tank.
4. With the coolant surge tank cap off, start the
engine and let it run until you can feel the
upper radiator hose getting hot. Watch out
for the engine cooling fans.
By this time, the coolant level inside the
coolant surge tank may be lower. If the level
is lower, add more of the proper mixture
to the coolant surge tank until the level
reaches the FULL COLD mark on the
side of the coolant surge tank.
5. Then replace the cap. Be sure the cap is
hand-tight and fully seated.
