Thermostat
Engine coolant temperature
is
controlled
by
a thermostat
in the engine coolant system. The thermostat stops the
flow
of
coolant through the radiator until the coolant
reaches
a
preset temperature.
When
you
replace your thermostat, an
AC’
thermostat
is recommended.

How
To
Check
Power
Steering
Fluid
When the engine compartment
is
cool, unscrew the cap
and wipe the dipstick with a clean rag. Replace the cap
and completely tighten
it.
Then remove the cap again
and look at the fluid level
on
the dipstick.
The level should be at the
H
mark if the engine is warm,
or at the
C
mark
if
the engine is cold. Add enough fluid
to bring the level up
to
the mark.
A
fluid loss in this system could indicate a problem.
Have the system inspected and repaired.
What
to
Add
Refer to the Maintenance Schedule
to
determine what
kind
of
fluid to use. See “Recommended Fluids and
Lubr’
nts”
in the Index.
I
NOTICE:
~~
When adding power steering fluid or making a
complete fluid change, always use the proper
fluid. Failure to use the proper fluid
can
cause
leaks and damage hoses and seals.
