Maintenance – Diesel Engine Models
Check Antifreeze Level
The engine coolant level and quality should be checked
before each use, when the engine is off and cool.
1. Check the coolant level in the overflow reservoir (A,
Figure 24). Coolant should be between the “H” and
“L” marks on the tank.
2. If the coolant level is below the “L” mark on the over-
flow reservoir, add coolant by shutting off the engine,
allowing the engine to cool, removing the reservoir
cap, and adding coolant. Proper coolant mix is a
50/50 mixture of ethylene glycol based anti-freeze
and distilled water.
Change Antifreeze
Refer to the engine manual for specific antifreeze
procedures. The antifreeze drain valve is located at the
base of the left hand side of the radiator.
