MAINTAINING YOUR VEHICLE 285 With the engine at normal operating temperature (but not running), check the cooling system pressure cap for proper vacuum sealing by draining a small amount of antifreeze/coolant from the radiator drain cock. If the cap is sealing properly, the antifreeze/coolant will begin to drain from the coolant recovery bottle. DO NOT REMOVE THE COOLANT PRESSURE CAP WHEN THE COOLING SYSTEM IS HOT. Cooling System - Drain, Flush, And Refill At the intervals shown in the appropriate "Maintenance Schedule," the system should be drained, flushed, and refilled. If the solution is dirty and contains a considerable amount of sediment, clean and flush with reliable cooling system cleaner. Follow with a thorough rinsing to remove all deposits and chemicals. Properly dispose of old antifreeze/coolant solution. Discard old antifreeze/coolant solution according to recommended procedure. Selection Of Engine Coolant Use only the manufacturer's recommended antifreeze/ coolant, refer to Fluids, Lubricants, and Genuine Parts for correct antifreeze/coolant type. 7
