FLUSH COOLING SYSTEM AND CHANG-
ING COOLANT
If cooling water freezes, it can damage
the cylinders and radiator. It is necessary,
if the ambient temperature falls below 0°C
(32°F), to remove cooling water after
operating or to add anti-freeze to it.
1. There are two types of anti-freeze
available; use the permanent type (PT)
for this engine.
2. Before adding anti-freeze for the first
time, clean the radiator interior by pour-
ing fresh water and draining it a few
times.
3. The procedure for mixing of water and
anti-freeze differs according to the
make of the anti-freeze and the ambi-
ent temperature, basically it should be
referred to SAE J1034 standard, more
specifically also to SAE J814c.
4. Mix the anti-freeze with water, and
then fill into the radiator.
