Cooling system filler cap
Pressurized System: Hot coolant can cause seri-
ous burns. To open the cooling system filler cap,
stop the eng
ine and wait until the cooling system
components are cool. Loosen the cooling system
pressure cap slowly in order to relieve the pres-
sure.
1. Remove the cooling system filler cap slowly in
order to rel
ieve pressure.
2. Maintain the coolant level within 13 mm (0.5 inch)
of the bott
om of the filler pipe. If the engine is
equipped with a sight glass, maintain the coolant
level to the correct level in the sight glass.
3. Clean the cooling system filler cap and inspect the
gasket. If the gasket is damaged, discard the old
filler cap
and install a new filler cap. If the gasket
is not damaged, use a suitable pressurizing pump
in order to pressure test the filler cap. The correct
pressure
is stamped on the face of the filler cap. If
the filler cap does not retain the correct pressure,
install a new filler cap.
4. Inspect the cooling system for leaks.

NOTICE
Accumulated
grease and oil on an engine is a fire haz-
ard. Keep the engine clean. Remove debris and fluid
spills whenever a significant quantity accumulates on
the engine.
NOTICE
Failure to protect some engine components from
washing may make your engine warranty invalid.
Allow the engine to cool for one hour before washing
the engine.
Periodic cleaning of the engine is recommended.
Steam cleaning the engine will remove accumulated
oil and grease. A clean engine provides the following
benefits:
•
Easy detection of fluid leaks
•
Maximum heat transfer characteristics
•
Ease of maintenance
Note: Caution must be used in order to prevent
electrical components from being damaged by
excessive water when the engine is cleaned.
Pressure washers and steam cleaners should not be
directed at any electrical connectors or the junction of
cables into the rear of the connectors. Avoid electrical
components such as the alternator and the starter.
Protect the fuel injection pump from fluids in order
to wash the engine.
