Cooling System Draining, Filling and Bleeding










Bleeding without RADIATOR REFILLER

1. Select the maximum heater temperature and medium low blower motor speed settings. Position the control to discharge air at the panel vents in the instrument panel.

2. Start the engine and allow to idle. While the engine is idling, feel for hot air at the panel vents.

3. NOTICE: If air discharge remains cool and engine coolant temperature gauge does not move, engine coolant level is low in engine and must be filled. Stop engine, allow to cool and fill cooling system. Failure to follow these instructions may result in cooling system or engine damage.

Start engine and allow to idle until normal operating temperature is reached. Hot air should discharge from the panel vents. The engine coolant temperature gauge should maintain a stabilized reading in the middle of the NORMAL range and the upper radiator hose should feel hot to the touch.

4. Shut the engine off and allow to cool.

5. Check the engine for coolant leaks.

6. Check the engine coolant level in degas bottle and fill as necessary.
