Checking Cooling System For Leaks
WARNING: This page is about a different variant/trim than selected.
WARNING:
- Do not remove the radiator cap or reservoir tank cap when the engine is hot. Serious burns could occur from high-pressure engine coolant escaping from the cooling system.
- When removing the radiator cap or reservoir tank cap, wrap a thick cloth around the cap and slowly turn it a quarter turn to allow built-up pressure to escape. Then carefully remove the cap by turning it all the way.
To check the cooling system for leaks, install Tools (A), (B), (C) and (D) to reservoir tank and apply pressure to the cooling system.
