SYSTEM DRAINING






WARNING: Do not open the radiator draincock with the system hot and under pressure. Serious burns from coolant can occur.

1. Position a clean collecting container under draincock location.
2. Without removing the pressure cap and with system not under pressure, turn draincock counterclockwise to open.
3. The coolant reserve bottle should empty first, then remove the pressure cap.
4. If coolant reserve bottle does not empty first:
a. Check condition of the pressure cap and cap seals.
b. Check for kinked/torn overflow hose from filler neck to reserve bottle.
5. Allow cooling system to drain completely.
