Turn the radiator cap counterclock-
wise without  pressing down  on it,
until it stops. This relieves any pres-
sure remaining in  the cooling sys-
tem. And  remove the radiator  cap
by pushing down and turning coun-
terclockwise.
Fill the radiator with clean deminer-
alized or  distilled  water. Continue
to add clean  demineralized or dis-
tilled water in small quantities  until
the fluid level stays up in the radia-
tor neck.
5. Start the engine,  top off the radia-
tor with water and then add engine
coolant  to  the  reservoir  until  the
level is  between "L" and  "F".
6. Replace the radiator and  reservoir
caps  and  check  to   be  sure  the
drain cocks are fully closed and not
leaking.

Park the  car  on level  ground, set
the park-ing brake and remove the
radiator cap when  cool.
Be sure your drain receptacle is  in
place. Open the  drain cock on the
radiator. Allow all  the engine cool-
ant to  drain from  the cooling  sys-
tem, then securely  close the drain
cock.
3.
Check Section 9 for the capacity of
the  cooling  system   in  your  car.
Then, following the manufacturer's
directions  on  the  engine  coolant
container,   add   the   appropriate
quantity of  coolant to the  radiator.
