4. Turn the radiator cap counterclockwise with-
out pressing down on it, until it stops. This
relieves any pressure remaining in the cool-
ing system. And remove the radiator cap by
pushing down and turning counterclockwise.
Now fill the radiator with clean demineral-
ized or distilled water. Continue to add clean
demineralized or distilled water in small quan-
tities until the fluid level stays up in the
radiator neck.
5. Start the engine, top off the radiator with
water and then add engine coolant to the
reservoir until the level is between "LOW"
and "FULL".
6. Replace the radiator and reservoir caps and
check to be sure the drain cocks are fully
closed and not leaking.
WARNING:
The cooling fan is controlled by engine cool-
ant temperature and may sometimes oper-
ate even when the engine is not running.
Use extreme caution when working near the
blades of the cooling fan so that you are not
injured by a rotating fan blade. As the en-
gine coolant temperature decreases, the fan
will automatically shut off. This is a normal
condition.

SPARK PLUG REPLACEMENT
This operation should only be performed when
the engine is cold.
1. Remove plug lead from the spark plug to be
replaced, pulling the lead by the rubber cap.
(Pulling the lead may damage the carbon
conductor).
2. Clean around the base of the plug to be
removed, and install the plug socket ensur-
ing that the ceramic insulator does not be-
come damaged. Turn the socket anti-clock-
wise to remove the plug.

NOTE:
Spark plugs must only be cleaned using
purpose designed equipment. Wire brush-
ing may damage the centre electrode insula-
tor causing mis-firing to occur.
