5. Position drive unit so that it is straight back and stop engine. Remove fill cap from pump.
Allow any foam in pump reservoir to disperse, then check fluid level and add fluid, as
required, to bring level up to FULL HOT mark on dipstick. DO NOT OVERFILL. Reinstall
fill cap securely.
IMPORTANT: Drive unit must be positioned straight back and power steering fluid
must be hot to accurately check fluid level.
6. If fluid is still foamy (in Step 5), repeat Steps 4 and 5 until fluid does not foam and level
remains constant.
Closed Cooling System
Checking Coolant Level
WARNING
Allow engine to cool down before removing pressure cap. Sudden loss of pressure
could cause hot coolant to boil and discharge violently. After engine has cooled,
turn cap 1/4 turn to allow any pressure to escape slowly, then push down and turn
cap all the way off.
1. Coolant level in heat exchanger should be full (to bottom of filler neck).
IMPORTANT: When reinstalling pressure cap, be sure to tighten it until it contacts
stop on filler neck.
2. Coolant level should be between the ADD and FULL marks on coolant recovery
reservoir with the engine at normal operating temperature.
