Changing Engine Coolant: Notes

WARNING:
  • To avoid being scalded, do not change engine coolant when engine is hot.
  • Wrap a thick cloth around radiator cap and carefully remove radiator cap. First, turn radiator cap a quarter of a turn to release built-up pressure. Then turn radiator cap all the way.
  • Be careful not to allow engine coolant to contact drive belts.
