Platinum-tipped spark plugs will last longer than
conventional type spark plugs and can be
identified by blue lines on the ceramic shell.

NOTE:

Do not clean or regap platinum-tipped spark
plugs.

6. Start the engine, top off the radiator with

water and then add coolant to the reservoir
until the level is between "L" and "F".

WARNING:

The cooling fan is controlled by engine
coolant temperature and may sometimes
operate even when the engine is not run-
ning. Use extreme caution when working
near the blades of the coolant fan so that
you are not injured by a rotating fan blade.
As the engine coolant temperature de-
creases, the fan will automatically shut off.
This is a normal condition.

3. Be sure your drain receptacle is in place.

Open the drain cock on the radiator. Allow all
the engine coolant to drain from the cooling
system, then securely close the drain cock.

4. 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 quan-
tity of coolant to the radiator.

5. Fill the radiator with clean demineralized or

distilled water. Continue to add clean dem-
ineralized or distilled water in small quantities
until the fluid level stays up in the radiator
neck.

7. Replace the radiator and reservoir caps and

check to be sure the drain cocks are fully
closed and not leaking.
