SPECIAL HOOKUPS
Special Hookup 1) It may be necessary to reverse the hoses during the coolant
replacement procedure on the next page for systems with a
reverse-connected thermostat. See note after Step 6 on next
page for the symptoms of this situation.
Special Hookup 2) Some cooling systems do not have a cap on the radiator.
Instead, there is a single cap on the overflow tank as shown in
the illustration below.
The hoses to and from the overflow tank must be pinched using
hose pinching pliers during the coolant replacement procedure
on the next page.
Failure to pinch these hoses will cause fluid to be forced out of
the vented cap on the overflow tank during the coolant
replacement procedure.
