7. Perform the following:
. Clean the areas where the driveshaft(s) and theintermediate shaft contact the transmission (dif_ferential) thoroughly with solvent or carburetorcteaner, and dry with compressed air.. Check that the set rings on the ends of the drive_shaft and intermediate shaft click into place.CAUTION: Use new set rings,. Adjust the shift cable (see section 14).. Adjust the throttle cable (see section 11).. Adjust the cruise control cable (see section 23).. Refill the engine with engine oil (see page 8-6).. Refill the transmission with fluid (see section 13,14).
. Refill the radiator with engine coolant (see page10-7).
. Bleed air from the cooling system with the heatervalve open (see page j0-7).
. Clean the battery posts and cable terminals withsandpaper, assemble them, then apply grease toprevent corrosaon.. Inspect for fuel leakage (see section j l).After assembling the fuel line, turn on l) the igni_tion switch (do not operate the starter) so that thefuel pump runs for approximately two secondsand the fuel line pressurizes. Repeat this opera_taon two or three times, then check for fuel leak_age at any point in the fuel line,

CAUTION: when pouring engine coolant, be sure to
shut the relay box lid and not to lst coolant spill on the
eleqtrical parts or the paint. lf any coolant spills, rinse it
off immediately.
1. Slide the heater temperature control lever to maxl-
mum heat. Make sure the engine and radiator are
cool to the touch.

8. Mix the recommended antifreeze with an eoualamount of water in a clean container.
NOTE:
o Use only genuine Honda antifreeze/coolant.. For best corrosion protection. the coolant con_centration must be maintained year_round at50% minimum. Coolant concentrations less than50% may not provide sufficient protectionagainst corrosion or freezing.. Coolant concentrations greater than 60010 willimpair cooling efficiency and are not recom_mended.
CAUTION:
. Do not mix difforont brands ofar ilreeze/coolants.. Do not use additional rust inhibiiors or anti_rustproduqt3; they may not be compatible with thecoolant.

To test a closed thermostat:
1, Suspend the thermostat in a container of water as
shown.

Heat the water, and check the temperature with a
thermometer. Check the temperature at which the
thermostat first opens, and at which it is fully open
CAUTION: Do not let the thermometer touch the

a Attach a hose to the bleeder screw, and suspend
the hose in a container of brake fluid.
. Make sure there is an adequate supply of fluid at
the clutch master cylinder, then slowly pump the
clutch pedal until no more bubbles appear at the
bleeder hose.
. Refill the clutch master cylinder with fluid when
done.
. Always use Genuine Honda DOT 3 Brake Fluid.
Using a non-Honda brake fluid can cause corro-
sion and decrease the life of the system.
. Confirm clutch operation, and check for leaking
flu id.
