Engine Coolant Refilling and Bleeding
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.
Remove the radiator caP.
Loosen the drain plug, and drain the coolant'
Remove the drain bolt from the cylinder block'

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.

Start the engine and let it run until it warms up (theradiator fan comes on at least twicer.
Turn off the engine. Check the level in the radiator.add coolant if needed.
Put the radiator cap on tightly, then run the engineagain and check for leaks.

Cap Testing
1. Remove the radiator cap, wet its seal with engine
coolant, then install it on the pressure tester'
RADIATOR PR€SSURE TESTER(CommerciallY available)
RAOIATOR
(for 32 mm neck' low Pro{ile)
Apply a pressure of 93 - 123 kPa (0.95 - 'l 25 kgflcm''
14 - 18 psi).
Check for a drop in Pressure.
lf the pressure drops, replace the cap

Testing
LWait until the engine is cool, then carefully remove
the radiator cap and fill the radiator with engine
coolant to the top of the tiller neck
Attach the pressure tester to the radiator and apply

Replace the thermostat if it is open at room temperature'
To test a closed thermostat:
1, Suspend the thermostat in a container of water as
shown.
THEBMOMETER
THERMOSTAT
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
bottom of the hot Gonlainel.
Measure lift height of the thermostat when fully
open.

2. Suspend the ECT switch in a container of water as
shown.
Heat the water, and check the temperature with a
