Check the cooling system parts such as the radiator, heater
and oil cooler hoses, thermostat and their connections for leak-
age and damage.
.
CHANGING COOLANT
1. Set the temperature control knob to the "HOT" position.
2. Run the engine until the engine coolant warms, and then
stop the engine.
When removing the radiator cap, use care to avoid
contact with hot coolant or steam. Place a shop towel
over the cap and turn the cap counterclockwise a lit-
tle to let the pressure escape through the vinyl tube.
After relieving the steam pressure, remove the cap by
slowly turning it counterclockwise.
3. Drain the water from the radiator, heater core and engine
after unplugging the radiator drain plug and removing the
radiator cap.

Required Special Tool:
MB995061: Purge Flow Indicator
1. Disconnect the purge hose from the evaporative emission
(EVAP) purge solenoid, and connect special tool MB995061
between the EVAP purge solenoid and the purge hose.
2. Before inspection, set the vehicle in the following conditions:
Engine coolant temperature: 80 95C (176 203F)
Lights, electric cooling fan and accessories: OFF

check it again with the vacuum hose disconnected from the
EVAP canister. If the purge flow volume is less than the
standard value, check the vacuum port and the vacuum
hose for clogging. Also check the EVAP purge solenoid. If
the purge flow volume is at the standard value, replace the
