FLUSHING
6)
Start the engine — run it at idle only and
flush it for at least five minutes. Check the
water pump indicator. A steady stream of wa-
ter must flow. If it does not, shut OFF the en-
gine and investigate. Refer to Engine
Overheating.
DANGER
DO NOT run the engine indoors or without
adequate ventilation or permit exhaust
fumes to accumulate in confined areas.
Engine exhaust contains carbon monoxide
which, if inhaled, can cause serious brain
damage or death.
See your Dealer for a flushing device designed to fit
your engine. Follow manufacturer’s instructions for
installing and using it.
