1.6.28. Replacement of cooling liquid

At the cold engine remove a radiator stopper, slowly rotating it to the left against the stop. Turning a stopper, do not press it. Wait until pressure decreases, and continue to rotate a cover counterclockwise, already pressing it.

ATTENTION It is dangerous to open a stopper of a radiator or a stopper of a tank (at the diesel) when liquid heating because she, boiling, together with steam can escape under pressure from under a stopper. Wait until temperature goes down.

Remove a tank, having raised it, and merge completely liquid.

Weaken a splivny stopper in the bottom of a radiator and merge liquid in suitable capacity.

Install a tank back and fill it with cooling liquid to the mark FULL.

Tighten a drain stopper of a radiator.

Fill a radiator with antifreeze and close a stopper.

Let's the engine work idling 2–3 min. to get rid of air in the cooling system.

Kill the engine.

Again check liquid level in a radiator. If level went down, add cooling liquid.

ATTENTION During filling of the cooling system the car has to stand horizontally.
