Transmission oil cooler – cleaning
<FM65F automatic transmission vehicles>
If a large amount of dirt or mud adheres to the front
of the oil cooler, it will reduce the oil cooler's cooling
performance and cause rust.
Form time to time, wash with water the front of the
oil cooler and the cover that's attached to it.
The oil coolers are located on both sides of the
Z12142
vehicle.

Do not use a hard brush or sharp implement
for cleaning. Doing so could result in dam-
age to the oil cooler.

Try not to splash water on the motor of the
oil cooler's electric cooling fan.
•
Do not use a high-pressure cleaning equip-
ment. Damage to the oil cooler may result.
