CAUTION
When changing engine coolant, use mixture of
50% water and 50% anti–freeze for regions
where ambient temperatures fall lower than –16
degrees C (3 degrees F) in winter and mixture of
70% water and 30% anti–freeze for regions
where ambient temperatures do not fall lower
than –16 degrees C (3 degrees F).
Even in regions where no freezing temperature
is anticipated, a mixture of 70% water and 30%
anti–freeze should be used for the purpose of
corrosion protection and lubrication.
COOLING SYSTEM HOSES AND CONNEC-
TIONS INSPECTIONS
1) Visually inspect cooling system hoses for any evi-
dence of leakage and cracks. Examine them for dam-
age, and check connection clamps for tightness.
2) Replace all hoses which show evidence of leakage,
cracks or other damage. Replace all clamps which can-
not maintain proper tightness.
EXHAUST PIPES AND MOUNTINGS
INSPECTION
!
WARNING
To avoid danger of being burned, do not touch
exhaust system when system is hot. Any ser-

When carrying out periodic maintenance, or the
vehicle is raised for other service, check exhaust sys-
tem as follows:
S
Check rubber mountings for damage, deterio-
ration, and out of position.
S
Check exhaust system for leakage, loose con-
nections, dents and damages. If nuts or bolts
are loose, tighten them to specification. Refer
to below chart for torque specifications.
S
Check nearby body areas for damaged, mis-
sing, or mispositioned parts, open seams,
holes, loose connections or other defects
which could permit exhaust fumes to seep into
the vehicle.
