Cleaning and Inspection
Midland
Maintenance is required during both the freeze sea-
son and the off season to keep the alcohol evapora-
tor in good working order.
Off Season
During the off season, drain the unit of alcohol. At
regular engine service intervals, open the drain cock
to remove moisture from the alcohol evaporator. Be-
fore reactivating the evaporator for the next freeze
season, drain, disassemble, inspect, and steam-
clean the unit of any sludge that may have accumu-
lated. It is advisable to replace any rubber parts
when assembling the alcohol evaporator. Perform
this service just before the freeze season.
