Warning | Risk of injury. Skin or eye injuries may result when handling hot or glowing objects. | Wear protective gloves, protective clothing and safety glasses, if necessary. | |
Warning | Risk of accident from vehicle starting off by itself when engine running. Risk of injury (bruises and burns) resulting from working on the engine while it is being started or when it is running. | Secure vehicle to prevent it from starting off by itself. Wear closed and snug-fitting work clothes. Do not touch hot or rotating parts. | |
Warning | Risk of injury to skin and eyes suffering scalding from contact with hot coolantspray. Risk of poisoning from swallowing coolant. | Do not open cooling system unless coolant temperature is below 90 °C. Open cap slowly and release the pressure. Do not pour coolant into beverage containers. | |
Flush without a cleaner | |||
1 | Start engine and bring to operating temperature | Coolant temperature approx. 80 °C. | |
2 | Switch off engine and allow to cool off for approx. 30 min | So that any oil present settles in the expansion reservoir. | |
3 | Check whether there is oil is in the coolant expansion reservoir | If there is oil in the coolant expansion reservoir. | |
| |||
Suction off coolant/oil mixture from coolant expansion reservoir and dispose of in an environmentally compatible manner. | |||
4 | Drain off coolant completely | ||
5 | Remove coolant expansion reservoir | ||
6 | Disconnect feed hose and return hose of the heater | Only for engine with heating system. | |
7 | Flush heater with fresh water | Only for engine with heating system. | |
If possible use hot or warm water. | |||
8 | Attach feed hose and return hose of the heater again | Only for engine with heating system. | |
9 | Separate coolant hoses at interfaces between engine and cooler | ||
10 | Flush out engine and cooler with fresh water | If possible use hot or warm water. Dispose of rinsing water in an environmentally friendly way. | |
11 | Attach coolant hoses to interfaces between engine and radiator | ||
Remove oil | |||
12 | Install opened coolant thermostat | ||
| Open coolant thermostat for oil removal | ||
Both cooling circuits are flushed via installation of opened coolant thermostat. | |||
13 | Mix a 3% cleaning solution of the mild-alkali cleaner and fresh water | | |
Mixing ratio: 30 ml cleaner to 1 l fresh water. | |||
Cleaner for engine and cooling system for oil drag-in, 10 l | |||
14 | Flush out coolant expansion reservoir with the 3percent cleaning solution | ||
15 | Install coolant expansion reservoir | ||
16 | Fill engine cooling system with 3-percent cleaning solution | ||
17 | Set heater to maximum heat output | Only for engine with heating system. | |
18 | Start the engine and allow to warm up a 60 °C coolant temperature; hold at this coolant temperature for about 5 min | If necessary, cover radiator to achieve coolant temperature of 60 °C. | |
19 | Switch off engine and allow cooling system to cool down to about 50 °C | ||
20 | Drain cleaning solution completely from the engine cooling system | | |
Dispose of cleaning solution in an environmentally acceptable manner. | |||
Flush after deoiling | |||
21 | Flush engine, radiator and if necessary the heating with fresh water | To flush with fresh water, perform operation steps 6 to 11. | |
22 | Fill and flush engine cooling system with fresh water at least 2 times | | |
Allow engine to run for approx. 5 min during each flushing process. | |||
23 | Check flushing water of last flushing process for oil drag-in | If oil is still present in flushing water, repeat de-oiling. | |
| |||
Perform work from operation step 16. | |||
24 | Check flushing water of last flushing process for acid content with a test strip | Test strips show the pH value. | |
If flushing water of last flushing process does not have neutral pH. | |||
| |||
Repeat engine cooling system flushing with fresh water once. | |||
| |||
25 | Replace an opened coolant thermostat by the previously removed coolant thermostat | ||
Clean coolant thermostat before installation. | |||
26 | Fill in coolant |
