3. Insert the cone adapter with vacuum gun into

the radiator filler neck (no loss tank) or

coolant aux tank; make sure the refill hose

valve is closed.

4. Turn on the air supply and Press the knob,

allow the vacuum level to reach

approximately 20-25 in Hg (50-60 cm Hg)

and release the knob (The gauge reading

may be slightly less in higher elevations but a

proper vacuum should still be reached within

3 minutes). Let the system hold for 20

seconds to observe for a drop in vacuum.

CAUTION

A drop in the gauge reading within 20

seconds indicates a vacuum leak in the

system, which will require locating and

rectifying the leakage before proceeding

further.

NOTE

During this procedure the radiator hoses will

collapse under the vacuum being generated

- this is normal.
