5. Once the gauge has reached the desired
vacuum level and there is no drop in gauge
reading, turn the refill valve (red lever) on and
the coolant will start to fill the cooling system.
A system without a vacuum leak will fill in
about 3 to 4 minutes.
CAUTION
If the refill tube end comes out of the coolant
during the refill process, air will be pulled
into the system and the entire procedure will
need to be repeated. Kindly ensure to
maintain sufficient amount of coolant in the
container to avoid this issue.
6. Once the vacuum gauge reaches “0”, turn
refill valve off (red lever), check the amount
of coolant was added to system, if necessary
top-up the coolant to the specified level and
refit the pressure cap.
7. Start the engine and run until normal
operating temperature is reached. Allow to
cool and top-up coolant if necessary.
NOTE
If the amount of coolant specified for the
vehicle was not added to the system, repeat
the procedure from step 1.
METHOD 2
1. Vehicle condition And Parking.
Park the vehicle on flat level surface.
Allow the vehicle to cool down to workable
temperature (preferably to ambient
temperature).
Place ta clean tray just below the drain plug
located at bottom of radiator.
2. Drain coolant from radiator.
Open the pressure cap & drain plug and
allow the coolant to drain out into the
container.
Blow in the pressurized air through
pressure cap opening till all the coolant is
drain out & close pressure cap.
3. Remove coolant from water pump, heater
and cooling system hoses.
Open the heater top hose & blow
pressurized air in the heater top hose
thermostat side (block the heater inlet part
towards heater coil with the help of plug).
Repeat same operation in reverse direction
(heater inlet towards heater coil side air will
be blown & thermostat side will be closed).
Connect the heater top hose. Close the
drain plug.
4. Initial coolant filling through pressure cap
