Removal Procedure
- Remove the reservoir hose
clamp and the hose (1) from the radiator overflow neck fitting.
- Remove the coolant recovery reservoir nuts (2) from the shock
tower studs.
- Remove the coolant recovery reservoir (3) from the lower retainer
and the shock tower studs .
- Drain the coolant recovery reservoir. Refer to
Cooling System Draining and Filling
.
Installation Procedure
- Install the coolant recovery
reservoir (3) to the lower retainer and the shock tower studs.
Notice: Use the correct fastener in the correct location. Replacement fasteners
must be the correct part number for that application. Fasteners requiring
replacement or fasteners requiring the use of thread locking compound or sealant
are identified in the service procedure. Do not use paints, lubricants, or
corrosion inhibitors on fasteners or fastener joint surfaces unless specified.
These coatings affect fastener torque and joint clamping force and may damage
the fastener. Use the correct tightening sequence and specifications when
installing fasteners in order to avoid damage to parts and systems.
- Install the coolant
recovery reservoir nuts (2) to the shock tower studs.
Tighten
Tighten the coolant recovery reservoir nuts to 3.3 N·m
(29 lb in).
- Lubricate the reservoir hose with clean water. Route the hose
to the radiator overflow neck fitting.
- Install the reservoir hose and clamp (1), with the clamp tabs
at the 11 o'clock position, to the radiator overflow fitting on the radiator
filler neck. The hose end must be flush against the radiator filler neck.
Seat the clamp squarely between the radiator filler neck and the flared
end of the fitting.
- Add coolant to the coolant recovery reservoir. Refer to
Cooling System Draining and Filling
.
