Notice: Do not reuse the existing retaining clips removed from the cooler line
connector fittings. The retaining clips being put into the cooler line connector
fittings must be new.

fittings. Failure to properly install the connector clips could cause the
cooler lines to come loose and cause damage to the engine and/or the transmission.

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.
