WARNING: WHEN RELIEVING COOLING SYSTEM PRESSURE, COVER THE EXPANSION TANK CAP WITH A THICK CLOTH TO PREVENT THE POSSIBILITY OF SCALDING. FAILURE TO FOLLOW THESE INSTRUCTIONS CAN RESULT IN PERSONAL INJURY.

Removal:
1. Turn the expansion cap counterclockwise a quarter turn to relieve the cooling system pressure.
2. Retighten the expansion tank cap.
3. Remove the air cleaner outlet tube.
