DRAINING
WARNING
DO NOT remove radiator cap or drain antifreeze unless engine is cold. Remove radiator cap in two steps.
First, place a thick cloth over cap and slowly turn cap left to first stop. Pause and allow pressure to escape.
Turn cap further left until it can be removed. This is a pressurized cooling system and escaping steam, hot
