Visually inspect the upper radiator hose for pressure marks and traces of rubbing at the closest point of contact to the oil filter housing cast boss (see illustration). If traces of rubbing are found, the upper radiator hose must be replaced with the new style hose (See Parts Information).NOTE: A modified hose was used in production from approximately mid-November 1995 through June 1996, which included an extra rubber pad attached to the outside of the hose in the critical area. If traces of rubbing are found on the rubber pad area of this type of hose, it must also be replaced with the new style hose. Visually inspect the oil filter housing for any sharp edges or burrs on the casting boss. If a sharp edge or casting burr is found on the boss, it must be removed using sand paper or a fine file.

Mark/B-LOC: For most applications, installation according to the manufacturer''s instructions is all that is needed Tool for a permanent, fully adjustable, and removable backlash-free connection. For keyless locking device Cluplers connections in extreme operating environments, use packing grease and inexpensive Air cover plates to keep out dirt, moisture, and other corrosive elements.Andrew/Whittet-Higgins: Continually educate technicians on quality and working efficiency. A balance of quality and quantity will maximize the life expectancy of each assembly Tool and the enterprise as a whole.Blair/Ruland: When servicing equipment, inspect the locking device for Cluplers any signs of slipping and tighten the clamping screws to the recommended seating torque when necessary.When replacing a locking device, end users should follow the proper bolt-tightening pattern. Tighten the same way you would mount the wheels on a car: Tighten opposing screws, working your way around the locking device. This reduces misalignment and provides the best holding power.
