      Tech Tips


      • If the sides of the lock plate groove are deformed, reassembly of the tank will be impossible. Correct any deformations with pliers.


      • Water leakage will result if the bottom of the lock plate groove is damaged or dented. Repair or replace if necessary.

      Note

      The radiator assembly can be recaulked only twice. After the 2nd time, the radiator core must be replaced.
