Dead-end reference in maintenance manual
Okay, so I'm launching into the 7500 mile service.
Looking in the maintenance manual, I come upon page 2-22, "Valve Clearance Inspection" "Remove Cylinder Head Cover (see Cylinder Head Cover Removal in the Engine Top End Chapter" flip flip flip flip Page 5-14, Cylinder Head Cover Removal: "Drain the Coolant (see Coolant Change in the Periodic Maintenance Section)" flip flip flip flip... flip flip flip... flip flip... flip... Um... WHAT coolant change procedure? Not in the section on the cooling system starting on page 2-20. Okay, must be in the Cooling System section, right? Yep, right there in the contents. Page 4-8. Flip flip flip flip "Coolant Draining: Refer to Coolant Change in the Periodic Maintenance chapter" Grrrrrrrr......... Flip flip flip flip Flip flip flip Flip flip Flip AHA! It's not with the rest of the cooling system stuff. It's over on page 2-44. Which makes sense.... how? Why not just tell us which page the blasted procedure is on? |
