SERVICE INFORMATION
Here's a news flash for those of you who have received the ATF Cooler Cleaner (P/N GHTTTCF6H)! The cooler cleaner uses 9.5 gallons of ATF-Z1, not 8 gallons as stated in S/B 89-015, ATF Cooler Cleaner . This allows for circulation through the hoses and the two spin-on filters while keeping the proper fluid level in the tank for the heater to work. This correction will be made in ISIS.
Our thanks go to Bryan Brown of Northwest Honda in Owings Mills, MD. He sent us an ISIS feedback report alerting us to this error. Thanks, Bryan.
