Correct answer
Keep the engine's external cooling fins clean
Keeping the engine’s external cooling fins clean helps heat transfer to the air. Dirt covering or obstructing them impairs that function. Clean with the engine cold and follow manufacturer instructions without damaging the fins. The described system has no coolant level or fan belt to check; other engine maintenance remains necessary.
