Correct answer
Clean the exterior fins of the engine
Keep the external cooling fins clean and the airflow passages clear, following the manufacturer’s instructions with the engine stopped and cool. The fins help transfer heat to the air; dirt blocking them impairs cooling. This engine has no coolant circuit to top up or the fan belt mentioned in the other answer.
