Additional Notes

  • The Shibaura GT 141 and GT 161 share an identical cooling system capacity of 3.3 liters, indicating a closely related engine architecture across both models in the 2000-2008 range.
  • A 3.3-liter coolant capacity is a relatively modest figure, consistent with the small-displacement engines found in compact utility and garden tractor applications.
  • The check interval for the cooling system is set at every 10 operating hours, a short cycle that reflects the importance of catching early coolant loss or contamination in equipment subject to variable load conditions.
  • The coolant change interval is specified at 12 months regardless of operating hours, meaning calendar time governs the drain-and-fill schedule rather than accumulated engine runtime alone.
  • Both the GT 141 and GT 161 carry normal-use designations for the cooling system specifications, meaning the 10-hour check and 12-month change intervals apply under standard operating conditions.
