REMOVAL
WATER PUMP
1. Drain the engine coolant.
System is under high pressure when the engine is hot. To avoid danger of releasing scalding engine coolant,
remove the cap only when the engine is cool.
2. Remove drive belt(A).
3.Remove the timing belt.
4. Remove the water pump(A) and gasket(B).
WATER TEMPERATURE CONTROL ASSEMBLY
1.Drain the engine coolant.
2. Remove the air cleaner assembly.
3. Disconnect the radiator upper and lower hose(A, B).

4.Disconnect the ECT(Engine Coolant Temperature) sensor connector.
5. Remove the coolant hose related to the heater hoses and the ECT(Engine Coolant Temperature) system.
6. Remove wiring protector.
7. Remove water temperature control assembly(A) and the gaskets(B).
8.Remove the water pipe(A).
THERMOSTAT
Removal of the thermostat would have an adverse effect, causing a lowering of cooling efficiency. Do not remove
the thermostat, even if the engine tends to overheat.
1. Drain engine coolant so its level is below thermostat.
2. Remove the coolant inlet pitting(A) and the thermostat(B).

RADIATOR
1.Drain the engine coolant.
2. Remove the radiator grille upper cover(A).
3.Remove the radiator support upper member assembly(A) for convenience sake.
The bottom side bolt(A) which can be seen after removing the under cover should be loosened for removal of
the radiator support upper member assembly.

4.Remove the radiator upper and the lower hoses(A).
5.Disconnect transaxle oil cooler hoses(A).(Refer to TR group)
6.Disconnect the radiator fan connectors(A,B).

8.Separate the condenser from the radiator assembly by removing the bolts.
9. Remove the radiator assembly.
10. Remove the radiator cooling fan.
