DESCRIPTION
This engine utilizes a pressurized forced circulation cooling system which i\
ncludes a hermostat equipped
with a by±pass valve mounted on the inlet side. The cooling system is composed of the water jacket (inside the cylinder bl\
ock and cylinderhead), radiator,
water pump, thermostat, cooling fan, hoses and other components.

COOLIING SYSTEM Description

Page 2789 of 4087
Coolant which is heated in the water jacket is pumped to the radiator, through which a cooling fan blows
air to cool the coolant as it passes through. Coolant which has been coo\
led is then sent back to the engine by
the water pump, where it cools the engine. The water jacket is a network of channels in the shell of the cylinder bloc\
k and cylinderhead through which
coolant passes. It is designed to provide adequate cooling through the cylinders and combus\
tion chambers
which become heated during engine operation.
RADIATOR The radiator performs the function of cooling the coolant which has pass\
ed through the waterjacket and
become hot, and it is mounted in the front of the vehicle. The radiator consis\
ts of an upper tank and lower tank,
and a core which connects the two tanks. The upper tank contains the inlet \
for coolant from the water jacket
and the filler inlet. It also has a hose attached through which excess cool\
ant or steam can flow. The lower tank
contains the outlet for coolant and drain plug. The core contains many t\
ubes through which coolant flows from
the upper tank to the lower tank as well as cooling fins which radiate heat\
away from the coolant in the tubes.
The air sucked through the radiator by the cooling fan, as well as the wind generated by the ve\
hicle's travel,
passes through the radiator, cooling the coolant. Models with automatic transmission include an aut\
omatic
transmission fluid cooler built into the lower tank of the radiator. A cooling fan is mounted behind radiator to assist
the flow of air through the radiator. When the coolant temperature is low, the fan operates slowly to help the warm
up, and when the coolant temperature becomes high, the fan speed is increas\
ed to provide the air flow required
for cooling.
RADIATOR CAP (on Reservoir Tank)
The radiator cap is a pressure type cap which seals the radiator, resulting in pressurization of the radiator
as the coolant expands. The pressurization prevents the coolant from boi\
ling even when the coolant tempera-
ture exceeds 100 5C (212 5F). A relief valve (pressurization valve) and a vacuum valve (negati\
ve pressure valve)
are built into the radiator cap. The relief valve opens and lets steam esca\
pe through the overflow pipe when
the pressure generated inside the cooling system exceeds the limit (coolant temperature: 110±120 5C
(230±248 5F) pressure; 29.4±98.1 kPa (0.3±1.0 kgf/cm2, 4.3±14.2 psi)). The vacuum v\
alve opens to alleviate
the vacuum which develops in the coolant system after the engine is stopped\
and the coolant temperature
drops.
RESERVOIR TANK The purpose of the reservoir tank is to catch coolant overflows created by \
volumetrix expansion when the
coolant temperature increases. The cap of the reservoir tank is a pressure type\
which prevents deterioration
of the LLC (Long Life Coolant) caused by contact with atmospheric air, increases vaporization performance and
reduces loss of the coolant volume.
WATER PUMP The water pump is mounted on the front of the cylinder block and driven by t\
he reverse side of the timing
belt.
THERMOSTAT The thermostat has a wax type by±pass valve and is mounted in the wat\
er inlet housing. The thermostat
begins to open at the temperature of 80 5C (180 5F). When the coolant temperature is low, the valve closes to
prevent coolant flow to the radiator, thus permitting the engine to warm up rapidly. When the by±pass valve
opens the by±pass circuit, the engine coolant continues to circulate \
inside the engine, quickly and uniformly
warming up to the appropriate temperature. When the coolant temperature is high\
, the valve opens and coolant
flows to the radiator where it is cooled. When the wax inside the thermostat \
is heated, it expands and thus
creates pressure which overpowers the force of the spring which keeps the valve\
closed. When the wax cools,
its contraction causes the force of the spring to take effect once more, closing the valve.
