Liquid Gasket Application Procedure
a. Use a scraper to remove all traces of old liquid gasket from
mating surfaces and grooves. Also, completely clean any oil
from these areas.
b. Apply a continuous bead of liquid gasket to mating surfaces.
(Use Genuine Liquid Gasket or equivalent.)
+For oil pan, be sure liquid gasket diameter is 3.5 to 4.5 mm
(0.138 to 0.177 in).
+For areas except oil pan, be sure liquid gasket diameter is
2.0 to 3.0 mm (0.079 to 0.118 in).
c. Apply liquid gasket around the inner side of bolt holes (unless
otherwise speci®ed).
d. Assembly should be done within 5 minutes after coating.
e. Wait at least 30 minutes before re®lling engine oil and engine
coolant.

3. Install pressure gauge.
4. Start engine and warm it up to normal operating temperature.
5. Check oil pressure with engine running under no-load.
Engine
rpmApproximate discharge pressure
kPa (bar, kg/cm2, psi)
Idle speed
3,000More than 78 (0.78, 0.8, 11)
318.7 - 424.6
(3.19 - 4.25, 3.25 - 4.33, 46.2 - 61.6)
If difference is extreme, check oil passage and oil pump for oil
leaks.
6. Install oil pressure switch with sealant.
Use proper liquid sealant.
Oil pressure switch:
:10-16Nzm (1.0 - 1.6 kg-m, 87 - 139 in-lb)
Oil Pump
REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION
1. Disconnect battery terminal.
2. Drain engine oil.
3. Drain coolant from radiator and cylinder block. Refer to MA
section (``Changing Engine Coolant'', ``ENGINE MAINTE-
NANCE'').
4. Remove radiator shroud.
5. Remove drive belts. Refer to MA section (``Checking Drive
Belts'').
6. Remove crankshaft pulley and front upper and lower belt cov-
ers. Refer to EM section (``TIMING BELT'').
7. Remove oil pan. Refer to EM section (``OIL PAN'').
8. Remove oil strainer.
9. Remove oil pump assembly.
10. Installation is in reverse order of removal.
+Before installing oil pump, remove liquid gasket from mating
surface of oil pump using a scraper.
Be sure liquid gasket in grooves is also removed.
+Remove liquid gasket from mating surface of cylinder block.
+Clean all traces of liquid gasket using white gasoline.

Oil Cooler
REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION
Install oil cooler as shown in the ®gure.
INSPECTION
1. Check oil cooler element and bracket for cracks.
2. Check coolant inlet of oil cooler for clogging by blowing through
it. Replace it if necessary.
Oil Jet
INSPECTION
1. Push cut-off valve of oil jet bolt with a clean resin or brass rod
and make sure that cut-off valve moves smoothly with proper
repulsion.
2. Make sure that the oil jet passage is not clogged. Clean with a
wire if necessary.

When installing oil jet, align oil jet's boss with hole on cylin-
der block.
Oil jet bolt:
:30-40Nzm (3.1 - 4.1 kg-m, 22 - 30 ft-lb)
Turbocharger
+Before removing water tube, drain coolant ®rst.
+Be careful not to deform tubes.
+After installation, run engine for a few minutes, and check
for oil leakage.

Pull the negative pressure valve to open it. Check that it closes
completely when released.
CHECKING COOLING SYSTEM FOR LEAKS
Apply pressure to the cooling system by means of a tester to check
for leakage.
Testing pressure:
98 kPa (0.98 bar, 1.0 kg/cm
2, 14 psi)
CAUTION:
Use of pressure higher than the speci®ed value may cause
damage to radiator.
Water Pump
CAUTION:
+When removing water pump assembly, be careful not to
get coolant on drive belts.
+Water pump cannot be disassembled and should be
replaced as a unit.
+After installing water pump, connect hose and clamp
securely, then check for leaks using radiator cap tester.
REMOVAL
1. Drain coolant from radiator and cylinder block.
Cylinder block drain plug (Use proper sealant):
:34-44Nzm (3.5 - 4.5 kg-m, 25 - 33 ft-lb)
Refer to MA section (``Changing Engine Coolant'', ``ENGINE
MAINTENANCE'').
2. Remove radiator shroud.
3. Remove drive belts. Refer to MA section (``Checking Drive
Belts'').
4. Remove fan coupling with fan.
5. Remove water pump.

+Cut off tip of nozzle of liquid gasket at point shown in ®gure.
+Use Genuine Liquid Gasket or equivalent.
+Apply a continuous bead of liquid gasket to mating surface of
water inlet.
a. Be sure diameter of liquid gasket is within 2.0 to 3.0 mm (0.079
to 0.118 in).
b. Attach water inlet to cylinder block within ®ve minutes after
applying liquid gasket.
c. After installing water inlet, wait at least 30 minutes before re®ll-
ing coolant and starting engine.
