Precautions For Liquid GasketEBS01276
LIQUID GASKET APPLICATION PROCEDURE
1. Remove old liquid gasket adhering to the liquid gasket application surface and the mating surface.
Remove liquid gasket completely from the liquid gasket application surface, mounting bolts, and bolt
holes.
2. Wipe the liquid gasket application surface and the mating surface with white gasoline (lighting and heating
use) to remove adhering moisture, grease and foreign materials.
3. Attach liquid gasket tube to the tube presser (special service
tool).
Use Genuine Liquid Gasket or equivalent.
Within five minutes of liquid gasket application, install the mat-
ing component.
If liquid gasket protrudes, wipe it off immediately.
Do not retighten mounting bolts or nuts after the installation.
After 30 minutes or more have passed from the installation, fill
engine oil and engine coolant.

LEVEL CHECK
Check if the reservoir tank engine coolant level is within “MIN” to
“MAX” when engine is cool.
Adjust engine coolant level as necessary.
CHECKING RADIATOR SYSTEM FOR LEAKS
To check for leaks, apply pressure to the cooling system with the
radiator cap tester (commercial service tool) and the radiator
cap tester adapter (special service tool).
WARNING:
Do not remove radiator cap when engine is hot. Serious
burns could occur from high pressure engine coolant
escaping from radiator.
CAUTION:
Higher test pressure than specified may cause radiator
damage.
NOTE:
In a case that engine coolant decreases, replenish radiator with engine coolant.
If anything is found, repair or replace damaged parts.
Changing Engine CoolantEBS00BAZ
WARNING:
To avoid being scalded, do not change engine coolant when engine is hot.
Wrap a thick cloth around cap and carefully remove radiator cap. First, turn radiator cap a quarter
of a turn to release built-up pressure. Then turn the cap all the way.
DRAINING ENGINE COOLANT
1. Remove engine undercover.
2. Open radiator drain plug at the bottom of radiator, and remove
radiator cap.
CAUTION:
Be careful not to allow engine coolant to contact drive
belts.
Cover the exhaust tube heat shield to prevent from
splashing engine coolant.
When draining all engine coolant in the system, open water drain plug on engine cylinder block. Refer
to EM-231, "
DISASSEMBLY".
3. Remove reservoir tank, drain engine coolant, then clean reservoir tank.
4. Check drained engine coolant for contaminants such as rust, corrosion or discoloration.

If contaminated, flush engine cooling system. Refer to CO-34, "FLUSHING COOLING SYSTEM" .
REFILLING ENGINE COOLANT
1. Install reservoir tank, and radiator drain plug.
CAUTION:
Be sure to clean radiator drain plug and install with new O-ring.
If water drain plug on cylinder block is removed, close and tighten it. Refer to EM-235, "ASSEM-
BLY" .
2. Remove air relief plug.
3. Fill radiator and reservoir tank to the specified level.
Pour engine coolant through engine coolant filler neck
slowly of less than 2 (1-3/4 lmp qt) a minute to allow air
in system to escape.
Use Genuine Nissan Anti-freeze Coolant or equivalent
mixed with water (distilled or demineralized). Refer to
MA-17, "
RECOMMENDED FLUIDS AND LUBRICANTS".
When engine coolant overflows air relief hole, install air relief
plug with new copper washer.
4. Install radiator cap.
5. Warm up until opening thermostat and water control valve. Standard for warming-up time is approximately
10 minutes at 3,000 rpm.
Make sure thermostat opening condition by touching radiator hose (lower) to see a flow of warm water.
CAUTION:
Watch water temperature gauge so as not to overheat engine.
6. Stop engine and cool down to less than approximately 50°C(122°F).
Cool down using a fan to reduce the time.
If necessary, refill radiator up to filler neck with engine coolant.
7. Refill reservoir tank to “MAX” level line with engine coolant.
8. Repeat steps 3 through 6 two or more times with radiator cap installed until engine coolant level no longer
drops.
9. Check cooling system for leaks with engine running.

10. Warm up engine, and check for sound of engine coolant flow while running engine from idle up to 3,000
rpm with heater temperature controller set at several position between “COOL” and “WARM”.
Sound may be noticeable at heater unit.
11. Repeat step 10 three times.
12. If sound is heard, bleed air from cooling system by repeating steps 3 through 6 until engine coolant level
no longer drops.
FLUSHING COOLING SYSTEM
1. Install reservoir tank if removed, and radiator drain plug.
CAUTION:
Be sure to clean drain plug and install with new O-ring.
If water drain plug on cylinder block is removed, close and tighten it. Refer to EM-235, "ASSEM-
BLY" .
2. Fill radiator with water until water spills from the air relief hole, then close air relief plug. Fill radiator and
reservoir tank with water and reinstall radiator cap.
3. Run engine and warm it up to normal operating temperature.
4. Rev engine two or three times under no-load.
5. Stop engine and wait until it cools down.
6. Drain water from the system. Refer to CO-32, "
DRAINING ENGINE COOLANT" .
7. Repeat steps 1 through 6 until clear water begins to drain from radiator.
