1D – 2 ENGINE COOLING
DAEWOO M-150 BL2
DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The cooling system maintains the engine temperature at
an efficient level during all engine operating conditions.
When the engine is cold the cooling system cools the
engine slowly or not at all. This slow cooling of the en-
gine allows the engine to warm up quickly.
The cooling system includes a radiator(a) and cooling
fan(b), a thermostat and housing(c), a coolant pump(d),
a coolant pump drive belt and coolant hose. The timing
belt drives the coolant pump.
All components must function properly in order for the
cooling system to operate. The coolant pump draws the
coolant from the radiator. The coolant then circulates
through water jackets in the engine block and the cylin-
der head, distributor case(e), throttle body(f). When the
coolant reaches the operating temperature of the ther-
mostat, the thermostat opens. The coolant then goes
back to the radiator where it cools.
This system directs some coolant through the hoses to
the heater core(g). This provides for heating and de-
frosting. The surge tank(h) is connected to the radiator
and throttle body to recover the coolant displaced by ex-
pansion from the high temperatures. The surge tank
maintains the correct coolant level.
The cooling system for this vehicle has no radiator cap
and drain cock. The coolant is added to the cooling sys-tem through the surge tank. To drain the cooling system,
disconnect the lower radiator hose and drain the cool-
ant.
RADIATOR
This vehicle has a lightweight tube-and-fin aluminum ra-
diator.
SURGE TANK
The surge tank is a transparent plastic reservoir, similar
to the windshield washer reservoir.
The surge tank is connected to the radiator and throttle
body by a hose. As the vehicle is driven, the engine cool-
ant heats and expands. The portion of the engine cool-
ant displaced by this expansion flows from the radiator
into the surge tank. The air trapped in the radiator is de-
gassed into the surge tank.
When the engine is stops, the engine coolant cools and
contracts. The displaced engine coolant is then drawn
back into the radiator. This keeps the radiator filled with
the coolant to the desired level at all times and increases
the cooling efficiency.
Maintain the coolant level between the MIN and the
MAX marks on the surge tank when the system is cold.

DIAGNOSTIC INFORMATION AND PROCEDURE
COOLANT LEAKS TEST
1. Remove the surge tank cap after the engine cools.
2. Check the coolant level.
3. Install a suitable cooling system pressure tester(b) to
the surge tank filler neck using the adapter(a) and
pressurize (110–120 kPa (16.0–17.4 psi)).
4. Check the coolant leaks on the hoses and connec-
tions during 2 minutes.
5. If the leak is checked, replace the parts or repair the
connections.
D102D301
SURGE TANK CAP TEST
The surge tank cap(c) is equipped with the pressure
valve(d) and the vacuum valve(e). Therefore, the surge
tank cap maintains proper pressure. And The surge tank
cap protects the system from high-pressure by opening
a pressure valve, and protects the coolant hoses from
collapsing because of a vacuum.
1. Wash any sludge from the surge tank cap and the
valve seat of the vacuum pressure valve for the surge
tank cap.
2. Check for any damage or deformity to the vacuum
pressure valve for the surge tank cap. If any damage
or deformity is found, replace the cap.
3. Install a suitable cooling system pressure tester(b) to
the cap using the Adapter(a).
4. Pull the vacuum pressure valve to the open position.
If the surge tank cap does not seal properly, replace
the surge tank cap.
5. Pressurize the cap to 90 to 120kPa (13 to 17psi).
6. Wait 10 seconds and check the pressure held by the
tank cap tester.
7. If the pressure held by the cooling system pressure
tester falls below 80kPa (11.6psi) replace the surge
tank cap.
D102D302
THERMOSTAT TEST
1. Remove the thermostat(f) from the vehicle. Refer
to“Thermostat” in this section.
2. Make sure the valve spring is tight when the thermo-
stat is fully closed. If the spring is not tight, replace the
thermostat.
3. Suspend the thermostat and a thermometer in a pan
of 50/50mixture of ethylene glycol and water. Do not
let the thermostat or the thermometer rest on the bot-
tom of the pan because the uneven concentration of
heat on the bottom could result in inaccurate temper-
ature measurements.
4. Heat the pan on a burner.
5. Use the thermometer to measure the temperature of
the heated solution.
6. The thermostat should begin to open at 82°C (180°F)
and it should be fully open at 95°C (203.4°F) and it
should be fully close at 80°C (176.4°F). If it does not
open or close at these temperature, replace the ther-
mostat. Also, the thermostat rod’s stroke from the ini-
tially open to the fully open should be 8mm (0.31 in.).

crankcase. The fresh air is mixed with blowby gases
which then pass through a vacuum hose into the intake
manifold.
Periodically inspect the hoses and the clamps. Replace
any crankcase ventilation components as required.
A restricted or plugged PCV hose may cause the follow-
ing conditions:
Rough idle
Stalling or low idle speed

ENGINE COOLANT TEMPERATURE
SENSOR
The Engine Coolant Temperature (ECT) sensor is a
thermistor (a resistor which changes value based on
temperature) mounted in the engine coolant stream.
Low coolant temperature produces a high resistance
(100,000 ohms at –40C [–40F]) while high tempera-
ture causes low resistance (70 ohms at 130C [266F]).
The Engine Control Module (ECM) supplies 5 volts to
the ECT sensor through a resistor in the ECM and mea-
sures the change in voltage. The voltage will be high
when the engine is cold and low when the engine is hot.
By measuring the change in voltage, the ECM can de-
termine the coolant temperature. The engine coolant
temperature affects most of the systems that the ECM
controls. A failure in the ECT sensor circuit should set a
Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) P0117 or P0118. Re-
member, these DTC indicate a failure in the ECT circuit,
so proper use of the chart will lead either to repairing a
wiring problem or to replacing the sensor to repair a
problem properly.
THROTTLE POSITION SENSOR
The Throttle Position (TP) sensor is a potentiometer
connected to the throttle shaft of the throttle body. The
TP sensor electrical circuit consists of a 5-volt supply
line and a ground line, both provided by the Engine Con-
trol Module (ECM). The ECM calculates the throttle
position by monitoring the voltage on this signal line. The
TP sensor output changes as the accelerator pedal is
moved, changing the throttle valve angle. At a closed
throttle position, the output of the TP sensor is low,
about 0.4–0.8 volt. As the throttle valve opens, the out-
put increases so that, at Wide Open Throttle (WOT), the
output voltage will be about 4.5–5 volts.The ECM can determine fuel delivery based on throttle
valve angle (driver demand). A broken or loose TP sen-
sor can cause intermittent bursts of fuel from the injector
and an unstable idle, because the ECM thinks the
throttle is moving. A problem in any of the TP sensor cir-
cuits should set a Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC)
P0122 or P0123. Once the DTC is set, the ECM will sub-
stitute a default value for the TP sensor and some ve-
hicle performance will return.
CATALYST MONITOR OXYGEN
SENSORS
Three-way catalytic converters are used to control emis-
sions of hydrocarbons (HC), carbon monoxide (CO),
and oxides of nitrogen (NOx). The catalyst within the
converters promotes a chemical reaction. This reaction
oxidizes the HC and CO present in the exhaust gas and
converts them into harmless water vapor and carbon
dioxide. The catalyst also reduces NOx by converting it
to nitrogen. The ECM can monitor this process using the
oxygen sensor (O2S) and heated oxygen sensor
(HO2S). These sensors produce an output signal which
indicates the amount of oxygen present in the exhaust
gas entering and leaving the three-way converter. This
indicates the catalyst’s ability to efficiently convert ex-
haust gasses. If the catalyst is operating efficiently, the
O2S signals will be more active than the signals pro-
duced by the HO2S. The catalyst monitor sensors oper-
ate the same way as the fuel control sensors. The
sensors’ main function is catalyst monitoring, but they
also have a limited role in fuel control. If a sensor output
indicates a voltage either above or below the 450 mV
bias voltage for an extended period of time, the Engine
Control Module (ECM) will make a slight adjustment to
fuel trim to ensure that fuel delivery is correct for catalyst
monitoring.
A problem with the O2S circuit will set DTC P0131,
P0132, P0133 or P0134 depending on the special condi-
tion. A problem with the HO2S signal will set DTC
P0137, P0138, P0140 or P0141 depending on the spe-
cial condition.
A fault in the heated oxygen sensor (HO2S) heater ele-
ment or its ignition feed or ground will result in lower oxy-
gen sensor response. This may cause incorrect catalyst
monitor diagnostic results.
ELECTRIC EXHAUST GAS
RECIRCULATION VALVE
The Electric Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EEGR) system
is used on engines equipped with an automatic trans-
axle to lower oxides of nitrogen (NOx) emission levels
caused by high combustion temperature. The main ele-
ment of the system is the EEGR valve, controlled electri-
cally by the Engine Control Module (ECM). The EEGR
valve feeds small amounts of exhaust gas into the intake

Remember, a fuel trim Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC)
may be triggered by a list of vehicle faults. Make use of
all information available (other DTCs stored, rich or lean
condition, etc.) when diagnosing a fuel trim fault.
COMPREHENSIVE COMPONENT
MONITOR DIAGNOSTIC OPERATION
Comprehensive component monitoring diagnostics are
required to monitor emissions-related input and output
powertrain components.
Input Components
Input components are monitored for circuit continuity
and out-of-range values. This includes rationality check-
ing. Rationality checking refers to indicating a fault when
the signal from a sensor does not seem reasonable, i.e.
Throttle Position (TP) sensor that indicates high throttle
position at low engine loads or Manifold Absolute Pres-
sure (MAP) voltage. Input components may include, but
are not limited to, the following sensors:
Vehicle Speed Sensor (VSS).
Crankshaft Position (CKP) sensor.
Throttle Position (TP) sensor.
Engine Coolant Temperature (ECT) sensor.
Camshaft Position (CMP) sensor.
MAP sensor.
In addition to the circuit continuity and rationality check,
the ECT sensor is monitored for its ability to achieve a
steady state temperature to enable closed loop fuel con-
trol.
Output Components
Output components are diagnosed for proper response
to control module commands. Components where func-
tional monitoring is not feasible will be monitored for cir-
cuit continuity and out-of-range values if applicable.
Output components to be monitored include, but are not
limited to the following circuit:
Idle Air Control (IAC) Motor.
Controlled Canister Purge Valve.
A/C relays.
Cooling fan relay.
VSS output.
Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) control.
Refer to “Engine Control Module” and the sections on
Sensors in General Descriptions.
Passive and Active Diagnostic Tests
A passive test is a diagnostic test which simply monitors
a vehicle system or component. Conversely, an activetest, actually takes some sort of action when performing
diagnostic functions, often in response to a failed pas-
sive test. For example, the Electric Exhaust Gas Recir-
culation (EEGR) diagnostic active test will force the
EEGR valve open during closed throttle deceleration
and/or force the EEGR valve closed during a steady
state. Either action should result in a change in manifold
pressure.
Intrusive Diagnostic Tests
This is any Euro On-Board test run by the Diagnostic
Management System which may have an effect on ve-
hicle performance or emission levels.
Warm-Up Cycle
A warm-up cycle means that engine at temperature
must reach a minimum of 70C (160F) and rise at least
22C (40F) over the course of a trip.
Freeze Frame
Freeze Frame is an element of the Diagnostic Manage-
ment System which stores various vehicle information at
the moment an emissions-related fault is stored in
memory and when the MIL is commanded on. These
data can help to identify the cause of a fault.
Failure Records
Failure Records data is an enhancement of the EOBD
Freeze Frame feature. Failure Records store the same
vehicle information as does Freeze Frame, but it will
store that information for any fault which is stored in
Euro On-Board memory, while Freeze Frame stores in-
formation only for emission-related faults that command
the MIL on.
COMMON EOBD TERMS
Diagnostic
When used as a noun, the word diagnostic refers to any
Euro On-Board test run by the vehicle’s Diagnostic Man-
agement System. A diagnostic is simply a test run on a
system or component to determine if the system or com-
ponent is operating according to specification. There are
many diagnostics, shown in the following list:
Misfire.
Oxygen sensors (O2S)
Heated oxygen sensor (HO2S)
Electric Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EEGR)
Catalyst monitoring
Enable Criteria
The term “enable criteria” is engineering language for
the conditions necessary for a given diagnostic test to
run. Each diagnostic has a specific list of conditions
which must be met before the diagnostic will run.
“Enable criteria” is another way of saying “conditions re-
quired.”
