52Chapter 6 Cooling System Inspection
(MR7131A, MR7151A, MR7161A)Section 1 System Check1. Check the cooling system for leakage. See (Figure 118)
(a) Fill coolant into radiator. Install the tester onto the radiator cap port.
(b) Start engine.
(c) The water pump pressure is 118Kpa. Check the pressure and ensure the
pressure will not drop. If the pressure drops, check the port, radiator and
water pump for leakage. If there is no leakage, check the heat exchanger,
cylinder block and cylinder head.
2. Check the engine coolant level in the reservoir.
The coolant level should be between low and full marks.
3. Check coolant quality
(a) Remove radiator cap.
To avoid being scalded, do not remove radiator cap while the engine and
radiator are still hot, as fluid and steam can be sprayed under pressure.
(b) There should not be excessive deposits of rust or scale around the radiator,
and the coolant should be free from oil.
(c) Reinstall the radiator cap.
4. Thermostat
Hint:
The thermostat temp indicates the valve opening temperature.
See (Figure 119).
(a) Immerse the thermostat in water and gradually heat the water.
(b) Check the valve opening temperature. Valve opening temperature: 80 -- 84°C
(c) Check the valve lift. See (Figure 120, Figure 121). Valve lift: 8mm or mor at
95°C
(d) Check the thermostat is fully closed when the thermostat is at low temperature
( 77°C).
5. Radiator cap valve
Standard opening pressure: 93-123kpa
Minimum opening pressure: 78kpa
If the opening pressure is less thanminimum, replace the radiator cap.Figure 118

305•Compared with the early used mineral oil, the SW-100 type compressor oil is of comparatively high
moisture absorption performance. If you mix the moisture object with the SW-100 type compressor oil, it
will damage the Refrigeration system. Therefore, after treating the compressor oil or removing the
refrigeration system components, the lid shall be covered immediately to prevent the SW-100 type
compressor oil from absorbing the moisture.Section 5 The Refrigeration System Operation ProcedureI. Refill RefrigerantNotice:•During the filling of refrigerant into the refrigeration system, be careful that it is required to
have the professionals operate under the specified standard and procedure, otherwise it will
reduce the A/C efficiency greatly and even damage the refrigeration system components.
Refill the HFC-134a refrigerant
Refill Preparation1. Install the inflating equipment.
2. Connect the low pressure tube to the low pressure
refill valve.
3. Connect the high pressure tube to the high pressure
refill valve.
4. Connect the intermediate tube to the vacuum pump.Vacuumization:1. Open all valves.Notice:•Close all valves of the manifold gauge immediately after the vacuum pump stops operation. If
the valve is still open after the vacuum pump stops operation, then the vacuum pump oil will
return to refrigerant circulation loop and reduce the A/C efficiency.2. Start the vacuum pump and run it for 15min.
3. Check if the readings at high and low sides of the manifold gauge fall within the range of -101 kPa{-760
mmHg }. Close the valves of the manifold gauge.Check the air tightness:1. Stop the vacuum pump and have it wait for 5min.
2. Check the high pressure side of the manifold gauge and the reading at the low pressure side.
•Check for leakage if the reading changes and vacuumize it again.
•Refill the new HRC-134a refrigerant if the reading doesn't change.To low pressure fill valveLow Pressure GaugeHigh Pressure

313Section 7 A/C System Faults Check & TroubleshootingI. A/C System Faults CheckInspection shall be made to isolate the fault area and its cause when the fault of A/C system occurs, and then
specific service could be performed. Inspect the whole system before re-using A/C system after a long term
of storage.
First step is initial inspection by direct "see, listen and touch". Test the system with the leak detector if
necessary.
1. Check the Refrigeration System
Under the normal condition, the low pressure pipeline of the A/C refrigeration system takes on a status of lowtemperature and the high pressure pipeline takes on a status of high temperature, see Figure 16. Based onthis rule, you can arrive at the initial judgement about the fault area and its cause by touching the refrigeration
system pipeline and elements to feel the surface temperature with your hand.
1High pressure area: compressor outlet
condenser receiver/drier expansion valve
inlet, its temperature change trend is from warm
to hot. If the temperature change is not this trend,
but instead some part is extremely hot (e.g.
condenser surface), it indcates that the part is
faulty and the radiation is not good; if some part is
extremely cold (e.g. receiver/drier) or there is frost
(e.g. at expansion valve inlet), it indicates that the
part is faulty and the pipe may be blocked.
2Low pressure area: expansion valve outlet
evaporator compressor inlet, its temperature
change trend is from cool to cold, If the
temperature change is not this trend, it indcates that the part is faulty.
3Compressor: compressor inlet and outlet high & low side shall have apparent feel of temperature difference,
if there is no temperature difference, it indicates that there is leakage in the system and the refrigerant
has leaked.
2. Check the Leakage Area
1Observe all connecting areas of the refrigeration system or condenser surface for oil stain, if there is oil
stain, it indicates that the the refrigerant is leaking (refrigerant and freezing oil leak simultaneously,
refrigerant volatilize after leakage and leave the freezing oil remained to be oil stain).
2Apply the soap water to the connecting area, if soap bubble occurs, it indicates that there is leakage.
3Check with instrument, the common instrument is halogen leak detector. When using the halogen leak
detector for check, the key is the propane flame color depending on which the judgement is made. When
there is no leakage, the flame color remains unchanged, when there is a little leakage, the flame is
greenish, when there is large leakage, the flame is bluish or purple.CoolColdHotWarmExpension

314Have a focus inspection on the following area:
a. Each pipe union joint and valve connection.
b. All hose, especially near the pipe union.
c. Compressor shaft seal, front and rear cover, gasket, oil fill plug.
d. Area on the surface of the condenser and evaporator that is scratched, bruised or damaged.
e. Expansion valve inlet and outlet connection and temperature sensor element and the welding position.
3. Check the Refrigerant
Observing from the sight glass, you may understand the refrigerant status and analyze the possible faults:

383Section 5 Painting Technique after Body RepairPartial painting is needed when the vehicle crashes, parts rust, surface bubbles and color changes. The
painting techniques after repair are as follows:I. Base Treatment (Pre-Treatment)1. Peel the layer of painting and the coating on the panel.
2. Remove the edges and corners and polish the steel surface where painting peeled and the paint film at the
edges.
3. Cleaning and degrease. Clear up the dust and dirt and remove the oil, etc with degreaser.II. Base Coating Procedure1. Apply primer. Apple air drying type paint on the metal surface.
2. Air dry or heat dry (infrared drier) the primer.
3. Apply putty. Apply air drying type oil-base putty and Polyester-base putty on the panel surface that needs
repairing.
4. Air dry or heat dry the putty.
5.Manually polish the putty to make it smooth.
6. Manually polish with water to clear up tracks caused by sand paper.
7. Clear up the dust and the greasy dirt, and dry the putty polishing liquid.
8. Clean the greasy dirt on the polishing surface.
9. Use shield cover or paper to keep out the area that need not repairing.III.Intermediate Coating Painting1. Paint the second primer.
2. Air dry or heat dry.
3. Apply putty, and let it dry. Then look for sandhole or sand paper tracks.
4. Manually polish with water.
5. Clean it and let it dry by air. (The times of applying putty and polishing depends on the smoothness of the
surface)IV. Preparation For Applying Final Paint1. Shielding. Shield the area that needs not painting with paper.
2. Clear up the dust and degrease. Clear up the dust and oil on the painting surface.
3. Toning. Mix paints to get the color the same with the final paint.
4. Mixing paints.
