check oil GEELY FC 2008 Owner's Manual

Engine mechanism - Camshaft(4) Ensure whether the timing sprocket of VVT driver
will turn toward timing advance direction in de-
creasing the pressure of timing delay oil duct.
(5) When camshaft timing sprocket turns at max.
timing advance position, release the air pressure
in timing delay side oil duct, and then release the
air in timing advance side oil duct.
Hint: camshaft timing sprocket will turn only af-
ter the lock pin is released.
(d) Check the fixing state of max. delay position.
Ensure camshaft timing sprocket assembly is fixed at
max. delay position.11. Remove VVT driver assembly.(a) Clip the camshaft with a jaw vice, and ensure VVT driver
is locked tightly.
Warning: be careful not to damage camshaft.
(b) As shown in the diagram, seal 5 oil ducts of camshaft
journal with vinyl rubber cloth.
Hint: there are 2 advance side oil ducts in the
groove of camshaft, and clog one of them
with rubber block.
(c) In opposite side of the groove, respectively prick a hole
on vinyl rubber cloth of advance side oil duct surface
and delay side oil duct surface.
(d) Send in 2 oil ducts (advance side oil duct and delay
side oil duct) with the surface rubber cloth pricked
under the pressure of 150Kpa.
Warning:cover the oil ducts with cloth to avoid
oil injecting out in pushing.
(e) Ensure whether the timing sprocket of VVT driver will
turn toward timing advance direction in decreasing the
pressure of timing delay oil duct.
Hint: camshaft timing sprocket will turn toward
advance direction only after the lock pin is
released.
(f) When camshaft timing sprocket turns at max. timing
advance position, release the air pressure in timing
delay side oil duct, and then release the air in timing
advance side oil duct. Warning: if the air pressure in timing advance side oil duct is released earlier than that
in timing delay side oil duct, VVT driver assembly will move suddenly toward
delay side, and the lock pin will be damaged.
(c) Check rotating is smooth.
Besides max. delay position, turn VVT driver assembly within rotating rang and check rotating is
smooth.
Warning: Perform inspection with hands but not with
compressed air.55Delay side

Cooling - Cooling syste2. Check engine coolant level in reservoir.Engine coolant level should be between “Low” and “Full” mark line.
Hint: if the level is too low, check there is leakage and refill coolant to “Full” mark line.3. Check engine coolant quality.(a) Remove radiator cap.
Warning: when the temperature of engine and radiator is high, do not remove radiator cap to
avoid being scalded, because coolant and steam will spurt under high pressure.
(b) Check there is too much rust deposit around radiator cap or at outlet and check there is flake; there
should not be oil in the coolant.
Hint: if coolant is too dirty, it is required to replace coolant.
(c) Install back radiator cap.Inspection1. Temperature regulatorHint: the figure on temperature regulator is the
opening temperature of valve.CoolingCooling systemOn-vehicle inspection1. Check there is leakage with cooling system.Warning: when the temperature of engine and radiator is
high, do not remove radiator cap to avoid be-
ing scalded, because coolant and steam will
spurt under high pressure.
