26. Inspect the ignition timing (see page 4-17).
Gylinder Head Cover lnstallation
1. Thoroughly clean the head cover gasket and the
groove.
2. Installthe head cover gasket (A) in the groove of
the cylinder head cover (B).
Check that the mating surfaces are clean and dry.
Apply liquid gasket. P/N 08718-0009, on the chain
case and the No.5 rocker shaft holder mating areas.
NOTE: Do not install the parts if 5 minutes or more
have elapsed since applying liquid gasket. Instead,
reapply liquid gasket after removing old residue.

Radiator Cap Test
1. Remove the radiator cap {A), wet its seal with
engine coolant, then install it on the pressure tester(B) (commercially available).
Apply a pressure of 93 '123 kPa {0.95 1.25
kgf/cm', l4 18 psi).
Check for a drop in pressure.
lf the pressure drops, replace the cap.

4.
Radiator Test
Wait untilthe engine is cool, then carefully remove
the radiator cap and fill the radiator with engine
coolant to the top of the filler neck.
Attach the pressure tester (A) (commercially
available) to the radiator.

Apply a pressure ot 93 '123 kPa (0.95 1 .25
kgf/cm', '14 18 psi).
Inspect for engine coolant leaks and a drop in

Water Pump Inspection
Remove the drive belt (see page 4-26),
Turn the water pump pulley counterclockwise.
Check that it turns freely.
Check for signs of seal leakage. A small amount of"weeping" from the bleed holes (A) is normal.
Water Pump Replacement
1. Remove the drive belt (see page 4-26).
2. Drain the engine coolant {see page 10-6).
3. Remove the crankshaft pulley (see page 6-11).
4. Remove the six bolts securing the water pump,
then remove the water pump (A).
6x1.0mm12 N m {1.2 kgt m,8.7 rbf.ft)
Inspect and clean the O-ring groove and mating
surface with the water passage.
Installthe water pump with new O rings in the
reverse order of removal.
7. Clean up any spilled engine coolant.
8. Installthe crankshaft pulley (see page 6-12).
L Refill the radiator with engine coolant, and bleed
air from the cooling system with the heater valve
open {see page 10-6}.

Cooling System
1 . Look at the coolant level in the reserve tank. Make
sure it is between the MAX mark (A) and MIN mark(B),
Goolant Check
lf the coolant level in the reserve tank is at or below
the MIN mark, add coolant to bring it up to the l\4AX
mark, and inspect the cooling system for leaks.

Start the engine. Set the heater temperature control
dial to maximum heat. then turn off the ignition
switch. Make sure the engine and radiator are cool
to the touch.
Remove the radiator cap.
Remove the splash shield (see step 23 on page 5-5).
Loosen the drain plug (A), and drain the coolant.
Remove the reserve tank drain cap (A), and drain
the coolant.

1.
After the coolant has drained, tighten the radiator
drain plug securely. and installthe reserve tank
drain cap securely.
Fill the reserve tank to the MAX mark (A) with
Honda All Season Antifreeze/Coolant Tvpe 2
(P/N O1999-9001).
8. Pour Honda All Season Antifreeze/Coolant Type 2
into the radiator up to the base of the filler neck.
NOTE:. Always use Honda All Season Antifreeze/Coolant
Type 2 {P/N 01999-9001). Using a non-Honda
coolant can result in corrosion, causing the
cooling system to malfunction or fail.. Honda All Season Antifreeze/Coolant Type 2 is a
mixture of 50% antifreeze and 507o water. Pre-
mixing is not required.
Engine Coolant Refill Capacity including the
reserve tank capacity of 0.53 4 (0.56 US gtl :
5.0 0 (s.3 US qt)
Installthe radiator cap loosely.
Start the engine, and let it run until it warms up (the
radiator fan comes on at least twice).
Turn off the engine. Check the level in the radiator,
and add Honda All Season Antifreeze/Coolant Type
2 if needed.
Put the radiator cap on tightly, then run the engine
again and check for leaks.
lnstall the splash shield (see step 22 on page 5-12).
