Engine Coolant Refilling and Bleeding (cont'dl
Mix the recommended antifreeze with an equal
amount of water in a clean container.

For best corrosion protection, the coolant con-
centration must be maintained year-round at50% minimum. Coolant concentrations less than
50% may not provide sufficient protection against
corrosion or freezing. Coolant concentrationsgreater than 60% will impair cooling efficiency
and are not recommended.
Do not use additional rust inhibitors or anti-rustproducts; they may not be compatible with the
coolant.

9. Pour coolant into the radiator uD to the base of the
filler neck. When pouring engine coolant. do not let
coolant spill on any electrical pans or the paint. lf
any coolant spills, rinse it oft immediately.
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,
add coolant if needed.
Put the radiator cap on tightly. then run the engine
again and check for leaks.

Radiator Fan Switch Testing
E@ Removing the radiator fan switch whilethe engine is hot can cause the coolant to spray out, seri-ously scalding you. Always let the enginc and radiatorcool down before removing the radiator fan switch.
1. Remove the radiator fan switch from the thermostathousing (see page 10 '10).
2. Suspend the radiator fan switch in a container ofwater as shown.
Heat the water, and check the temperature with athermometer. Do not let the thermometer touch thebottom of the hot container.
Measure the continuity between the A and B termi-nals according to the table.
Bleed the air from the cooling system after installingthe radiator fan switch (see page 10-5).

ldle Control System
Fast ldle Thermo Valve lA/T)
Description
To prevent erratic running when the engine is warming
up, it is necessary to raise the idle speed. The fast idle
thermo valve is controlled by a thermowax plunger.
When the engine is cold, the engine coolant surround-
ing the thermowax contracts the plunger, allowing addi-
tional air to be bvDassed into the intake manifold so that
the engine idles faster. When the engine reaches operat-
ing temperature. the valve closes, reducing the amount
of air bypassing into the intake manifold.

NOTE: The fast idle thermo valve is factory adjusted; it
should not be disassembled.
1. Remove the intake air duct from the throttle body.
2. Start the engine,
3. Put your finger over the lower port in throttle body,
and make sure that there is air flow with the engine
cold (engine coolant temperature below 86"F, 30'C).
lf there is no air flow, replace the fast idle thermo
valve and retest,

Start the engine. Hold the engine at 3,000 rpm with no
load (in Park or neutral) until the radiator fan comes
on, then let it idle.
Check that the valve is completely closed. lf the valve
is leaking, the idle speed will drop when you cover the
lower pon. Check the engine coolant level and for air
in the engine cooling system {see section 10). lf the
cooling system is OK, replace the fast idle thermo
valve and recheck.

Catalytic Converter {TWC), Positive Crankcase Ventilation
(PCV) svstem and Evaporative Emission (€VAP) Control
system. The emission control system is designed to meet
federal and state emission standards.

!@ Do not smoke during this procsdura. Keep
any open tlame away from your work area.
1. Start the engine. Hold the engine at 3,000 rpm with
no load (in Park or neutral) until the radiator fan
comes on, then let it idle,
Connect a tachometer.
Check and, if necessary, adjust the idle speed, (see
page 11-169, 170).
Warm up and calibrate the CO meter according to the
meter manufacturer's instructions.
Check idle CO with the headlights, heater blower, rear
window defogger, cooling fan, and air conditioner off.
(Canada) Pull the parking brake lever up. Start the
engine, then check that the headlights are off.
CO meter should indicate 0.1% maximum.
