Precautions
LIQUID GASKET APPLICATION PROCEDURENBLC00131. Use a scraper to remove all traces of old liquid gasket from
mating surfaces and grooves. Also, completely clean any oil
from these areas.
2. Apply a continuous bead of liquid gasket to mating surfaces.
(Use Genuine RTV silicone sealant Part No. 999MP-A7007
or equivalent.)
IFor oil pan, be sure liquid gasket diameter is 4.0 to 5.0 mm
(0.157 to 0.197 in).
IFor areas except oil pan, be sure liquid gasket diameter is 2.0
to 3.0 mm (0.079 to 0.118 in).
3. Apply liquid gasket around the inner side of bolt holes (unless
otherwise specified).
4. Assembly should be done within 5 minutes after coating.
5. Wait at least 30 minutes before refilling engine oil and engine
coolant.

Precautions
LC-9

System CheckNBLC0016WARNING:
Never remove the radiator cap when the engine is hot; serious
burns could be caused by high pressure fluid escaping from
the radiator.
Wrap a thick cloth around the cap and carefully remove it by
turning it a quarter turn to allow built-up pressure to escape
and then turn the cap all the way off.
CHECKING COOLING SYSTEM HOSESNBLC0016S01Check hoses for improper attachment, leaks, cracks, damage,
loose connections, chafing and deterioration.
CHECKING RADIATORNBLC0016S02Check radiator for mud or clogging. If necessary, clean radiator as
follows.
IBe careful not to bend or damage the radiator fins.
IWhen radiator is cleaned without removal, remove all sur-
rounding parts such as cooling fan, radiator shroud and horns.
Then tape the harness and connectors to prevent water from
entering.
1. Apply water by hose to the back side of the radiator core ver-
tically downward.
2. Apply water again to all radiator core surfaces once per
minute.
3. Stop washing if any stains no longer flow out from the radia-
tor.
4. Blow air into the back side of radiator core vertically downward.
IUse compressed air lower than 490 kPa (5 kg/cm
2, 71 psi) and
keep distance more than 30 cm (11.8 in).
5. Blow air again into all the radiator core surfaces once per
minute until no water sprays out.
SLC755A
CHECKING RADIATOR CAPNBLC0016S03To check radiator cap, apply pressure to cap with a tester.
Radiator cap relief pressure:
Standard
78-98kPa
(0.8 - 1.0 kg/cm
2, 11 - 14 psi)
Limit
59-98kPa
(0.6 - 1.0 kg/cm
2,9-14psi)

CHECKING COOLING SYSTEM FOR LEAKSNBLC0016S04To check for leakage, apply pressure to the cooling system with a
tester.
Testing pressure:
157 kPa (1.6 kg/cm
2, 23 psi)
CAUTION:
Higher than the specified pressure may cause radiator
damage.
Water Pump
REMOVAL AND INSTALLATIONNBLC0017CAUTION:
IWhen removing water pump assembly, be careful not to
get coolant on drive belt.
IWater pump cannot be disassembled and should be
replaced as a unit.
IAfter installing water pump, connect hose and clamp
securely, then check for leaks using radiator cap tester.
