3.4 Cleaning Cooling System
NOTE
• Before carrying out reverse flushing
procedures, it is recommended that a
cleaning solution be used to loosen scale and
corrosion. Only use a Holden approved
radiator cleaner following the instructions on
the container label.
• This operation should only be carried out
when the engine and radiator are at ambient
temperature.
• When using specialised cooling system
flushing equipment, connect the equipment as
recommended by the manufacturer.

9 To gain easier access to the heater pipe flange and
thermostat housing bolts, disconnect the engine
harness and lay back on the right side of the engine
bay. Apart from those harness connectors removed
during the intake manifold removal, this involves the
removal of wiring harness connectors and fasteners,
as detailed:
a Pull out the release bar (arrows) on each of the ignition coil packs (1) on cylinders 2, 4 and 6,
before disconnecting each connector.
b The coolant temperature sensor.
c The left side Pre-O2 sensor connector, 2, 4 & 6.
NOTE
Refer to 8A – Electrical Body & Chassis for the
location of harness connectors, not shown.

Test
1 W ith the thermostat (1) installed in the housing,
suspend it and a suitable thermometer (2) in a
container of 50% clean fresh water and 50% Dexron ®
long life coolant, (conforming to GM 6277M).
NOTE
Neither the thermostat assembly (1) nor the
thermometer (2) should rest on the bottom of the
container because of uneven concentration of
heat at this point when the container is heated.
2 Heat container until thermostat begins to open. Agitate solution to ensure uniform temperature. Note
temperature and ensure thermostat opens within
specified temperature range.
Thermostat Opening Specifications
Opening Temperature ........................................ 82 ° C
Fully Open Temperature .................................... 95 ° C
3 Replace thermostat if it does not meet these operating
conditions.

Dismantle

Only dismantle the thermostat if a reverse
flushing operation of the cylinder block is to
be carried out. If the testing operation
indicates that the thermostat is faulty, then
the housing and thermostat are only serviced
as an assembly.
Remove thermostat (1) from thermostat housing (2) as
follows:
a Secure the thermostat housing by gripping in a vice fitted with soft jaws.

Always wear protective safety glasses when
working with spring-loaded devices. Failure
to do so could result in eye injury.
b Depress the retaining bar (3) on both sides of the thermostat and rotate the thermostat until it
clears the retaining lugs (4) on the thermostat
housing (2).
c Release the thermostat spring force.
d Remove the thermostat assembly from the thermostat housing.
