1) Drain cooling system. Remove fan shroud and drive belts.
Remove fan assembly.
2) Disconnect heater hoses and lower radiator hose at water
pump. Remove water pump retaining bolts. Remove water pump.
Installation
Clean all gasket surfaces. Install water pump. Tighten bolts
to specification. Ensure pump turns freely. Reverse removal
procedures. Fill and purge air from cooling system.
NOTE: It may be necessary to remove heater hose to remove trapped
air if system cannot be purged using following procedures.
Cooling System Air Purge (Vehicles With Coolant Recovery)
Fill system to proper level. Place heater control to "HEAT"
position and temperature control to "WARM" or "HIGH" position. Install
coolant caps. Operate engine to normal operating temperature. Shut off
engine and allow system to cool. Add coolant to recovery bottle.
Repeat procedure to obtain correct coolant level.
Cooling System Air Purge (Vehicles Without Coolant Recovery)
Fill system to proper level. Place heater control to "HEAT"
position and temperature control to "WARM" or "HIGH" position. Operate
engine to normal operating temperature with radiator cap removed. Add
necessary coolant and install radiator cap.
NOTE: For further information on cooling system capacities and
other cooling system components, see ENGINE COOLING SYSTEMS
article.
ENGINE OILING
CRANKCASE CAPACITY
Crankcase capacity is 4 qts. (3.8 L) with oil filter change.
NORMAL OIL PRESSURE
Normal oil pressure should be 13 psi (.91 kg/cm) at 600 RPM
or 37-75 psi (2.6-5.3 kg/cm) at 1600 RPM.
OIL PRESSURE REGULATOR VALVE
Oil pressure regulator valve is located in oil pump body and
is nonadjustable.
OILING SYSTEM
Engine lubrication is provided by the distributor driven
gear-type oil pump. Oil is supplied through the full-flow oil filter
and into an internal oil passage. Internal passage runs along right
side of block and intersects lifter bores.
Oil is then routed to camshaft and crankshaft bearings. Oil
is supplied to rocker arms from the hydraulic lifters and through the
push rods. By-pass valves are located in oil filter mounting and oil
pump.
