DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING ± SERPENTINE
DRIVE BELT
When diagnosing serpentine drive belts, small
cracks that run across ribbed surface of belt from rib
to rib (Fig. 3), are considered normal. These are not a
reason to replace belt. However, cracks running along
a rib (not across) arenotnormal. Any belt with
cracks running along a rib must be replaced (Fig. 3).
Also replace belt if it has excessive wear, frayed cords
or severe glazing.

NOTE: When ever the high pressure line fittings are
removed from the hydraulic fan drive the o-rings
located on the fittings must be replaced.
(7) Lubricate the o-rings on the fittings with power
steering fluid then connect inlet and outlet high pres-
sure lines to fan drive (Fig. 9). Tighten inlet line to
49 N´m (36 ft. lbs.) tighten outlet line to 29 N´m (21.5
ft. lbs.).
(8) Connect low pressure return hose to fan drive
(Fig. 9).
(9) Lower vehicle.
(10) Install radiator upper hose.
(11) Connect electrical connector for hydraulic fan
control solenoid.
(12) Tighten fan shroud upper mounting bolts to 6
N´m (50 in. lbs.).
(13) Refill cooling system (Refer to 7 - COOLING -
STANDARD PROCEDURE).
CAUTION: Do not run engine with power steering
fluid below the full mark in the reservoir. Sever
damage to the hydraulic cooling fan or the engine
can occur.(14) Refill power steering fluid reservoir and bleed
air from steering system (Refer to 19 - STEERING/
PUMP - STANDARD PROCEDURE).
(15) Run engine and check for leaks.
RADIATOR FAN - 4.0L
DESCRIPTION
The radiator cooling fan used on the 4.0L engine is
an hybrid fan design. The hybrid fan system consist
of a low speed viscous driven mechanical fan and a
electrical fan (Fig. 10).
REMOVAL
(1) Disconnect negative battery cable from battery.
(2) The thermal viscous fan drive/fan blade assem-
bly is attached (threaded) to water pump hub shaft.
Remove fan blade/viscous fan drive assembly from
water pump by turning mounting nut counterclock-
wise as viewed from front (Fig. 11). Threads on vis-
cous fan drive areRIGHT HAND.
(3) Do not attempt to remove fan/viscous fan drive
assembly from vehicle at this time.
(4) Do not unbolt fan blade assembly from viscous
fan drive at this time.
(5) Remove fan shroud-to-upper crossmember nuts.
(6) Remove fan shroud and fan blade/viscous fan
drive assembly as a complete unit from vehicle.

(7) After removing fan blade/viscous fan drive
assembly,do notplace viscous fan drive in horizon-
tal position. If stored horizontally, silicone fluid in
the viscous fan drive could drain into its bearing
assembly and contaminate lubricant.
CAUTION: Do not remove water pump pulley-to-wa-
ter pump bolts. This pulley is under belt tension.
(8) Remove four bolts securing fan blade assembly
to viscous fan drive .
CLEANING
Clean the fan blades using a mild soap and water.
Do not use an abrasive to clean the blades.
INSPECTION
WARNING: DO NOT ATTEMPT TO BEND OR
STRAIGHTEN FAN BLADES IF FAN IS NOT WITHIN
SPECIFICATIONS.
CAUTION: If fan blade assembly is replaced
because of mechanical damage, water pump and
viscous fan drive should also be inspected. These
components could have been damaged due to
excessive vibration.
(1) Remove fan blade assembly from viscous fan
drive unit (four bolts).(2) Lay fan on a flat surface with leading edge fac-
ing down. With tip of blade touching flat surface,
replace fan if clearance between opposite blade and
surface is greater than 2.0 mm (.090 inch). Rocking
motion of opposite blades should not exceed 2.0 mm
(.090 inch). Test all blades in this manner.
(3) Inspect fan assembly for cracks, bends, loose
rivets or broken welds. Replace fan if any damage is
found.
INSTALLATION
(1) Assemble fan blade to viscous fan drive.
Tighten mounting bolts to 27 N´m (20 ft. lbs.) torque.
(2) Thread the fan and fan drive onto the water
pump pulley.
CAUTION: When installing a serpentine accessory
drive belt, the belt MUST be routed correctly. If not,
the engine may overheat due to the water pump
rotating in the wrong direction. (Refer to 7 - COOL-
ING/ACCESSORY DRIVE/DRIVE BELTS - REMOVAL)
for correct belt routing.

THE POWER CORD MUST BE SECURED IN ITS
RETAINING CLIPS AND ROUTED AWAY FROM
EXHAUST MANIFOLDS AND MOVING PARTS.
An optional engine block heater (Fig. 12) is avail-
able with all models. The heater is equipped with a
power cord. The cord is attached to an engine com-
partment component with tie-straps. The heater
warms the engine providing easier engine starting
and faster warm-up in low temperatures. The heater
is mounted in a core hole of the engine cylinder block
in place of a freeze plug with the heating element
immersed in engine coolant.

An optional engine block heater (Fig. 13) is avail-
able with all models. The heater is equipped with a
power cord. The cord is attached to an engine com-
partment component with tie-straps. The heater
warms the engine providing easier engine starting
and faster warm-up in low temperatures. The heater
is mounted in a core hole of the engine cylinder block
in place of a freeze plug with the heating element
immersed in engine coolant.
OPERATION
Connecting the power cord to a grounded 110-120
volt AC electrical outlet with a grounded, three wire
extension cord activates the heating element warm-
ing the engine coolant.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTINGÐENGINE BLOCK
HEATER
If the unit does not operate (Fig. 14) (Fig. 15), pos-
sible causes can be either the power cord or the
heater element. Test the power cord for continuity
with a 110-volt voltmeter or 110-volt test light. Test
heater element continuity with an ohmmeter or a
12-volt test light.
CAUTION: To prevent damage, the power cord must
be secured in it's retainer clips and away from any
components that may cause abrasion or damage,
such as linkages, exhaust components, etc.

ENGINE COOLANT TEMP
SENSOR
DESCRIPTION
The Engine Coolant Temperature (ECT) sensor is
used to sense engine coolant temperature. The sensor
protrudes into an engine water jacket.
The ECT sensor is a two-wire Negative Thermal
Coefficient (NTC) sensor. Meaning, as engine coolant
temperature increases, resistance (voltage) in the
sensor decreases. As temperature decreases, resis-
tance (voltage) in the sensor increases.
OPERATION
At key-on, the Powertrain Control Module (PCM)
sends out a regulated 5 volt signal to the ECT sensor.
The PCM then monitors the signal as it passes
through the ECT sensor to the sensor ground (sensor
return).
When the engine is cold, the PCM will operate in
Open Loop cycle. It will demand slightly richer air-
fuel mixtures and higher idle speeds. This is done
until normal operating temperatures are reached.
The PCM uses inputs from the ECT sensor for the
following calculations:
²for engine coolant temperature gauge operation
through CCD or PCI (J1850) communications
²Injector pulse-width
²Spark-advance curves
²ASD relay shut-down times
²Idle Air Control (IAC) motor key-on steps
²Pulse-width prime-shot during cranking
²O2 sensor closed loop times
²Purge solenoid on/off times
²EGR solenoid on/off times (if equipped)
²Leak Detection Pump operation (if equipped)
²Radiator fan relay on/off times (if equipped)
²Target idle speed
