Warning
•Fuel vapor is hazardous. It can very easily ignite, causing serious injury and damage. Always keep
sparks and flames away from fuel.
•Fuel line spills and leakage are dangerous. Fuel can ignite and cause serious injuries or death and
damage. Fuel can also irritate skin and eyes. To prevent this, always complete the “Fuel Line
Safety Procedure”. (See F2–45 Fuel Line Safety Procedures.)
1. Remove the timing belt. (See B2–9 TIMING BELT REMOVAL/INSTALLATION.)
2. Remove the vacuum pump. (See P–13 VACUUM PUMP REMOVAL/INSTALLATION (MZR-CD (RF
TURBO)).)
3. Remove the P/S oil pump with the oil hose still connected. Position the P/S oil pump so that it is out of the way.
Use wire or rope to secure. (See N–16 POWER STEERING OIL PUMP (MZR-CD (RF Turbo)) REMOVAL/
INSTALLATION.)
4. Remove the turbocharger. (See F2–57 EXHAUST SYSTEM REMOVAL/INSTALLATION.)
5. Remove all the glow plugs. (See F2–42 GLOW PLUG REMOVAL/INSTALLATION.)
6. Remove in the order shown in the table.
7. Install in the reverse order of removal.
8. Inspect valve clearance. (See B2–5 VALVE CLEARANCE INSPECTION.)
9. Inspect the engine oil level.
•If necessary, add oil. (See D–8 ENGINE OIL INSPECTION.)
10. Inspect the compression. (See B2–8 COMPRESSION INSPECTION.)
11. Start the engine and:
(1) Inspect the pulleys and the drive belt for runout and contact.
(2) Inspect the engine oil, engine coolant, and fuel leakage.
(3) Inspect the idle speed. (See F2–34 IDLE SPEED INSPECTION.)

Structure
•Electric cooling fans No.1 and No.2, operated according to a cooling fan control signal from the PCM, have
been adopted. Due to this, engine noise is reduced and rapid warm-up is possible.
•Cooling fans No.1 and No.2 are attached to the radiator cowling.
•The cooling fan motor output has been changed.

RADIATOR CAP INSPECTIONA6E361415201201MZR-CD (RF Turbo)
Warning
•Never remove the radiator cap while the engine is running, or when the engine and radiator are
hot. Scalding coolant and steam may shoot out and cause serious injury. It may also damage the
engine and cooling system.
•Turn off the engine and wait until it is cool. Even then, be very careful when removing the cap.
Wrap a thick cloth around it and slowly turn it counterclockwise to the first stop. Step back while
the pressure escapes.
•When you are sure all the pressure is gone, press down on the cap using the cloth, turn it, and
remove it.
1. Clean the radiator cap negative pressure valve and the sealed part.
2. Inspect the crack or turn over on the sealed part of the radiator cap.
•If not as specified, repace the radiator cap.
3. Fill the SST with the water or the engine coolant to the full level and attach the radiator cap to the SST.
4. Hold the radiator cap downward and apply pressure gradually. Verify that the pressure become held for 10 s
within the specification.
•If the pressure is not held stable within the specification, replace the radiator cap.

1. Inspect the coolant level.
2. Remove the radiator cap.
3. Clean the mounting surface of the rediator cap and the upper radiator hose.
4. Connect the SST to the reservoir filler port.
5. Apply specified pressure to the radiator.
Pressure
122 kPa { 1.24 kgf/cm
2, 17.6 psi}
6. Verify that the pressure is held.
•If not, inspect the system for coolant leakage.
—If the coolant leaks from the upper hose
attachment part, replace the upper hose
and the clamp.
—If the coolant leaks from the main body of
the radiator (caulked part), replace the
radiator.
