1. Disconnect the negative battery cable.
2. Drain the cooling system.
Never open, service or drain the radiator or
cooling system when hot; serious bums can
occur from the
steam and hot coolant. Also,
when draining engine coolant, keep in mind
that cats and dogs are attracted to ethylene
glycol antifreeze and could drink any that is
left in an uncovered container or in puddles
on the ground. This will prove fatal in suffi-
cient quantities. Always drain coolant into a
sealable container. Coolant should be reused bolts.
5. Lift the housing from the engine.
6. Remove the thermostat taking note of its
original position in the housing.
To Install:
*In order to prevent leakage, make sure
both mating
surfaces are clean and free of
any old gasket material.
7. Install the thermostat so its flange seats
tightly in the machined groove in the intake manifold
or thermostat case. Refer to its location prior to re-
moval. Aliqn the relief valve with the alignment mark

Many turbocharger failures are due to oil supply
problems. Heat soak after hot shutdown can cause
the engine oil in the turbocharger and oil lines to
“coke.” Often the oil feed lines will become partially
or completely blocked with hardened particles of car-
bon, blocking oil flow. Check the oil feed pipe and oil
return line for cloggrng. Clean these tubes well. Al-
ways use new gaskets above and below the oil feed
eyebolt fitting. Do not allow particles of dirt or old
gasket material to enter the oil passage hole and that
no portion of the new gasket blocks the passage.
1. Disconnect the negative battery cable.
2. Drain the engine oil, cooling system and re-
move the radiator On vehicles equipped with A/C,
remove the condenser fan assembly with the radiator.
The EPA warns that prolonged contact with
used engine oil may cause a number of skin
disorders, including cancer! You should
make every effort to minimize your exposure
to used engine oil. Protective gloves should
be worn when changing the oil. Wash your
hands and any other exposed skin areas as
soon as possible after exposure to used en-
gine oil. Soap and water, or waterless hand
cleaner should be used.
Never open, service or drain the radiator or
cooling system when hot; serious burns can
occur from the steam and hot coolant. Also,
when draining engine coolant, keep in mind
that cats and dogs are attracted to ethylene Fig. 75 Exploded view

sealable container. Coolant should be reused
unless it is contaminated or is several years
old.
3 Detach the oxygen sensor connector and re-
move the sensor.
4. Remove the oil dipstick and tube.
5. Remove the air intake bellows hose, the
wastegate vacuum hose, the connections for the air
outlet hose, and the upper and lower heat shield.
6. Unbolt the power steering pump and bracket

line (under the turbo). Discard the gasket. Separate
the turbo from the exhaust manifold. The 2 water
pipes and oil feed line can still be attached. 19. In&h the radiator assembly.
20. Fill the engine with oil, fill the cooling system

11. Visually check the turbine wheel (hot side)
and compressor wheel (cold side) for cracking or
other damage. Check whether the turbine wheel and
the compressor wheel can be easily turned by hand.
Check for oil leakaae. Check whether or not the Operating the engine without the proper
amount and type of engine oil will result in
severe engine damage.
