2. Disconnect the battery negative cable.
3. Drain the cooling system.
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
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
unless it is contaminated or is several years
old.

1. Relieve the fuel system pressure.
Observe all applicable safety precautions
when working around fuel. Whenever servic-
ing the fuel system, always work in a well
ventilated area. Do not allow fuel spray or
vapors to come in contact with a spark or
open flame. Keep a dry chemical fire extin-
guisher near the work area. Always keep fuel
in a container specifically designed for fuel
storage; also, always properly seal fuel con-
tainers to avoid the possibility of fire or ex-
ulosion.
2. Disconnect battery negative cable and drain
the cooling system.
Never open, service or drain the radiator or

# See Figures 75 and 76
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

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
assembly and leaving the hoses connected, wire it
aside.
7. Remove the self-locking exhaust manifold
nuts, the triangular engrne hanger bracket, the eye-

bolt and gaskets that connect the oil feed line to the
turbo center section and the water cooling lines. The
water line under the turbo has a threaded connection.
8. Remove the exhaust pipe nuts and gasket and
lift off the exhaust manifold. Discard the gasket,
9. Remove the 2 through bolts and 2 nuts that 16. If removed, install the power steering pump
and bracket.
17. Install the heat shields, air outlet hose, waste-
gate hose and air intake bellows.

sealable container. Coolant should be reused
unless it is contaminated or is several years
old.
3. Disconnect the overflow tube. Some vehicles
hold the exhaust manifold to the turbocharger,
10. Remove the 2 capscrews from the oil return
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
and reconnect the negative battery cable.
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.

found, replace the part. Inspect oil passages for re- #I , I
striction or deposits and clean as required,
12. The wasteaate can be checked with a ores-

and make sure the rod moves. Do not apply more
than 10.3 psi or the diaphragm in the wastegate may
be damaged. Vacuum applied to the wastegate actua-
tor should be maintained, replace if leaks vacuum,

I. Disconnect the negative battery cable.
2. Drain the cooling system when safe.
To
install: 13. Prime the oil return line with clean engine oil.
Replace all locking nuts. Before installing the
threaded connection for the water inlet pipe, apply
light oil to the inner surface of the pipe flange. As-
semble the turbocharger and exhaust manifold.
14. Install the exhaust manifold using a new gas-
ket.
15. Connect the water cooling lines, oil feed line
and engine hanger. 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
glyeol antifreeze and could drink any that is
left in an uncovered container or in puddles
on the ground. This will prove fatal in suffi-

4. Disconnect upper and lower radiator hoses.
5. Detach the electrical connectors from the
cooling fan and air conditioning condenser fan, if
equipped.
6. For Mirage and Diamante models, remove
the fan assembly.
7. Disconnect the therm0 sensor wires,
8. If equipped with an automatic transaxle, dis-
connect and plug the automatic transaxle cooler
lines.
9. Remove the upper radiator mounts and lift
out the radiator assembly or radiator/fan assembly,
as applicable.
To install:
10. Install the radiator or radiator and fan, if re-
moved as an assembly.
11. Connect the automatic transaxle cooler lines
if disconnected.
12. Connect the therm0 sensor wires,
13. Install the fan, if removed separately.
14. Install the radiator hoses.
15. Install the air cleaner support bracket, if re-
noved.
16. Install the overflow tube and reservoir, if re-
noved.
17. Fill the system with coolant.
18. Connect the negative battery cable, run the
vehicle until the thermostat opens, fill the radiator
