ELECTRIC COOLING FAN - SYSTEM TESTING
MIRAGE 1.5L
1) With A/C on LOW position, ignition on and engine coolant
temperature greater than 185 F (85 C), thermosensor completes path to
ground, closing radiator fan motor relay contacts and providing
current to radiator fan motor. See Fig. 1.
2) With A/C on HIGH position and ignition on, power supply
from automatic compressor control unit causes condenser fan motor
relay and condenser fan motor control relay to turn on, causing
condenser fan and radiator cooling fan to operate.

MIRAGE 1.6L
1) With A/C on LOW position, ignition on and engine coolant
temperature greater than 185 F (85 C), thermosensor completes path to
ground, closing radiator fan motor relay contacts and providing
current to radiator fan motor. See Fig. 2.
2) With A/C on HIGH position and ignition on, power supply
from auto compressor control unit causes condenser fan motor relay to
turn on, causing condenser fan and radiator cooling fan to operate at
a low speed by usage of a resistor.
3) If pressure switch is activated by excessive pressure or
if thermosensor is on when engine coolant temperature exceeds 185
F
(85 C), condenser fan motor control relay is activated, causing
condenser fan and radiator cooling fan to operate at a high speed.
ECLIPSE & 3000GT
With ignition on and engine coolant temperature greater than
185 F (85 C), thermosensor completes path to ground, closing radiator
fan motor relay contacts and providing current to radiator fan. See
Figs. 7 -11.

Engine pre-oiling can be done using pressure oiler (if
available). Connect pressure oiler to cylinder block oil passage
such as oil pressure sending unit. Operate pressure oiler long enough
to ensure correct amount of oil has filled crankcase. Check oil level
while pre-oiling.
If pressure oiler is not available, disconnect ignition
system. Remove oil pressure sending unit and replace with oil pressure
test gauge. Using starter motor, rotate engine starter until gauge
shows normal oil pressure for several seconds. DO NOT crank engine
for more than 30 seconds to avoid starter motor damage.
Ensure oil pressure has reached the most distant point from
the oil pump. Reinstall oil pressure sending unit. Reconnect ignition
system.
INITIAL START-UP
Start the engine and operate engine at low speed while
checking for coolant, fuel and oil leaks. Stop engine. Recheck coolant
and oil level. Adjust if necessary.
CAMSHAFT
Break-in procedure is required when a new or reground
camshaft has been installed. Operate and maintain engine speed between
1500-2500 RPM for approximately 30 minutes. Procedure may vary due to
manufacturers recommendations.
PISTON RINGS
Piston rings require a break-in procedure to ensure seating
of rings to cylinder walls. Serious damage may occur to rings if
correct procedures are not followed.
Extremely high piston ring temperatures are produced obtained
during break-in process. If rings are exposed to excessively high RPM
or high cylinder pressures, ring damage can occur. Follow piston ring
manufacturer's recommended break-in procedure.
FINAL ADJUSTMENTS
Check or adjust ignition timing and dwell (if applicable).
Adjust valves (if necessary). Adjust carburetion or injection idle
speed and mixture. Retighten cylinder heads (if required). If
cylinder head or block is aluminum, retighten bolts when engine is
cold. Follow the engine manufacturer's recommended break-in procedure
and maintenance schedule for new engines.
NOTE: Some manufacturer's require that head bolts be retightened
after specified amount of operation. This must be done to
prevent head gasket failure.

REFILLING
To prevent air from being trapped in engine block, engine
should be running when refilling cooling system. After system is full,
continue running engine until thermostat is open, then recheck fill
level. Do not overfill system.
TESTING
THERMOSTAT
1) Visually inspect thermostat for corrosion and proper
sealing of valve and seat. If okay, suspend thermostat and thermometer
in a 50/50 mixture of coolant and water. See Fig. 1. Do not allow
thermostat or thermometer to touch bottom of container. Heat water
until thermostat just begins to open.
2) Read temperature on thermometer. This is the initial
opening temperature and should be within specification. Continue
heating water until thermostat is fully open and note temperature.
This is the fully opened temperature. If either reading is not to
specification, replace thermostat.

PRESSURE TESTING
A pressure tester is used to check both radiator cap and
Page 605 of 1333
With lever set at OUTSIDE position, outside air is allowed to enter
and/or pass through heater. With lever set at INSIDE position, air is
recirculated inside passenger compartment.
BLOWER SWITCH
The blower can be operated at different fan speeds to
regulate amount of air forced through vehicle. Fan speed will increase
as switch is turned or moved right.
AIR CONTROL INDICATION SYSTEM
This system consists of indication lights built into
instrument cluster and 4 switches connected to various control levers.
An indication light glows when heater blower is on. Lights also
indicate choice of outlets and whether air source is inside or outside
vehicle. In addition, temperature of air directed from outlets is
indicated for each air outlet by light colors of green (cool air) and
orange (warm air).
ADJUSTMENTS
HEATER (TEMPERATURE) CONTROL VALVE
Place control lever to indicated position. See TEMPERATURE
CONTROL CABLE ADJUSTMENT table. See Fig. 3. Connect cable to heater
control valve and/or air damper lever according to table. Secure cable
sleeve using clips. With engine running, check for coolant leaks and
check operation of heater control valve. If heater control valve does
not operate properly, adjust by moving cable sleeve forward or
backward at retaining clip.
