LIQUID GASKET APPLICATION PROCEDURENJLC00011. Use a scraper to remove all traces of old liquid gasket from
mating surfaces and grooves. Also, completely clean any oil
from these areas.
2. Apply a continuous bead of liquid gasket to mating surfaces.
(Use Genuine Liquid Gasket or equivalent.)
+For oil pan, be sure liquid gasket diameter is 3.5 to 4.5 mm
(0.138 to 0.177 in).
+For areas except oil pan, be sure liquid gasket diameter is 2.0
to 3.0 mm (0.079 to 0.118 in).
3. Apply liquid gasket around the inner side of bolt holes (unless
otherwise specified).
4. Assembly should be done within 5 minutes after coating.
5. Wait at least 30 minutes before refilling engine oil and engine
coolant.

CAUTION:
+When removing water pump assembly, be careful not to
get coolant on drive belt.
+Water pump cannot be disassembled and should be
replaced as a unit.
+After installing water pump, and check for leaks using
radiator cap tester.
1. Drain engine coolant.
Refer to LC-18, ªChanging Engine Coolantº.
2. Remove drive belts and idler pulley.
3. Loosen water pump pulley bolts.
4. Remove water pump pulley.
5. Remove front right wheel.
6. Remove front right undercover and front right fender protector.
7. Remove water pump bolts.
8. Remove water pump.
9. Reinstall parts in reverse order of removal.

Changing Engine CoolantNJLC0037WARNING:
To avoid the danger of being scalded, never change the cool-
ant when the engine is hot.
Ð DRAINING ENGINE COOLANT ÐNJLC0037S011. Set air conditioning system as follows to prevent coolant from
remaining in the system.
a. Turn ignition switch ON and set temperature controller to maxi-
mum hot position.
b. Wait 10 seconds before turning ignition switch OFF.

2. Open radiator drain cock at the bottom of radiator or remove
lower radiator hose, and remove radiator filler cap to drain
coolant.
3. Remove reservoir tank, drain coolant, then clean reservoir
tank.
+Be careful not to allow coolant to contact drive belts.
4. Cover the exhaust tube heat shield to prevent from splashing
coolant.

5. Remove drain plug on cylinder block and air relief plug.
6. Check drained coolant for contaminants such as rust, corro-
sion or discoloration. If contaminated flush engine cooling
system, refer to LC-20, ªFLUSHING COOLING SYSTEMº.
7. Blow the coolant around the exhaust tube heat shield.
Ð REFILLING ENGINE COOLANT ÐNJLC0037S021. Install reservoir tank, radiator drain cock or lower radiator hose
and cylinder block drain plug.
+Apply sealant to the thread of cylinder block drain plug.
: 35 - 44 N´m (3.50 - 4.50 kg-m, 26 - 32 ft-lb)
2. Fill radiator slowly with coolant until coolant spills from the air
relief plug, then install air relief plug.
Air relief plug:
: 6.7 - 7.8 N´m (0.68 - 0.80 kg-m, 59 - 69 in-lb)
+Use genuine Nissan anti-freeze coolant or equivalent
mixed with water (distilled or demineralized).
