Underbody
The underbody is frequently exposed to corrosive substances such as those used
on icy roads or to control dust. It is very important to remove these substances, oth-
erwise rust will form on the floor pan, frame, fuel lines and around the exhaust sys-
tem. At the end of winter, the underbody should be thoroughly flushed with plain
water, being careful to clean those areas where mud and dirt can easily accumu-
late. —
Fluid leaks Check under the vehicle for fuel, oil, water or other fluid leaks after the vehicle has
been parked for a while. Water dripping from the air conditioner after use is normal.
If you should notice any leaks or gasoline fumes are evident, check for the cause
and correct it immediately. —

SAE Viscosity NumberINFOID:0000000005931135
NISSAN recommends the use of an energy conser ving oil in order to improve fuel economy.
Select only engine oils that meet the American Petroleum Institute (API) certification and International Lubrica-
tion Standardization and Approval Committee (ILSAC) ce rtification and SAE viscosity standard. These oils
have the API certification mark on the front of the container. Oils which do not have the specified quality label
should not be used as they could cause engine damage.
Anti-freeze Coolant Mixture RatioINFOID:0000000005931136
The engine cooling system is filled at the factory wit h a high-quality, long life, year-round, anti-freeze coolant
solution. The anti-freeze solution contains rust and corrosion inhibitors. Therefore, additional cooling system
additives are not necessary.
CAUTION:
• When adding or replacing coolant, be sure to u se only Genuine NISSAN Long Life AntiFreeze / Cool-
ant (blue) or equivalent with the proper mixture ratio of 50% an ti-freeze and 50% demineralized or
distilled water.
• Mixing any other type of coolant or the use of non-distilled water will reduce the life expectancy of
the factory-fi ll coolant.

8. Continue to draw the vacuum until the gauge reaches 28 inches of vacuum. The gauge may not reach 28 inches in high altitude
locations, use the vacuum specifications based on the altitude
above sea level.
9. When the vacuum gauge has reached the specified amount, disconnect the air hose and wait 20 seconds
to see if the system loses any vacuum. If the vacuum level drops, perform any necessary repairs to the
system and repeat steps 6 - 8 to br ing the vacuum to the specified amount. Recheck for any leaks.
10. Place the coolant container (with the refill hose inserted) at the same level as the top of the radiator. Then
open the ball valve on the refill hose so the coolant will be drawn up to fill the cooling system. The cooling
system is full when the vacuum gauge reads zero.
CAUTION:
Do not allow the coolant container to get too low when filling, to avoid air from being drawn into
the cooling system.
11. Remove the Tool from the radiator neck opening.
12. Fill the cooling system reservoir tank to the specif ied level and install the radiator cap. Run the engine to
warm up the cooling system and top up the system as necessary.
FLUSHING COOLING SYSTEM
1. Install reservoir tank if removed. Refer to CO-16, "Component".
2. Install radiator drain plug. •If water drain plug on cylinder block is removed, close and tighten it. Refer to EM-90, "
Disassem-
bly and Assembly".
CAUTION:
Be sure to clean radiator drain plug and install with new O-ring. Refer to CO-16, "
Component".
3. Fill radiator and reservoir tank with water and reinstall radiator cap.
4. Run engine and warm it up to normal operating temperature.
5. Rev engine two or three times under no-load.
6. Stop engine and wait until it cools down.
7. Drain water from the cooling system.
8. Repeat steps 1 through 7 until clear water begins to drain from radiator.
FUEL LINES
FUEL LINES : Checking Fuel LineINFOID:0000000005931141
