3. Fill radiator and reservoir tank to the specified level.
lPour engine coolant through engine coolant filler neck
slowly of less than 2 (1-3/4 lmp qt) a minute to allow air
in system to escape.
lUse Genuine Nissan Anti-freeze Coolant (L250) or equiva-
lent in its quality. Refer toMA-14, "
RECOMMENDED FLU-
IDS AND LUBRICANTS".
lWhen engine coolant overflows air relief hole, install air relief
plug.
4. Warm up engine to normal operating temperature without radiator cap and reservoir tank cap installed.
lIf engine coolant overflows radiator filler hole and reservoir tank filler hole, install radiator cap
and reservoir tank cap.
5. Run engine at 3,000 rpm for 10 seconds and return to idle speed with radiator cap installed.
lRepeat two or three times.
CAUTION:
Watch engine coolant temperature gauge so as not to overheat the engine.
6. Stop engine and cool down to less than approximately 50°C(122°F).
lCool down using a fan to reduce the time.
lIf necessary, refill radiator up to filler neck with engine coolant.
7. Refill reservoir tank to MAX level line with engine coolant.
8. Repeat steps 3 through 6 two or more times with radiator cap installed until engine coolant level no longer
drops.
9. Check cooling system for leaks with engine running.
10. Warm up engine, and check for sound of engine coolant flow while running engine from idle up to 3,000
rpm with heater temperature controller set at several position between COOL and WARM.
lSound may be noticeable at heater unit.
11. Repeat step 10 three times.
12. If sound is heard, bleed air from cooling system by repeating steps 3 through 6 until engine coolant level
no longer drops.
FLUSHING COOLING SYSTEM
1. Fill radiator with water until water spills from the air relief hole, then close air relief plug. Fill radiator and
reservoir tank with water and reinstall radiator cap and reservoir tank cap.
2. Run engine and warm it up to normal operating temperature.
3. Rev engine two or three times under no-load.
4. Stop engine and wait until it cools down.
5. Drain water from the system. Refer toCO-8, "

5. Disconnect radiator hose (upper and lower) and reservoir tank hose.
CAUTION:
Be careful not to allow engine coolant to contact drive belts.
6. Remove reservoir tank.
7. Remove cooling fans (crankshaft driven type and motor driven type) and radiator shrouds (upper and
lower). Refer toCO-19, "
COOLING FAN".
8. Disconnect A/T fluid cooler hoses. (A/T models)
lInstall blind plug to avoid leakage of A/T fluid.
9. Remove radiator mounting brackets.
10. Remove the two A/C condenser bolts. (models with A/C)
11. Remove radiator.
Remove radiator as follows (models with A/C):
CAUTION:
Do not damage or scratch A/C condenser and radiator core when removing.
a. With lifting and pulling radiator (3) in a rear direction, remove
radiator lower mount (4) from radiator core support (1).
CAUTION:
Because A/C condenser (2) is onto the front-lower portion
of radiator (3), moving to rear direction should be at mini-
mum.
b. Lift A/C condenser up and remove radiator.
CAUTION:
Lifting A/C condenser should be minimum to prevent a load
to A/C piping.
c. After removing radiator, temporarily secure it with rope or similar
means to prevent a load to A/C piping.

INSPECTION AFTER REMOVAL
Checking Reservoir Tank Cap
lInspect valve seat of reservoir tank cap.
–Check if valve seat is swollen to the extent that the edge of the
plunger cannot be seen when watching it vertically from the top.
–Check if valve seat has no soil and damage.
lPull negative-pressure valve to open it, and make sure that it is
completely closed when released.
–Make sure that there is no dirt or damage on the valve seat of
radiator cap negative-pressure valve.
–Make sure that there are no unusualness in the opening and
closing conditions of negative-pressure valve.
lCheck reservoir tank cap relief pressure.
–When connecting reservoir tank cap to the radiator cap tester
adapter [SST] and the radiator cap tester (Commercial service
tool), apply engine coolant to the cap seal surface.
lReplace reservoir tank cap if there is an unusualness in negative pressure valve, or if the relief pressure
falls below the limit.
CAUTION:
When installing a radiator cap and reservoir tank cap, thoroughly wipe out the radiator and reservoir
tank filler neck to remove any waxy residue or foreign material.
Checking Radiator
Check radiator for mud or clogging. If necessary, clean radiator as follows.
lBe careful not to bend or damage the radiator fins.
lWhen radiator is cleaned without removal, remove all surrounding parts such as cooling fan, radiator
shroud and horns. Then tape the harness and connectors to prevent water from entering.
1. Apply water by hose to the back side of the radiator core vertically downwards.
2. Apply water again to all radiator core surface once per minute.
3. Stop washing if any stains no longer flow out from the radiator.
4. Blow air into the back side of radiator core vertically downwards.
lUse compressed air lower than 490 kPa (4.9 bar, 5 kg/cm2, 71 psi) and keep distance more than 30 cm
(11.8 in).
5. Blow air again into all the radiator core surface once per minute until no water sprays out.

it turns smoothly when rotated by hand.
lIf there are any unusualness, replace water pump assembly as
necessary.
INSTALLATION

*1: The input signal is sent to the ECM through CAN communication line.
*2: The output signal is sent from the ECM through CAN communication line.
Fuel Injection Control SystemEBS01KCE
SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
Three types of fuel injection control are provided to accommodate engine operating conditions; normal control,
idle control and start control. The ECM determines the appropriate fuel injection control. Under each control,
the amount of fuel injected is adjusted to improve engine performance.
Pulse signals are sent to fuel injectors according to the input signals to adjust the amount of fuel injected to
preset value.
