REMOVAL
WARNING:
Do not remove the radiator cap when the engine is hot. Serious burns could
occur from high-pressure
engine coolant escaping from the radi ator. Wrap a thick cloth around the radiator cap. Slowly turn it a
quarter of a turn to release built-up pressure. Carefu lly remove radiator cap by turning it all the way.
NOTE:
When removing components such as hoses, tubes/lines, etc. , cap or plug openings to prevent fluid from spill-
ing.
1. Drain engine coolant. Refer to CO-8, "
Draining Engine Coolant".
CAUTION:
• Perform this step when the engine is cold.
• Do not spill engine coolant on drive belt.
2. Disconnect battery negative terminal. Refer to PG-70, "
Removal and Installation (Battery)".
3. Remove the front grille. Refer to EXT-32, "
Removal and Installation".
4. Remove reservoir tank. Refer to CO-13, "
Exploded View".
5. Disconnect harness connector from fan motor, and move harness aside.
6. Remove radiator core support (upper). Refer to DLK-144, "
RADIATOR CORE SUPPORT UPPER :
Removal and Installation".
7. Remove cooling fan assembly. CAUTION:
Be careful not to damage or scratch the radiator.
INSTALLATION
Installation is in the reverse order of removal.
CAUTION:
Only use Genuine NISSAN parts for the fan shroud bolt.
NOTE:
Cooling fan assembly is controlled by ECM. For details, refer to EC-38, "

INSPECTION AFTER REMOVAL
• Visually check for significant dirt or rust on the water pump body
and vane (A) and replace as necessary.
• Check that the vane shaft turns smoothly by hand and is not excessively loose.
• Replace the water pump assembly if the water pump does not per-
form properly.
INSTALLATION
Installation is in the reverse order of removal.
• Tighten water pump bolts in order as shown.
CAUTION:
• Do not allow the water pump vane to contact any other parts.
• Water pump cannot be disassembled and must be replaced asan assembly.
• Do not reuse gasket.
• Sealing surface must be clean and free of dents or flaws.
INSPECTION AFTER INSTALLATION
• Before starting engine, check oil/fluid levels, includi ng engine coolant and engine oil. If less than required
quantity, fill to the specified level. Refer to MA-11, "
Fluids and Lubricants".
• Use procedure below to check for fuel leaks.
• Turn ignition switch ON (with engine stopped). With fuel pressure applied to fuel piping, check for fuel leaks at connection points.
• Start engine. With engine speed increased, check again for fuel leaks at connection points.
• Run engine to check for unusual noise and vibration. NOTE:
If hydraulic pressure inside timing chain tensioner drops after removal and installation, slack in the guide
may generate a pounding noise during and just after engine start. However, this is normal. Noise will stop
after hydraulic pressure rises.
• Warm up engine thoroughly to make sure there is no lea ks of fuel, exhaust gas, or any oils/fluids, including
engine oil and engine coolant.
• Bleed air from passages in lines and hoses, such as in cooling system.
• After cooling down engine, again check oil/fluid levels, including engine oil and engine coolant. Refill to spec- ified level, if necessary.
• Summary of the inspection items:
*Power steering fluid, brake fluid, etc.

• Place a thread (A) so that it is caught in the valves of thermostat
(1). Immerse fully in a container (B) filled with water. Heat while
stirring.
• The valve opening temperature is the temperature at which the valve opens and falls from the thread.
• Continue heating. Check the full open valve lift amount.
• After checking the maximum valve lift amount, lower the water
temperature and check the valve closing temperature.
• If out of the standard specificati on range, replace the thermostat.
INSTALLATION
Installation is in the reverse order of removal.
Thermostat
• Install thermostat making sure rubber ring (1) groove fits securely
to thermostat flange (A).
CAUTION:
Do not reuse rubber ring.
• Install thermostat (2) into the cylinder block (1) with jiggle valve (A) facing upward.
Water Inlet
After installation, attach the water inlet clip (A) on the oil level gauge
guide (1) positioned at location (B) as shown.
INSPECTION AFTER INSTALLATION
• Before starting engine, check oil/fluid levels, includi ng engine coolant and engine oil. If less than required
quantity, fill to the specified level. Refer to MA-11, "
Fluids and Lubricants".
• Use procedure below to check for fuel leaks.
• Turn ignition switch ON (with engine stopped). With fuel pressure applied to fuel piping, check for fuel leaks at connection points.
• Start engine. With engine speed increased, check again for fuel leaks at connection points. Standard : Refer to

3. Attach liquid gasket tube to the suitable tool.
Use Genuine Silicone RTV Sealant, or equivalent. Refer to
GI-22, "
Recommended Chemical Products and Sealants".
4. Apply liquid gasket without gaps to the specified location accord- ing to the specified dimensions.
• If there is a groove for liquid gasket application, apply liquidgasket to the groove.
• As for bolt holes (B), normally apply liquid gasket inside the holes. Occasionally, it should be applied outside the holes.
Check to read the text of this manual.
• Within five minutes of liquid gasket application, install the mat- ing component.
• If liquid gasket protrudes, wipe it off immediately.
• Do not retighten mounting bolts or nuts after the installation.
• After 30 minutes or more have passed from the installation, fill engine oil and engine coolant.
CAUTION:
If there are specific instructions in the procedures contained in this manual concerning liquid gasket
application, observe them.
