Maintenance of Lubricant Quantity in
Compressor
The lubricant used to lubricate the compressor circulates through
the system with the refrigerant. Add lubricant to compressor when
replacing any component or after a large gas leakage occurred. It
is important to maintain the speci®ed amount.
If lubricant quantity is not maintained properly, the following mal-
functions may result:
+Lack of lubricant: May lead to a seized compressor
+Excessive lubricant: Inadequate cooling (thermal exchange
interference)

3. Move probe along component approximately 25 to 50 mm (1 to
2 in)/sec.
CHECKING PROCEDURE
To prevent inaccurate or false readings, make sure there is no
refrigerant vapor or tobacco smoke in the vicinity of the
vehicle. Perform the leak test in calm area (low air/wind move-
ment) so that the leaking refrigerant is not dispersed.
1. Turn engine off.
2. Connect a suitable A/C manifold gauge set to the A/C service
ports.
3. Check if the A/C refrigerant pressure is at least 345 kPa (3.452
bar, 3.52 kg/cm
2, 50 psi) above 16ÉC (61ÉF). If less than
speci®cation, evacuate and recharge the system with the speci-
®ed amount of refrigerant.
NOTE: At temperatures below 16ÉC (61ÉF), leaks may not be
detected since the system may not reach 345 kPa
(3.452 bar, 3.52 kg/cm
2, 50 psi).
4. Conduct the leak test from the high side to the low side at points
in alphabetical order (j
a,jb......). Refer to HA-117.
Perform a leak check for the following areas carefully. Clean the
component to be checked and move the leak detector probe
completely around the connection/component.
+Compressor
Check the ®tting of high and low pressure hoses, relief valve
and shaft seal.
+Liquid tank
Check the pressure switch, tube ®tting, weld seams and the
fusible plug mounts.
+Service valves
Check all around the service valves. Ensure service valve caps
are secured on the service valves (to prevent leaks).
NOTE: After removing A/C manifold gauge set from service
valves, wipe any residue from valves to prevent any
false readings by leak detector.
+Cooling unit (Evaporator)
Turn blower fan on ``High'' for at least 15 seconds to dissipate
any refrigerant trace in the cooling unit. Insert the leak detector
probe into the drain hose immediately after stopping the
engine. (Keep the probe inserted for at least ten seconds.)
5. If a leak detector detects a leak, verify at least once by blowing
compressed air into area of suspected leak, then repeat check.
6. Do not stop when one leak is found. Continue to check for
additional leaks at all system components.
7. Start engine.
8. Set the heater A/C control as follows:
a. A/C switch ON
b. Face mode
c. Recirculation switch ON
d. Max cold temperature
e. Fan speed high

Cooling Circuit
System Check
WARNING:
Never remove the radiator cap when the engine is hot; serious
burns could be caused by high pressure ¯uid escaping from
the radiator.
Wrap a thick cloth around cap and carefully loosen it a quar-
ter turn to release built-up pressure. Then remove the cap
completely.
CHECKING COOLING SYSTEM HOSES
Check hoses for proper attachment, leaks, cracks, damage, loose
connections, cha®ng and deterioration.
CHECKING RADIATOR CAP
Apply pressure to radiator cap by means of a cap tester to see if it
is satisfactory.
Radiator cap relief pressure:
78-98kPa
(0.78 - 0.98 bar, 0.8 - 1.0 kg/cm
2, 11 - 14 psi)
SLC226A
SLC613
ENGINE COOLING SYSTEM
LC-9

Pull the negative pressure valve to open it. Check that it closes
completely when released.
CHECKING COOLING SYSTEM FOR LEAKS
Apply pressure to the cooling system by means of a tester to check
for leakage.
Testing pressure:
98 kPa (0.98 bar, 1.0 kg/cm
2, 14 psi)
CAUTION:
Use of pressure higher than the speci®ed value may cause
damage to radiator.
Water Pump
CAUTION:
+When removing water pump assembly, be careful not to
get coolant on drive belts.
+Water pump cannot be disassembled and should be
replaced as a unit.
+After installing water pump, connect hose and clamp
securely, then check for leaks using radiator cap tester.
REMOVAL
1. Drain coolant from radiator and cylinder block.
Cylinder block drain plug (Use proper sealant):
:34-44Nzm (3.5 - 4.5 kg-m, 25 - 33 ft-lb)
Refer to MA section (``Changing Engine Coolant'', ``ENGINE
MAINTENANCE'').
2. Remove radiator shroud.
3. Remove drive belts. Refer to MA section (``Checking Drive
Belts'').
4. Remove fan coupling with fan.
5. Remove water pump.
