7. Move heater TEMP control knob all the way to HOT.
8. Fill radiator with coolant up to the filler neck.
For coolant mixture ratio, refer to MA-19.
9. Fill reservoir tank with coolant up to the MAX level.
Coolant capacity (With reservoir tank):
10.6(9-3/8 Imp qt)
Reservoir tank capacity (for MAX level):
0.75(5/8 Imp qt)
Pour coolant through coolant filler neck slowly to allow air in
system to escape.
10. Install radiator cap.
11. Warm up engine to normal operating temperature.
12. Run engine at 2,000 rpm for 10 seconds and return to idle
speed.
IRepeat 2 or 3 times.
Watch coolant temperature gauge so as not to overheat the
engine.
13. Stop engine and cool it down.
ICool down using a fan to reduce the time.
14. Remove the radiator cap and check coolant level.
IIf necessary, refill radiator up to filler neck with coolant.
15. Refill reservoir tank to Max line with coolant.
16. Repeat step 9 through step 15 two or more times.
17. Warm up engine, and check for sound of coolant flow while
running engine from idle up to 2,000 rpm with heater tempera-
ture control set at several positions between COOL and HOT.
ISound may be noticeable at heater water core.
18. If sound is heard, bleed air from cooling system by repeating
steps 11 through 17 until coolant level no longer drops.
IClean excess coolant from engine.

CHECKING RADIATOR CAP
Apply pressure to radiator cap (side with pressure valve) with 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)
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 with cap tester to check for
leakage.
Testing pressure:
98 kPa (0.98 bar, 1.0 kg/cm
2, 14 psi)
CAUTION:
Use of higher pressure than the specified value may cause
damage to radiator.
Checking and Replacing Fuel Filter and
Draining Water
Be careful not to spill fuel in engine compartment. Place a rag
to absorb fuel.
CHECKING FUEL FILTER
Check fuel filter for fuel leakage, damage and other abnormal
signs.
REPLACING FUEL FILTER
1. Disconnect harness connector and drain fuel.
2. Remove fuel filter using band-type filter wrench.
3. Remove fuel filter and fuel filter sensor.
CAUTION:
Remove fuel filter without spilling fuel. If spilt, wipe off imme-
diately. Be specially careful not to spill fuel on engine mount
insulator.

4. Wipe clean fuel filter mounting surface on fuel filter bracket and
smear a little fuel on rubber seal of fuel filter.
5. Screw fuel filter on until a slight resistance is felt, then tighten
an additional more than 2/3 or a turn.
6. Install fuel filter sensor to new fuel filter. (Type A)
7. Bleed air from fuel filter.
Refer to ªAir Bleedingº in EC section.
8. Start engine and check for leaks.
DRAINING WATER
1. Drain water as follows.
Type A
Loosen drain cock and drain water.
Loosening drain cock four to five turns causes water to start
draining. Do not remove drain cock by loosening it exces-
sively.
If water does not drain properly, move the priming pump up and
down.
Type B
Loosen air bleeder screw from the sedimentor cover and then
loosen drain cock and drain water.
Loosening drain cock four to five turns causes water to start
draining. Do not remove drain cock by loosening it exces-
sively.
2. Bleed air.
Refer to ªAir Bleedingº in EC section.
Checking Fuel Lines
Check fuel lines and tank for proper attachment, leaks, cracks,
damage, loose connections, chafing and deterioration.
CAUTION:
Keep clean parts with compressed air when assembling.
