< PRECAUTION >[HR16DE]
PRECAUTIONS
1. Remove old liquid gasket adhering to the liquid gasket applica-
tion surface and the mating surface, using scraper.
• Remove liquid gasket completely from the groove of the liquidgasket application surface, bolts, and bolt holes.
2. Thoroughly clean the mating surfaces and remove adhering moisture, grease and foreign materials.
3. Attach liquid gasket tube to Tool.
Use Genuine RTV Silicone Seal ant or equivalent. Refer to GI-42, "
Recommended Chemical Prod-
uct and Sealant".
4. Apply liquid gasket without breaks to the specif ied location with the specified dimensions.
• If there is a groove for the liquid gasket application, apply liquid gasket to the groove.
• As for the bolt holes, normally apply liquid gasket inside the holes. Occasionally, it should be applied outside the holes.
Make sure to read the text of service manual.
• Within five minutes of liquid gasket application, install the mat- ing component.
• If liquid gasket protrudes, wipe it off immediately.
• Do not retighten nuts or bolts 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 this manual, observe them.

LEVEL CHECK
• Check if the reservoir tank engine coolant level is within the “MIN”
to “MAX” range when engine is cool.
• Adjust the engine coolant level as necessary.
CHECKING COOLING SYSTEM FOR LEAKS
To check for leaks, apply pressure to the cooling system using suit-
able tool and Tool.
WARNING:
Never remove the radiator cap wh en the engine is hot. Serious
burns could occur from high pressure coolant escaping from
the radiator.
CAUTION:
Higher pressure than specified may cause radiator damage.
Changing Engine CoolantINFOID:0000000005930778
WARNING:
• To avoid being scalded, do not change engine coolant when engine is hot.
• Wrap a thick cloth around radiator cap and carefully remove the cap. First, turn the cap a quarter of a
turn to release built-up pressure. Then turn the cap all the way.
CAUTION:
• Do not spill engine coolant on drive belt.
DRAINING ENGINE COOLANT
1. Open radiator drain plug (1) at the bottom of radiator, and then remove radiator cap.
• Front
When draining all of engine coolant in the system, open
water drain plug on cylinder block. Refer to EM-90
.
CAUTION:
• Perform this step when engine is cold.
• Do not spill engine coolant on drive belt.
2. Remove reservoir tank as necessary, and drain engi ne coolant and clean reservoir tank before installing.
Refer to CO-16, "
Component".
3. Check drained engine coolant for contaminants such as rust, corrosion or discoloration.

ENGINE COOLANT
If contaminated, flush the engine cooling system.
REFILLING ENGINE COOLANT
1. Install the radiator drain plug. Install the reservoir
tank and cylinder block drain plug, if removed for a total
system drain or for engine removal or repair.
• The radiator must be complete ly empty of coolant and water.
• Apply sealant to the threads of the cylinder bl ock drain plugs. Use Genuine High Performance
Thread Sealant or equivalent. Refer to GI-42, "
Recommended Chemical Product and Sealant".
2. If disconnected, reattach the upper radiator hose at the engine side.
3. Set the vehicle heater controls to the full HOT and heat er ON position. Turn the vehicle ignition ON with
the engine OFF as necessary to activate the heater mode.
4. Install the Tool by installing the radiator cap adapter onto the radiator neck opening. Then attach the gauge body assembly
with the refill tube and the venturi assembly to the radiator cap
adapter.
5. Insert the refill hose into the coolant mixture container that is placed at floor level. Make sure the ball valve is in the closed
position.
•Use Genuine NISSAN Long Life Anti-freeze coolant or
equivalent, mixed with distil led water or demineralized
water.
Refer to MA-15, "
Anti-freeze Coolant Mixture Ratio".
6. Install an air hose to the venturi assembly, the air pressure must be within specification.
CAUTION:
The compressed air supply must be equipped with an air dryer.
7. The vacuum gauge will begin to rise and there will be an audible hissing noise. During this process open the ball valve on the refill hose slightly. Coolant will be vi sible rising in the refill hose. Once the refill hose is
full of coolant, close the ball valve. This will purge any air trapped in the refill hose.
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 specifi ed 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 bring 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.

Checking Radiator CapINFOID:0000000005930779
• Check valve seat of radiator 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.
• Pull 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 radi-
ator cap negative-pressure valve.
- Make sure that the valve operates properly in the opening and closing conditions.
• Check radiator cap relief pressure using suitable tool and Tool.
- When connecting the radiator cap to the tester, apply water or coolant to the cap seal surface.
- Replace the radiator cap if ther e is an abnormality in the negative-
pressure valve, or if the open-valve pr essure is outside of the standard values.
• Replace radiator cap if there it does not comply to specifications to the above three checks.
CAUTION:
When installing radiator cap, thoroughly wipe out the radiator filler neck to remove any waxy residue
or foreign material.
Checking RadiatorINFOID:0000000005930780
Check radiator for mud or clogging. If necessary, clean radiator as follows.
• Be careful not to bend or damage radiator fins.
• When radiator is cleaned without removal, remove all surrounding parts such as cooling fan, radiator shroud and horns. Then tape harness and connectors to prevent water from entering.
1. Apply water by hose to the back side of the radiator core vertically downward.
2. Apply water again to all radiator core surface once per minute.
3. Stop washing if any stains no longer flow out from radiator.
4. Blow air into the back side of radiator core vertically downward.
