Service Precaution
WARNING: IF  SO  EQUIPPED  WITH  A
SUPPLEMENTAL  RESTRAINT  SYSTEM  (SRS),
REFER  TO  THE  SRS  COMPONENT  AND  WIRING
LOCATION VIEW IN ORDER TO DETERMINE
WHETHER YOU ARE PERFORMING SERVICE ON OR
NEAR  THE  SRS  COMPONENTS  OR  THE  SRS
WIRING.  WHEN  YOU  ARE  PERFORMING  SERVICE
ON OR NEAR THE SRS COMPONENTS OR THE SRS
WIRING,  REFER  TO  THE  SRS  SERVICE
INFORMATION.  FAILURE  TO  FOLLOW  WARNINGS
COULD  RESULT  IN  POSSIBLE  AIR  BAG
DEPLOYMENT,  PERSONAL  INJURY,  OR
OTHERWISE UNNEEDED SRS SYSTEM REPAIRS.
CAUTION: Always  use  the  correct  fastener  in  the
proper  location.  When  you  replace  a  fastener,  use
ONLY  the  exact  part  number  for  that  application.
ISUZU  will  call  out  those  fasteners  that  require  a
replacement  after  removal.  ISUZU  will  also  call  out
the  fasteners  that  require  thread  lockers  or  thread
sealant.  UNLESS  OTHERWISE  SPECIFIED,  do  not
use supplemental coatings (Paints, greases, or other
corrosion  inhibitors)  on  threaded  fasteners  or
fastener  joint  interfaces.  Generally,  such  coatings
adversely  affect  the  fastener  torque  and  the  joint
clamping force, and may damage the fastener. When
you  install  fasteners,  use  the  correct  tightening
sequence  and  specifications.  Following  these
instructions can help you avoid damage to parts and
systems.

The cooling system is a pressurized Engine Coolant (EC)
forced  circulation  type  which  consists  of  a  water  pump,
thermostat  cooling  fan,  radiator  and  other  components.
The automatic transmission fluid is cooled by the EC in
radiator.
Water Pump
The EC pump is a centrifugal impeller type and is driven
by a timing belt.

Thermostat
The thermostat is a wax pellet type with a air hole(1) and is
installed in the thermostat housing.
031RW002
Radiator
The radiator is a tube type with corrugated fins. In order to
raise the boiling point of the coolant, the radiator is fitted
with a cap in which the valve is operated at 88.2

Anti Freeze Solution
Relation  between  the  mixing  ratio  and  freezing
temperature  of  the  EC  varies  with  the  ratio  of
anti–freeze solution in water. Proper mixing ratio can
be determined by referring to the chart. Supplemental
inhibitors  or  additives  claiming  to  increase  cooling
capability that have not been specifically approved by
Isuzu are not recommended for addition to the cooling
system.

NOTE: Antifreeze  solution  +  Water  =  Total  cooling
system capacity.

B06RW002
Mixing ratio
Check  the  specific  gravity  of  engine  coolant  in  the
cooling system temperature ranges from 0
C to 50C
using  a  suction  type  hydrometer,  then  determine  the
density of the engine coolant by referring to the table.
NOTE:
1. Even  in  the  areas  where  the  atmospheric
temperature  is  higher  than  0
C,  be  sure  not  to  use
antifreeze solution at a mixing ratio lower than 20% so
that the inside of the engine may not be corroded.
2. If antifreeze solution is used at a mixing ratio higher
than 60%, the specific heat of the coolant falls and the
engine  may  be  overheated.  Moreover,  antifreeze
performance  drop  and  the  coolant  may  be  frozen.
The  density  of  the  solution  must  be  adjusted  as
occasion calls.
Antifreeze  solution  lower  than  20%  may  not  have
sufficient  anticorrosive  performance,  and  therefore,
please never fail to adjust as occasion demands within
the range of 20% to 60%.
