Engine Coolant
COOLING
11) Wait for one minute after the engine stops,
open the radiator cap. If the engine coolant level
drops, add engine coolant into radiator up to the fill-
er neck position.
12) Perform the procedures 10) and 11) again.
13) Attach the radiator cap and reservoir tank cap
properly.
14) Start the engine and operate the heater at max-
imum hot position and the blower speed setting to
“LO.”
15) Run the engine at 2,000 rpm or less until radia-
tor fan starts and stops.
NOTE:
•Be careful with the engine coolant temperature
gauge to prevent overheating.
•If the radiator hose becomes harden with the
pressure of engine coolant, air bleeding operation
seems to be almost completed.
16) Stop the engine and wait until the engine cool-
ant temperature lowers to 30°C (86°F).
17) Open the radiator cap. If the engine coolant lev-
el drops, add engine coolant into radiator up to the
filler neck position and reservoir tank to the “FULL”
level.
18) Attach the radiator cap and reservoir tank cap
properly.
19) Set the heater setting to maximum hot position
and the blower speed setting to “LO” and start the
engine. Perform racing at less than 3,000 rpm. If
the flowing sound is heard at this time, perform the
procedures from 15) again.

1. RELATIONSHIP OF SUBARU COOLANT
CONCENTRATION AND FREEZING TEM-
PERATURE
The concentration and safe operating temperature
of SUBARU coolant is shown in the diagram. Mea-
suring the temperature and specific gravity of the
coolant will provide this information.
[Example]
If the coolant temperature is 25°C (77°F) and its
specific gravity is 1.054, the concentration is 35%
(point A), the safe operating temperature is –14°C
(7°F) (point B), and the freezing temperature is –
20°C (–4°F) (point C).

Spark Plug
IGNITION
2) Carbon fouled:
Dry fluffy carbon deposits on insulator and elec-
trode are mostly caused by slow speed driving in
the city, weak ignition, too rich fuel mixture and dirty
air cleaner.
3) Oil fouled:
Wet black deposits show oil entrance into the com-
bustion chamber through worn rings and pistons or
excessive clearance between valve guides and
stems.
4) Overheating:
White or light gray insulator with black or brown
spots and bluish burnt electrodes indicate engine
overheating. Moreover, the appearance results
from incorrect ignition timing, loose spark plugs,
wrong selection of fuel, hotter range plug, etc.
D: ADJUSTMENT
Clean the spark plugs using a wire brush. Clean
and remove the carbon or oxide deposits. But do
not wear away ceramic insulator at this time. If de-
posits are too stubborn, replace the spark plugs.
After cleaning the spark plugs, measure the spark
plug gap using a gap gauge.
NOTE:
Do not use a plug cleaner because the spark plugs
are applied with iridium tip.
Spark plug gap L:
0.7 — 0.8 mm (0.028 — 0.031 in)
