Engine Cooling System
General Description
Cooling System DescriptionS6RW0D1601001
The cooling system consists of the radiator cap, radiator,
coolant reservoir, hoses, water pump, cooling fan and
thermostat. The radiator is of tube-and-fin type.
Coolant DescriptionS6RW0D1601002
WARNING!
• Do not remove radiator cap to check
engine coolant level; check coolant
visually at the see-through coolant
reservoir. Coolant should be added only to
reservoir as necessary.
• As long as there is pressure in the cooling
system, the temperature can be
considerably higher than the boiling
temperature of the solution in the radiator
without causing the solution to boil.
Removal of the radiator cap while engine is
hot and pressure is high will cause the
solution to boil instantaneously and
possibly with explosive force, spewing the
solution over engine, fenders and person
removing cap. If the solution contains
flammable anti-freeze such as alcohol (not
recommended for use at any time), there is
also the possibility of causing a serious
fire.
• Check to make sure that engine coolant
temperature is cold before removing any
part of cooling system.
• Also be sure to disconnect negative cable
from battery terminal before removing any
part.

The coolant recovery system is standard. The coolant in
the radiator expands with heat, and the coolant is
overflowed to the reservoir.
When the system cools down, the coolant is drawn back
into the radiator.
The cooling system has been filled with a quality coolant
that is a 50/50 mixture of water and ethylene glycol
antifreeze.
This 50/50 mixture coolant solution provides freezing
protection to –36 °C (–33 °F).
• Maintain cooling system freeze protection at –36 °C (–
33 °F) to ensure protection against corrosion and loss
of coolant from boiling. This should be done even if
freezing temperatures are not expected.
• Add ethylene glycol base coolant when coolant has to
be added because of coolant loss or to provide added
protection against freezing at temperature lower than
–36 °C (–33 °F).
NOTE
• Alcohol or methanol base coolant or plain
water alone should not be used in cooling
system at any time as damage to cooling
system could occur.
• Coolant must be mixed with demineralized
water or distilled water.

Coolant Level CheckS6RW0D1606002
WARNING!
To help avoid danger of being burned, do not
remove radiator cap while engine and
radiator are still hot. Scalding fluid and steam
can be blown out under pressure if radiator
cap is taken off too soon.

To check level, lift hood and look at “see-through”
coolant reservoir.
It is not necessary to remove radiator cap to check
coolant level.
When engine is cool, check coolant level in reservoir (1).
A normal coolant level should be between FULL mark
(2) and LOW mark (3) on reservoir (1).
If coolant level is below LOW mark (3), remove reservoir
cap (4) and add proper coolant to reservoir to bring
coolant level up to FULL mark (2).
NOTE
If proper quality antifreeze is used, there is
no need to add extra inhibitors or additives
that claim to improve system. They may be
harmful to proper operation of system, and
are unnecessary expense.

WARNING!
To help avoid danger of being burned, do not
remove radiator cap while engine and
radiator are still hot. Scalding fluid and steam
can be blown out under pressure if cap is
taken off too soon.

1) Check cooling system for leakage or damage.
2) Wash radiator cap and filler neck with clean water by
removing radiator cap when engine is cold.
3) Check coolant for proper level and freeze protection.
4) Using a pressure tester (1), check system and
radiator cap (2) for proper pressure holding capacity.
If replacement of cap is required, use a proper cap
for this vehicle.
NOTE
After installing radiator cap to radiator, make
sure that the ear of cap lines is parallel to
radiator.

Cooling System Flush and RefillS6RW0D1606005
WARNING!
To help avoid danger of being burned, do not
remove radiator cap while engine and
radiator are still hot. Scalding fluid and steam
can be blown out under pressure if cap is
taken off too soon.

NOTE
For detail of coolant specification, refer to
“Coolant Description”.

1) Remove radiator cap when engine is cool as follows.
a) Turn cap counterclockwise slowly until it reaches
a “stop” (Do not press down while turning it).
b) Wait until pressure is relieved (indicated by a
hissing sound) then press down on cap and
continue to turn it counterclockwise.
2) With radiator cap removed, run engine until upper
radiator hose is hot (this shows that thermostat is
open and coolant is flowing through system).
3) Stop engine and drain coolant from radiator drain
plug (1).
4) Close radiator drain plug. Add water until system is
filled and run engine until upper radiator hose is hot
again.
5) Repeat Steps 3) and 4) several times until drained
liquid is nearly colorless.
6) Close radiator drain plug (1) tightly.7) Remove reservoir cap (2) and reservoir (1).
8) Pour out any fluid, scrub and clean inside of
reservoir with soap and water.
Flush it well with clean water and drain, Reinstall
reservoir.
9) Fill reservoir with coolant up to “FULL” level mark (3).
10) Install reservoir cap (2) on reservoir.
11) Fill radiator with coolant up to bottom of radiator filler
neck and install radiator cap, making sure that the
ear of cap lines is parallel to radiator.
12) Run engine at idle speed.
13) Run engine until radiator fan motor is operated.
14) Stop engine and wait until engine comes cooled
down to help avoid danger of being burned.
15) Add coolant to radiator up to bottom of radiator filler
neck, and install radiator cap, making sure that the
ear of cap lines is parallel to radiator.
16) Repeat Step 12) through 15).
17) Confirm that reservoir coolant level is “FULL” level
mark (3). If coolant is insufficient, repeat Step 9) and
10).

foreign matters which would prevent valve from
seating tight.
• Check thermostat seal (3) for breakage, deterioration
or any other damage.
• Check thermostatic movement of wax pellet as
follows:
a. Immerse thermostat (1) in water, and heat water
gradually.
b. Check that valve starts to open at specific
temperature.
Temperature at which valve begins to open
80 – 84 °C (176 – 183 °F)
