HINT:
wºNew beltº refer to a belt which has been used 5 minutes
or less on a running engine.
wºUsed beltº refers to a belt which has been used on a running
engine for 5 minutes or more.
wAfter installing a belt, check that it fits properly in the
ribbed grooves.
wCheck by hand to confirm that the belt has not slipped out
of the groove on the bottom of the pulley.
wAfter installing a new belt, run the engine for about 5
minutes and recheck the belt tension.
4. VISUALLY CHECK ALTERNATOR WIRING AND
LISTEN FOR ABNORMAL NOISES
(a) Check that the wiring is in good condition.
(b) Check that there is no abnormal noise from the
alternator white the engine is running.
6. INSPECT CHARGING CIRCUIT WITHOUT LOAD
HINT: If a battery/alternator tester is available, connect the
tester to the charging circuit as per manufacturer's instruc-
tions.
(a) If a tester is not available, connect a voltmeter and ammeter
to the charging circuit as follows:
wDisconnect the wire from terminal B of the alternator and
connect it to the negative H probe of the ammeter.
wConnect the positive (+) probe of the ammeter to terminals
B of the alternator.
wConnect the positive (+) probe of the voltmeter to terminal
B of the alternator.
wGround the negative (±) probe of the voltmeter. 5. INSPECT CHARGE WARNING LIGHT CIRCUIT
(a) Warm up the engine and then turn it off.
(b) Turn off all accessories.
(c) Turn the ignition switch to ºONº. Check that the charge
warning light is lit.
(d) Start the engine. Check that the light goes out.
If the light does not go off as specified, troubleshoot the
charge light circuit.

3. (3S±FE)
REPLACE ENGINE COOLANT
(a) Remove the radiator cap.
CAUTION: To avoid the danger of being burned, do not re-
move it while the engine and radiator are still hot
as fluid and steam can be blown out under pressure.
(b) Drain the coolant from the .radiator and engine drain cocks.
(Engine drain cock at the right rear of engine block.)
(c) Close the drain cocks.
Torque (Engine drain cock):
130 kg±cm (9 ft±Ib, 13 N±m) HINT: If the engine tends to overheat, removal of the
thermostat will adversely effect cooling efficiency.
CHECK AND REPLACEMENT OF
ENGINE COOLANT
1. CHECK ENGINE COOLANT LEVEL AT RESERVE TANK
The coolant level should be between the ºLOWº and
ºFULLº lines.
If low, check for leaks and add coolant up to the ºFULLº
line.
Dirt, leaves or insects on radiator or condenser
Hoses, Water pump, thermostat housing, radiator,
heater, core, plugs or head gasket leakage
Thermostat faulty
Incorrect ignition timing
Electric cooling system faulty
Radiator hose plugged or rotted
Water pump faulty
Radiator plugged or cap faulty
Cylinder head or block cracked or water passage
clogged
2. CHECK ENGINE COOLANT QUALITY
There should not be any excessive deposits of rust or scales
around the radiator cap or radiator filler hole, and the cool-
ant should be free from oil.
If excessively dirty, replace the coolant.
Check thermostat
Reset tinning
Inspect electric cooling system
Replace hose
Replace water pump
Check radiator and cap
Repair as necessary

REMOVAL OF RADIATO
1. DRAIN ENGINE COOLANT (See page CO±4 or 5)
2. REMOVE BATTERY
3. REMOVE IGNITION COIL (2VZ±FE), IGNITER AND
BRACKET ASSEMBLY
4. DISCONNECT COOLANT RESERVOIR HOSE
5. DISCONNECT RADIATOR NOSE
6. DISCONNECT COOLING FAN MOTOR
CONNECTOR(S)
7. (A/T)
DISCONNECT OIL COOLER HOSES
8. REMOVE RADIATOR AND ELECTRIC COOLING
FAN(S)
Remove the two bolts, supports and radiator.
9. REMOVE ELECTRIC COOLING FANS FROM RADIATOR
DISASSEMBLY OF RADIATOR
(See page CO±15)
1. REMOVE TANK PLATE
(a) Raise the claws of the tank plates with SST in the
numerical order shown in the figure.
SST 09230±00010
NOTICE: Be careful not to damage the core plate.
2. INSPECT COOLING SYSTEM FOR LEAKS
(a) Fill the radiator with coolant and attach a radiator cap
tester.
(b) Warm up the engine.
(c) Pump it to 1.2 kg/cm
2 (17.1 psi, 118 kPa), check that
pressure does not drop.
If the pressure drops, check for leaks as the hoses, radiator
or water pump. If no external leaks are found, check the heat-
er core, cylinder block and head.

INSTALLATION OF RADIATOR
1. INSTALL ELECTRIC COOLING FANS TO RADIATOR
2. INSTALL RADIATOR
Place the radiator in position, and install the two supports
with the two bolts.
HINT: After installation, check that the rubber cushion (A)
of the supports are not depressed.
3. (A/T)
CONNECT OIL COOLER HOSES
4. CONNECT COOLING FAN MOTOR CONNECTORS
5. CONNECT RADIATOR HOSES
6. CONNECT COOLANT RESERVOIR HOSE
7. INSTALL IGNITION COIL (2VZ±FE), IGNITER AND
BRACKET ASSEMBLY
8. INSTALL BATTERY

9. FILL WITH ENGINE COOLANT (See page CO±5)
10. START ENGINE AND CHECK FOR LEAKS
11. (A/T)
CHECK AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION (A/T) FLUID
LEVEL
NOTICE: Do not overfill.
(d) Check for water leaks.
HINT: On radiators with resin tanks, there is a clearance
between the core plate and tank plate where a minute
amount of air will remain, giving the appearance of an
air leak when the radiator is submerged in water. There-
fore, before performing the water leak test, first switch
the radiator around in the water until all air bubbles dis-
appear.
7. PAINT TANK PLATE
HINT: If the water leak test checks out okay, allow the radia-
tor to completely dry and then paint the tank plate.
