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

(f) Alternately loosen and remove No. 2 bearing cap bolts 9
and 10.
HINT:
wAs bearing cap bolts 9 and 10 are loosened, check that the
camshaft is being lifted out straight and level, after breaking
adhesion on the front bearing cap.
wIf the camshaft is not being lifted out straight and level, re-
tighten bearing cap bolts 9 and 10. Reverse the order of
above steps from (f) to (a) and reset the knock pin of the in-
take camshaft at 80 ± 115° BTDC, and repeat steps from (b)
to (f) once again.
NOTICE: Do not pry on or attempt to force the camshaft
with a tool or other object.
(g) Remove the No. 2 bearing cap and camshaft.
31. DISASSEMBLE EXHAUST CAMSHAFT
(a) Mount the hexagonal wrench head portion of the camshaft
in a vise.
(b) Insert service bolt (A) into the service hole of the cam-
shaft sub±gear.
(c) Using a screwdriver, turn the sub±gear clockwise, and
remove the service bolt (B).
NOTICE: Be careful not to damage the camshaft.
(d) Uniformly loosen and remove bearing cap bolts 3 to 8
in several pass in the sequence shown.
HINT: Do not remove the No. 2 bearing cap bolts at this
stage.
(e) Remove the No. 1, No. 3 and No. 4 bearing caps. (b) Remove the front bearing cap bolts i and 2.
(e) Remove the front bearing cap and oil seal.
NOTICE: If the front bearing cap is not removable by
hand, do not try to remove by force but leave as it is
without bolts.
