1991 LEXUS SC400 sensor

6. INSPECT WATER TEMPERATURE SENSORUsing an ohmmeter, measure the resistance between the ter-
minals.
Resistance: Refer to the chart graph
If the resistance is not as specified, replace the sensor.
7. REINSTALL WATER TEMPERATURE SENSOR (a) Install a new gasket to the water temperature sensor.
(b) Install the water temperature sensor.
Torque: 20 N Vm (200 kgf Vcm, 14 ft Vlbf)
(c) Connect the water temperature sensor connector.
8. REINSTALL WATER INLET AND INLET HOUSING (a) Remove any old packing (FIPG) material and be carefulnot to drop any oil on the contact surfaces of the water
inlet housing and water pump.
w Using a razor blade and gasket scraper, remove all
the old packing (FIPG) material from the gasket
surfaces and sealing groove.
w Thoroughly clean all components to remove all the
loose material.
w Using a non±residue solvent, clean both sealing
surfaces.
(b) Apply seal packing to the sealing groove of the water
inlet housing as shown in the illustration.
Seal packing: Part No. 08826±00100 or equivalent
w Install a nozzle that has been cut to a 2±3 mm
(0.08±0.12 in.) opening.
HINT: Avoid applying an excessive amount to the surface.
w Parts must be assembled within 5 minutes of
application. Otherwise the material must be
removed and reapplied.
w Immediately remove nozzle from the tube and
reinstall cap.
(c) Install a new O±ring to the water inlet housing.
(d) Apply soapy water to the O±ring.

(e) Push in the water inlet housing end into the water pumphole.
(f) Install the water inlet and inlet housing assembly with
the two bolts. Alternately tighten the bolts.
Torque: 18 N Vm (185 kgf Vcm, 13 ft Vlbf)
(g) Connect the water by±pass hose to the water inlet
housing.
9. RECONNECT HOSES Connect the following hoses:(1) Upper radiator hose to front water by±pass joint
(2) Lower radiator hose to water inlet
(3) Radiator reservoir hose to front water inlet housing
10. REINSTALL RH IGNITION COIL (a) Install the ignition coil with the two bolts.
(b) Install the cam position sensor connector to the ignitioncoil bracket.
(c) Connect the ignition coil connector.
