4. REMOVE RADIATOR ASSEMBLY
(a) Disconnect the No.1 cooling fan connector.
(b) w/ A/C:
Disconnect the No.2 cooling fan connector.
(c) Disconnect the radiator upper hose from the radiator.
(d) Disconnect the radiator lower hose from the water inlet.
(e) Disconnect the 2 A/T oil cooler hoses from the radiator.

(b) Check the lock plate height (H) after completing the caulk-
ing.
Plate height: 7.75 - 8.25 mm (0.305 - 0.325 in.)
If not within the specified height, adjust the stopper bolt of the
handle again and perform the caulking again.
6. INSPECT FOR WATER LEAKS
(a) Tighten the drain plug.
(b) Plug the inlet and outlet pipes of the radiator with SST.
SST 09230-01010
(c) Using a radiator cap tester, apply pressure to the radiator.
Test pressure: 177 kPa (1.8 kgf/cm
2, 26 psi)
(d) Inspect for leaks.
HINT:
On radiators with resin tanks, there is a clearance between the
tank and lock plate where a minute amount of air will remain,
giving the appearance of an air leak when the radiator is sub-
merged in water. Therefore, before performing the water leak
test, first move radiator around in the water until all air bubbles
disappear.
7. PAINT LOCK PLATES
HINT:
If the water leak test checks out okay, allow the radiator to com-
pletely dry and then paint the lock plates.

3. INSPECT ECT SWITCH
(a) Using an ohmmeter, check that there is no continuity be-
tween the terminals when the coolant temperature is
above 94°C (201°F).
If there is continuity, replace the switch.
(b) Using an ohmmeter, check that there is continuity be-
tween the terminals when the coolant temperature is be-
low 83°C (181°F).
If there is no continuity, replace the switch.

REPLACEMENT
CAUTION:
Prolonged and repeated contact with mineral oil will
result in the removal of natural fats from the skin,
leading to dryness, irritation and dermatitis. In addi-
tion, used engine oil contains potentially harmful
contaminants which may cause skin cancer. Ade-
quate means of skin protection and washing facilities
should be provided.
Care should be taken, therefore, when changing en-
gine oil, to minimize the frequency and length of time
your skin is exposed to used engine oil. Protective
clothing and gloves, that cannot be penetrated by oil,
should be worn. Wash your skin throughly with soap
and water, or use waterless hand cleaner, to remove
any used engine oil. Do not use gasoline, thinners, or
solvents.
In order to preserve the environment, used oil must
be disposed of only at designated disposal sites.
1. DRAIN ENGINE OIL
(a) Remove the oil filler cap.
(b) Remove the oil drain plug and drain the oil into a contain-
er.
2. REPLACE OIL FILTER
(a) Using SST, remove the oil filter.
SST 09228-06501
(b) Clean the filter contact surface on the filter mounting.
(c) Lubricate the filter rubber gasket with engine oil.
(d) Tighten filter until the gasket contacts seat of the filter
mounting. Then using SST, give it an additional 3/4 turn
to seat the filter.
SST 09228-06501
3. FILL WITH ENGINE OIL
(a) Clean and install the oil drain plug with a new gasket.
Torque: 25 N´m (250 kgf´cm, 18 ft´lbf)
(b) Fill the engine with new oil.
