Leakage Test
1. Run the engine to be the coolant temperature 80_C.
2. Remove the fuel injection nozzle.
3. Open the coolant subtank cap.
4. Check the coolant level and replenish if necessary.
5. Open the oil filler cap.
6. Remove the air cleaner cover and element.
7. Position the piston at TDC.
8. Install the connector (1) and connection piece (2).
9. Calibrate the tester and connect the connection
hose (3)
10. Pressurize with compressed air and compare the
pressure changes with permissible pressure leak-
age.
11. If permissible pressure leakage is out of standard,
check followings :
-- Intake and exhaust lines.
-- Sounds in oil filler area.
-- Air bubbles in radiator coolant.
12. Do pressure leakage test for the remaining cylinders
according to the firing order.
DOM 662LA Engine : 1-- 2-- 4-- 5-- 3
DOM 661LA Engine : 1-- 3-- 4-- 2
13. Remove the tester.
14. Close the coolant pressure cap and oil filler cap.
15. Install the air cleaner element and cover.
16. Install the fuel injection nozzle.

Caution: Disconnect the negative battery cable before removing or installing any electrical unit or when a
tool or equipment could easily come in contact with exposed electrical terminals. Disconnecting this cable
will help prevent personal injury and damage to the vehicle. The ignition must also be in LOCK unless other -
wise noted.

Tools Required
124589152100Tester
Test
1. Loosen the pressure cap by 1 notch and remove the
cap after.
Notice
Do not remove radiator cap when coolant is above
90°C.
2. Add the coolant to the arrow mark of coolant reser-
voir.
3. Connect the special tool to the injector of reservoir
and apply 1.4bar pressure.
Tester 124 589 15 21 00
4. If the pressure on the tester drops, check the hose,
pipe and leakage and, replace or retighten.

DRAIN AND FILLING OF COOLANT
Preceding Work : Removal of skid plate
Drain / Filling
1. Loosen the pressure cap of reservoir by 1 notch and
remove pressure and then loosen the cap.
Notice
Do not remove radiator cap when coolant is above
90°C.
2. Open the drain plug and drain the coolant.
Notice
Collect the coolant by using the proper bottle.
3. Remove the drain plug(1) and seal(2) of cylinder
block and drain the coolant.
4. Replace the seal to new one and tighten the drain
plug.
Installation Notice
Tightening Torque30 N∙m (22 lb-ft)
5. Tighten the drain plug of the lower radiator.
6. Fill the coolant through coolant reservoir -- tank.
Notice
DA proportion of 50% by volume of water / anticor-
rosion must be ensured.
7. After engine is running at idle speed, check the level
of coolant. If necessary, add enough specified cool-
ant.
