1998 NISSAN PATROL check oil

Description
In this system, blow-by gas is sucked into the air inlet pipe through
the control valve after oil separation by oil separator in the rocker
cover.
Inspection
BLOW-BY CONTROL VALVE
Check control valve for clogging and abnormalities.
VENTILATION HOSE
1. Check hoses and hose connections for leaks.
2. Disconnect all hoses and clean with compressed air.
If any hose cannot be freed of obstructions, replace.

Inspection (No.2-4nozzles)
Thoroughly clean all disassembled parts with fresh kerosene or
solvent.
+If nozzle needle is damaged or fused, replace nozzle assem-
bly with a new one.
+If end of nozzle needle is seized or excessively discolored,
replace nozzle assembly.
+Check nozzle body and distance piece for proper contact. If
excessively worn or damaged, replace nozzle assembly or dis-
tance piece.
+Check distance piece and nozzle holder for proper contact. If
excessively worn or damaged, replace distance piece or nozzle
holder.
+Check nozzle spring for excessive wear or damage. If exces-
sively worn or damaged, replace it with a new spring.
Cleaning (No.2-4nozzles)
a. Do not touch the nozzle mating surface with your ®ngers.
b. To wash the nozzles, use a wooden stick and brass brush
with clean diesel fuel.
1. Remove any carbon from exterior of nozzle body (except wrap-
ping angle portion) by using Tool.
2. Clean oil sump of nozzle body using Tool.
3. Clean nozzle seat by using Tool.
This job should be performed with extra precautions, since
efficiency of nozzle depends greatly on a good nozzle seat.

ON BOARD DIAGNOSIS LOGIC
This diagnosis continuously monitors the engine coolant temperature.
If the cooling fan or another component in the cooling system malfunctions, engine coolant temperature will
rise.
When the engine coolant temperature reaches an abnormally high temperature condition, a malfunction is
indicated.
Diagnostic Trouble
Code No.Malfunction is detected when ...Check Items
(Possible Cause)
28+Cooling fan does not operate properly (Overheat).
+Cooling fan system does not operate properly (Over-
heat).
+Engine coolant was not added to the system using
the proper ®lling method.+Harness or connectors
(The cooling fan circuit is open or shorted.)
+Cooling fan
+Radiator hose
+Radiator
+Radiator cap
+Water pump
+Thermostat
+Fan belt
+Engine coolant temperature sensor
For more information, refer to ``MAIN 12
CAUSES OF OVERHEATING'', EC-120.
CAUTION:
When a malfunction is indicated, be sure to replace the coolant following the procedure in the MA
section (``Changing Engine Coolant'', ``ENGINE MAINTENANCE''). Also, replace the engine oil.
a. Fill radiator with coolant up to speci®ed level with a ®lling speed of 2 liters per minute. Be sure to
use coolant with the proper mixture ratio. Refer to MA section (``Anti-freeze Coolant Mixture Ratio'',
``RECOMMENDED FLUIDS AND LUBRICANTS'').
b. After re®lling coolant, run engine to ensure that no water-¯ow noise is emitted.

CHECK COOLING SYSTEM FOR LEAK.
Apply pressure to the cooling system with
a tester, and check if the pressure drops.
Testing pressure:
157 kPa (1.57 bar, 1.6 kg/cm
2, 23 psi)
Pressure should not drop.
CAUTION:
Higher than the speci®ed pressure may
cause radiator damage.
OK
cNG
Check the following for
leak.
+Hose
+Radiator
+Water pump
Refer to LC section (``Water
Pump'').
CHECK RADIATOR CAP.
Apply pressure to cap with a tester.
Radiator cap relief pressure:
78 - 98 kPa (0.78 - 0.98 bar, 0.8 - 1.0
kg/cm
2, 11 - 14 psi)
OK
cNG
Replace radiator cap.
CHECK THERMOSTAT.
1. Check valve seating condition at normal
room temperatures.
It should seat tightly.
2. Check valve opening temperature and
valve lift.
Valve opening temperature:
82ÉC (180ÉF) [standard]
Maximum valve lift:
More than 10 mm/95ÉC
(0.39 in/203ÉF)
3. Check if valve is closed at 5ÉC (9ÉF)
below valve opening temperature.
For details, refer to LC section (``Thermo-
stat'').
OK
cNG
Replace thermostat.
Check engine coolant temperature sensor.
Refer to ``COMPONENT INSPECTION'',
EC-82.
OK
cNG
Replace engine coolant
temperature sensor.
If the cause cannot be isolated, go to
``MAIN 12 CAUSES OF OVERHEATING''
on next page.
INSPECTION END
Perform FINAL CHECK by the following procedure after repair
is completed.
1. Warm up engine. Run the vehicle for at least 20 minutes. Pay
attention to engine coolant temperature gauge on the instrument
panel. If the reading shows an abnormally high temperature,
another part may be malfunctioning.
2. Stop vehicle and let engine idle. Check the intake and exhaust
systems for leaks by listening for noise or visually inspecting the
components.
3. Allow engine to cool and visually check for oil and coolant leaks.
Then, perform ``OVERALL FUNCTION CHECK''.

3. After-glow system
a. Connect ``S'' terminal to starter motor.
b. Start engine and read voltage.
Voltage:
Battery voltage for 5* minutes
* Engine coolant temperature is lower than 50ÉC
(122ÉF).
COMPONENT INSPECTION
Glow relay
1. Check relay for coil continuity.
Continuity should exist.
2. Check relay for proper operation.
Coil voltage Continuity Contact point
0V No OFF
12V Yes ON
Glow plug
1. Remove glow plug connecting plate.
2. Check each glow plug for continuity.
Continuity should exist:
Approximately 0.8W[at 25ÉC (77ÉF)]
+If NG, replace glow plug.
3. Install glow plug connecting plate securely.
+Do not bump glow plug heating element. If it is bumped,
replace glow plug with new one. (If glow plug is dropped
from a height of 10 cm (3.94 in), replace with new one.)
+If glow plug installation hole is contaminated with carbon,
remove using a reamer or suitable tool.
+Hand-tighten glow plug by turning it two to three times,
then tighten using a tool to speci®ed torque.
