3. Install pressure gauge.
4. Start engine and warm it up to normal operating temperature.
5. Check oil pressure with engine running under no-load.

(3.19 - 4.25, 3.25 - 4.33, 46.2 - 61.6)
If difference is extreme, check oil passage and oil pump for oil
leaks.
6. Install oil pressure switch with sealant.
Use proper liquid sealant.
Oil pressure switch:
:10-16Nzm (1.0 - 1.6 kg-m, 87 - 139 in-lb)
Oil Pump
REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION
1. Disconnect battery terminal.
2. Drain engine oil.
3. Drain coolant from radiator and cylinder block. Refer to MA
section (``Changing Engine Coolant'', ``ENGINE MAINTE-
NANCE'').
4. Remove radiator shroud.
5. Remove drive belts. Refer to MA section (``Checking Drive
Belts'').
6. Remove crankshaft pulley and front upper and lower belt cov-
ers. Refer to EM section (``TIMING BELT'').
7. Remove oil pan. Refer to EM section (``OIL PAN'').
8. Remove oil strainer.
9. Remove oil pump assembly.
10. Installation is in reverse order of removal.
+Before installing oil pump, remove liquid gasket from mating
surface of oil pump using a scraper.
Be sure liquid gasket in grooves is also removed.
+Remove liquid gasket from mating surface of cylinder block.
+Clean all traces of liquid gasket using white gasoline.

Cooling Circuit
System Check
WARNING:
Never remove the radiator cap when the engine is hot; serious
burns could be caused by high pressure ¯uid escaping from
the radiator.
Wrap a thick cloth around cap and carefully loosen it a quar-
ter turn to release built-up pressure. Then remove the cap
completely.
CHECKING COOLING SYSTEM HOSES
Check hoses for proper attachment, leaks, cracks, damage, loose
connections, cha®ng and deterioration.
CHECKING RADIATOR CAP
Apply pressure to radiator cap by means of a cap tester to see if it
is satisfactory.
Radiator cap relief pressure:
78-98kPa
(0.78 - 0.98 bar, 0.8 - 1.0 kg/cm
2, 11 - 14 psi)

Pull the negative pressure valve to open it. Check that it closes
completely when released.
CHECKING COOLING SYSTEM FOR LEAKS
Apply pressure to the cooling system by means of a tester to check
for leakage.
Testing pressure:
98 kPa (0.98 bar, 1.0 kg/cm
2, 14 psi)
CAUTION:
Use of pressure higher than the speci®ed value may cause
damage to radiator.
Water Pump
CAUTION:
+When removing water pump assembly, be careful not to
get coolant on drive belts.
+Water pump cannot be disassembled and should be
replaced as a unit.
+After installing water pump, connect hose and clamp
securely, then check for leaks using radiator cap tester.
REMOVAL
1. Drain coolant from radiator and cylinder block.
Cylinder block drain plug (Use proper sealant):
:34-44Nzm (3.5 - 4.5 kg-m, 25 - 33 ft-lb)
Refer to MA section (``Changing Engine Coolant'', ``ENGINE
MAINTENANCE'').
2. Remove radiator shroud.
3. Remove drive belts. Refer to MA section (``Checking Drive
Belts'').
4. Remove fan coupling with fan.
5. Remove water pump.

Radiator
REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION
1. Remove under cover.
2. Drain coolant from radiator drain plug.
3. Disconnect radiator upper and lower hoses.
4. Remove radiator lower shroud.
5. Disconnect reservoir tank hose.
6. Remove radiator.
7. After repairing or replacing radiator, install any part removed in
reverse order of removal.

Radiator (Aluminum type)
Aluminum radiator can be disassembled by using special proce-
dures and special service tools.
DISASSEMBLY
1. Remove tank with Tool.
+Grip the crimped edge and bend it upwards so that Tool slips
off.
Do not bend excessively.

+In areas where Tool cannot be used, use a screwdriver to bend
the edge up.
Be careful not to damage tank.
2. Make sure the edge stands straight up.
3. Remove oil cooler from tank. (A/T model only)
ASSEMBLY
1. Install oil cooler.
Pay attention to direction of conical washer.
2. Clean contact portion of tank.
3. Install sealing rubber.
Push it in with ®ngers.
Be careful not to twist sealing rubber.
