LIQUID GASKET APPLICATION PROCEDURE
1. Use a scraper to remove all traces of old liquid gasket from
mating surfaces and grooves. Also, completely clean any oil
from these areas.
2. Apply a continuous bead of liquid gasket to mating surfaces.
(Use Genuine Liquid Gasket or equivalent.)

Be sure liquid gasket is 4.0 to 5.0 mm (0.157 to 0.197 in) wide
for SR engine and 3.5 to 4.5 mm (0.138 to 0.177 in) wide for
QG and CD engine (for oil pan).

Be sure liquid gasket is 2.0 to 3.0 mm (0.079 to 0.118 in) wide
(in areas except oil pan).
3. Apply liquid gasket around the inner side of bolt holes (unless
otherwise specified).
4. Assembly should be done within 5 minutes after coating.
5. Wait at least 30 minutes before refilling engine oil and engine
coolant.

Oil Cooler
REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION
1. Drain engine oil and coolant.
2. Remove oil cooler.
3. Installation is in reverse order of removal

Be careful not to burn yourself as engine oil is hot

After installation, run engine for a few minutes and check
for oil leaks.

Do not spill coolant on drive belts.
INSPECTION
1. Check oil cooler for cracks.
2. Check oil cooler for clogging by blowing through coolant inlet.
If necessary, replace oil cooler assembly.

Pull the negative pressure valve to open it.
Check that it closes completely when released.
CHECKING COOLING SYSTEM FOR LEAKS
To check for leakage, apply pressure to the cooling system with a
tester.
Testing pressure:
157 kPa (1.57 bar, 1.6 kg/cm
2, 23 psi)
CAUTION:
Higher than the specified pressure may cause radiator dam-
age.
Water Pump
REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION
1. Drain coolant from radiator.
2. Remove cylinder block drain plug located at left front of cylin-
der block and drain coolant.
3. Remove front RH wheel and engine side cover.
4. Remove drive belts.
5. Remove front engine mounting.
6. Remove water pump.
CAUTION:

When removing water pump assembly, be careful not to
get coolant on drive belt.

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.
7. Before installing, remove all traces of liquid gasket from mat-
ing surface of water pump using a scraper.

Also remove traces of liquid gasket from mating surface
of cylinder block.

REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION
1. Remove lower radiator hose and drain engine coolant.
2. Remove water inlet, then take out thermostat.
3. Before installing, remove all traces of liquid gasket from mat-
ing surface of each part using a scraper.
4. Apply a continuous bead of liquid gasket to mating surface of
each part.

Use Genuine Liquid Gasket or equivalent.
5. Install thermostat with jiggle valve or air bleeder facing upward.

After installation, run engine for a few minutes, and check
for leaks.

Be careful not to spill coolant over engine compartment.
Use a rag to absorb coolant.
INSPECTION
1. Check valve seating condition at ordinary temperatures. It
should seat tightly.
2. Check valve opening temperature and valve lift.
Valve opening temperature°C(°F) 82 (180)
Valve lift mm/°C (in/°F)More than 9/95 (0.35/203)
