Check thermostatic movement of wax pellet as follows :
a) Immerse thermostat (1) in water, and heat water gradually.
b) Check that valve starts to open at specific temperature.
Temperature at which valve begins to open
: 80 – 84°C (176 – 183°F)

: 95 – 97°C (203°F)
Valve lift
: More than 8 mm at 95°C (203°F)
If valve starts to open at a temperature substantially below or
above specific temperature, thermostat unit should be replaced
with a new one. Such a unit, if reused, will bring about overcool-
ing or overheating tendency.
INSTALLATION
Reverse removal procedure for installation noting the following
points.
When positioning thermostat (1) on thermostat case (2), be
sure to position it so that air bleed valve (3) comes at posi-
tion as shown in figure.

GENERATOR DRIVE BELT TENSION INSPECTION AND
ADJUSTMENT in this section.
Adjust A/C compressor belt tension (if equipped) referring to
Section 1B.

4) Connect battery positive (+) terminal to terminal “b” of relay.
Connect battery negative (–) terminal “a” of relay.
Check continuity between terminal “c” and “d”.
If there is no continuity when relay is connected to the bat-
tery, replace relay.
WATER PUMP/GENERATOR DRIVE BELT
REMOVAL
1) Disconnect negative cable at battery.
2) Loosen drive belt adjusting bolt (2) and generator pivot bolt
(3).
