RADIATOR DISASSEMBLY
1. ASSEMBLE SST
SST 09230±01010
(a) Install the claw to the overhaul handle, inserting it in
the hole in part ªAº as shown in the diagram.
(b) While gripping the handle, adjust the stopper bolt so
that dimension ªBº shown in the diagram is 0.2±0.5
mm (0.008±0.020 in.).
NOTICE: If this adjustment is not performed, the claw
may be damaged.
COMPONENTS FOR DISASSEMBLY AND
ASSEMBLY
± 5S±FE ENGINECOOLING SYSTEMEG1±254

RADIATOR ASSEMBLY
(See Components for Disassembly and Assembly)
1. A/T:
INSTALL OIL COOLER TO LOWER TANK
(a) Clean the 0±ring contact surface of the lower tank
and oil cooler.
(b) Install new 0±rings (1) to the oil cooler (2).
(c) Install the oil cooler with the 0±rings to the lower
tank (3).
(d) Install the plate washers (4) and nuts (5). Torque the
nuts.
Torque: 8.3 N±m (85 kgf±cm, 74 in.±lbf)
(e) Install the pipes (6).
Torque: 22 N±m (220 kgf±cm, 16 ft±lbf)
HINT: Face the pipes in the same direction as before
disassembly.4. A/T:
REMOVE OIL COOLER FROM LOWER TANK
(a) Remove the pipes.
HINT: Make a note of the direction to face the pipes.
(b) Remove the nuts and plate washers.
(c) Remove the oil cooler and 0±rings. 3. REMOVE TANKS AND O±RINGS
(a) Lightly tap the radiator hose inlet (or outlet) with a
soft±faced hammer and remove the tank.
(b) Remove the 0±ring. 2. UNCAULK LOCK PLATES
Using SST to release the caulking, squeeze the handle
until stopped by the stopper bolt.

± 5S±FE ENGINECOOLING SYSTEMEG1±255

6. INSPECT FOR WATER LEAKS
(a) Tighten the drain cock.
(b) Plug the inlet and outlet pipes of the radiator with
SST.
SST 09230 ± 01010
(c) Using a radiator cap tester, apply pressure to the
radiator.
Test pressure:
177 kPa (1.8 kgf/cm
, 26 psi) (b) Check the lock plate height (H) after completing the
caulking.
Plate height:
7.75±8.25 mm (0±3051±0.3248 in.)
If not within the specified height, adjust the stopper
bolt of the handle again and perform the caulking
again.wThe points shown in the illustration and oil cooler
near here (A/T) cannot be staked with the SST.
Use a plier or like object and be careful not to
damage the core plates. After repeating this a few times, fully caulk the lock
plate by squeezing the handle until stopped by the
stopper plate.
SST 09230 ± 01010
HINT:
wDo not stake the areas protruding around the
pipes, brackets or tank ribs.

(d) Inspect for water leaks.
HINT: On radiators with resin tanks, there is a clear±
ance between the tank and lock plate where a minute
amount of air will remain, giving the appearance of an
air leak when the radiator is submerged in water.
Therefore, before performing the water leak test, first
switch the radiator around in the water until all air
bubbles disappear.
7. PAINT LOCK PLATES
HINT: If the water leak test checks out okay, allow the
radiator to completely dry and then paint the lock
plates.
