INSTALLATION
1. INSTALL WATER PUMP
(a) Install a new O±ring to the water bypass pipe end.
(b) Apply soapy water to the O±ring.
(c) Connect the water pump to the water bypass pipe end.
(d) Install the water pump and a new gasket with the 5 bolts,
2 stud bolts and nut. Uniformly tighten the bolts, stud bolts
and nut in several passes.
Torque:
Bolt: 21 N´m (215 kgf´cm, 15 ft´lbf)
Stud bolt and nut: 18 N´m (185 kgf´cm, 13 ft´lbf)
2. INSTALL WATER INLET AND INLET HOUSING AS-
SEMBLY
(a) Remove any old packing (FIPG) material and be careful
not to drop any oil on the contact surfaces of the water in-
let housing and water pump.
Using a razor blade and gasket scraper, remove all
the old packing (FIPG) material from the gasket sur-
faces and sealing groove.
Thoroughly  clean all components to remove all the
loose material.
Using a non±residue solvent, clean both sealing
surfaces.
(b) Apply seal packing to the sealing groove of water inlet
housing  as shown in the illustration.
Seal packing: Part No. 08826±00100 or equivalent
Install a nozzle that has been cut to a 2 ± 3 mm (0.08
± 0.12 in.) opening.
Parts must be assembled within 3 minutes of ap-
plication. Otherwise the material must be removed
and reapplied.
Immediately remove nozzle from the tube and rein-
stall cap.
(c) Install a new O±ring to the water inlet housing.
(d) Apply soapy water on the O±ring.
(e) Attach the water inlet housing end to the front water by-
pass joint hole.

Cold tire inflation pressure:
Tire sizeFront
kPa (kgf/cm2, psi)
Rear
kPa (kgf/cm2, psi)
P245/70R16220 (2.2, 32)240 (2.4, 35)

P265/65R17220 (2.2, 32)220 (2.2, 32)
(b) Using a dial indicator, check the tire runout.
Tire runout: 3.0 mm (0.118 in.) or less
2. ROTATING TIRE
HINT:
Rotate tires as shown in the illustration.
Rotate as shown in (B) if the spare tire is included in the
rotation.
3. INSPECT WHEEL BALANCE
(a) Check and adjust the Off±the±car  balance.
(b) If necessary, check and adjust the On±the±car balance.
Imbalance after adjustment: 14.0 g (0.031 lb) or less
4. CHECK FRONT SUSPENSION FOR LOOSENESS
5. CHECK STEERING LINKAGE FOR LOOSENESS
6. CHECK BALL JOINT FOR LOOSENESS
7. CHECK SHOCK ABSORBER WORKS PROPERLY
Check if oil leaks.
Check the mounting bushings for wear.
Bounce front and rear of the vehicle.
