[QR20DE]
ENGINE COOLANT
2. Open drain plugs on cylinder block.
3. Remove reservoir tank and drain coolant.
4. Check drained coolant for contaminants such as rust, corrosion
or discoloration.
If contaminated, flush engine cooling system. Refer toCO-10,
"FLUSHING COOLING SYSTEM".
REFILLING ENGINE COOLANT
1. Install reservoir tank, radiator drain plug and cylinder block drain plug.
Apply sealant to the thread of cylinder block drain plug.
lUse Genuine Liquid Gasket or equivalent.
2. Fill radiator and reservoir tank to specified level.
lUse genuine Nissan anti-freeze coolant or equivalent mixed
with water (distilled or demineralized).
Refer toMA-17, "
RECOMMENDED FLUIDS AND LUBRI-
CANTS".
lPour coolant slowly of less than 2 (2-1/8US qt,1-3/4 lmp
qt) a minute to allow air in system to escape.
3. Warm up engine to normal operating temperature without radia-
tor cap installed.
lIf coolant overflows radiator filler hole, install filler cap.
4. Run engine at 3,000 rpm for 10 seconds and return to idle speed
with radiator cap installed.
lRepeat two or three times.
Watch coolant temperature gauge so as not to overheat the engine.
5. Stop engine and cool down to less than approximately 50°C(122°F).
lCool down using a fan to reduce the time.
lIf necessary, refill radiator up to filler neck with coolant.
6. Refill reservoir tank to MAX level line with coolant.
7. Repeat steps 5 through 7 two or more times with radiator cap installed until coolant level no longer drops.
8. Check cooling system for leaks with engine running.
9. Warm up engine, and check for sound of coolant flow while running engine from idle up to 3,000 rpm with
heater temperature controller set at several position between COOL and WARM.
lSound may be noticeable at heater unit.
10. If sound is heard, bleed air from cooling system by repeating steps 5 through 7 until coolant level no
longer drops.
lClean excess coolant from engine.
FLUSHING COOLING SYSTEM
1. Fill radiator and reservoir tank with water and reinstall radiator cap.

FLUSHING COOLING SYSTEM
1. Fill radiator with water until water spills from the air relief hole, then close air relief flag. Fill radiator and
reservoir tank with water and reinstall radiator cap.
2. Run engine and warm it up to normal operating temperature.
3. Rev engine two or three times under no-load.
4. Stop engine and wait until it cools down.
5. Drain water.
6. Repeat steps 1 through 5 until clear water begins to drain from radiator.
