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 toMA-21,
"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.

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 slowly with coolant until coolant spills from the air
relief plugs, then install air relief plugs.
CAUTION:
If the filling rate is too fast, this could lead to air being
mixed in the coolant. Be sure to fill the coolant slowly
according to the rate indicated above.
lReplace the copper washer of the air bleeding plug.
lUse genuine Nissan anti-freeze coolant or equivalent mixed with water (distilled or demineralized).
Refer toMA-17, "
RECOMMENDED FLUIDS AND LUBRICANTS".
lPour coolant through coolant filler neck slowly of less than 2 (1-3/4 lmp qt) a minute to allow air
in system to escape.
3. Fill reservoir tank to specified level.
4. Warm up engine to normal operating temperature without radia-
tor cap installed.
lIf coolant overflows radiator filler hole, install filler cap.
5. 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.
6. 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.
7. Refill reservoir tank to MAX level line with coolant.
