OIL COOLER

OIL COOLERPFP:21305
Removal and InstallationEBS00OE8
CAUTION:

Be careful not to get burned when engine and engine oil are hot.

When removing, prepare a shop cloth to absorb any engine oil leakage or spillage.

Completely wipe off any engine oil that adhere to engine and vehicle.
REMOVAL
1. Remove engine undercover.
2. Drain engine coolant by removing cylinder block drain plug and radiator drain plug. Refer to CO-31,
"DRAINING ENGINE COOLANT" and EM-212, "CYLINDER BLOCK" .
3. Remove exhaust front tube. Refer to EX-2, "
EXHAUST SYSTEM" .
4. Remove water hoses.
5. Loosen connecting bolt and remove oil cooler.
INSPECTION AFTER REMOVAL
Check oil cooler for cracks. Check oil cooler for clogging by blowing through coolant inlet. If necessary, replace
oil cooler.
INSTALLATION
Installation is in the reverse order of removal.

Confirm that no foreign objects are adhering to the installation
planes of oil cooler or cylinder block.

Tighten the connecting bolt after aligning the stopper on the cyl-
inder block side with protrusion of oil cooler.
INSPECTION AFTER INSTALLATION
1. Check the engine oil level and the engine coolant level, and add engine oil and engine coolant. Refer to
LU-20, "
ENGINE OIL" and CO-31, "ENGINE COOLANT" .

Measure the clearance with the feeler gauge and the straight-
edge.
Side clearance between inner rotor and oil pump housing (posi-
tion 3)
Side clearance between outer rotor and oil pump housing (posi-
tion 4)

Calculate the clearance between inner rotor and oil pump housing as follows.
–Measure the outer diameter of protruded portion of inner rotor
(position 5).
–Measure the inner diameter of oil pump housing with the inside
micrometer (position 6).
(Clearance) = (Inner diameter of oil pump housing) – (Outer
diameter of inner rotor)
 If measured/calculated values are out of the standard, replace
oil pump assembly.
Regulator Valve Clearance
(Clearance) = (Valve hole diameter) – (Regulator valve outer diame-
ter)

If out of the standard, replace oil pump assembly.
CAUTION:

Coat regulator valve with new engine oil.

Make sure that it falls smoothly into valve hole by its own
weight.Standard : 0.050 - 0.090 mm (0.0020 - 0.0035 in)

Precautions for Liquid GasketEBS00MRX
LIQUID GASKET APPLICATION PROCEDURE
1. Remove old liquid gasket adhering to the liquid gasket application surface and the mating surface.

Remove liquid gasket completely from the liquid gasket application surface, mounting bolts, and bolt
holes.
2. Wipe the liquid gasket application surface and the mating surface with white gasoline (lighting and heating
use) to remove adhering moisture, grease and foreign materials.
3. Attach liquid gasket tube to the tube presser (special service
tool).
Use Genuine Liquid Gasket or equivalent.

Within five minutes of liquid gasket application, install the mat-
ing component.

If liquid gasket protrudes, wipe it off immediately.

Do not retighten mounting bolts or nuts after the installation.

Wait 30 minutes or more after installation before refilling
engine oil and engine coolant.
