THERMOSTAT (1.4L/1.6L DOHC)
Removal Procedure
CAUTION : To prevent personal injury, do not remove
the surge tank cap while the engine and the radiator
are hot because the heat causes the system to remain
under pressure. Scalding fluid and steam may be
blown out under pressure.
1. Drain the coolant. Refer to ”Draining and Refilling
the Cooling System” in this section.
2. Loosen the hose clamp on the upper radiator hose
at the thermostat housing.
3. Disconnect the upper radiator hose from the ther-
mostat housing.
4. Loosen the clamp on the bypass hose.
5. Disconnect the bypass hose from the thermostat
housing.
6. Remove the mounting bolts that hold the thermo-
stat housing to the cylinder head.
7. Remove the thermostat housing from the head.
8. Remove the O–ring seal from the head.
9. Check the valve seat for foreign matter that could
prevent the valve from seating properly.
10. Check the thermostat for proper operation. Refer to
”Thermostat Test” in this section.
11. Clean the thermostat housing and the cylinder head
mating surfaces.
Installation Procedure
1. Coat the sealing surface of a new O–ring seal with
Lubriplater®.
2. Install a new O–ring seal into the recess in the cyl-
inder head.
3. Secure the thermostat housing to the cylinder head
with the mounting bolts.
Tighten
