MAINTENANCE AND REPAIR
ON–VEHICLE SERVICE
DRAINING AND REFILLING THE
COOLING SYSTEM
CAUTION : Do not remove the surge tank cap while
the engine and the radiator are hot. Scalding fluid and
steam may be blown out under pressure.
1. Place a pan below the vehicle to catch the draining
coolant.
2. Remove the surge tank cap.
3. Unplug the drain cock.
CAUTION : Dispose of the used coolant to a used
coolant holding tank to be picked up with the used oil
for disposal. Never pour the used coolant down the
drain. Ethylene glycol antifreeze is an extremely toxic
chemical. Disposing of it into the sewer system or the
ground water can contaminate the local environment.
4. Catch the escaping fluid in a drain pan.
5. Remove all sludge and dirt from inside the surge
tank. Refer to ”Surge Tank” in this section.
6. Plug the drain cock.
7. Add the clean water to the surge tank.
8. Fill the tank slowly so that the upper reservoir hose
remains above the water line. This allows the air
inside the cooling system to escape.
9. Start the engine.
10. Run the engine until the thermostat opens. You can
tell the thermostat is open when both radiator
hoses are hot to the touch.
11. Stop the engine.
12. Repeat Steps 1 through 9 until the drained water is
clear and free of coolant and rust.
Notice : Never use an antifreeze mixture more concen-
trated than 60 percent antifreeze to 40 percent water. The
solution freezing point increases above this concentration.
13. Fill the cooling system through the surge tank with
a mixture of ethylene glycol antifreeze and water.
The mixture must be at least 50 percent antifreeze,
but not more than 60 percent antifreeze.
14. Fill the surge tank to the specified MAX fill mark on
the outside of the tank.

FUEL SYSTEM PRESSURE RELIEF
Procedure
CAUTION : The fuel system is under pressure. To
avoid fuel spillage and the risk of personal injury or
fire, it is necessary to relieve the fuel system pressure
before disconnecting the fuel lines.
1. Remove the fuel cap.
2. Remove the fuel pump fuse Ef18 from the engine
fuse block.
3. Start the engine and allow the engine to stall.
4. Crank the engine for an additional 10 seconds.
FUEL TANK
Removal Procedure
CAUTION : The fuel system is under pressure. To
avoid fuel spillage and the risk of personal injury or
fire, it is necessary to relieve the fuel system pressure
before disconnecting the fuel lines.
1. Relieve the fuel pressure. Refer to ” Fuel System
Pressure Relief ” in this section.
2. Disconnect the negative battery cable.
3. Drain the fuel tank.
4. Remove the front muffler. Refer to Section 1G, Ex-
haust System
5. Remove the fuel tank filler tube clamp at the fuel
tank.
6. Disconnect the fuel tank filler tube.
7. Disconnect the fuel vapor line near the fuel tank
filler tube.
8. Disconnect the fuel pump harness connector.

tentially interfere with the operation of the Exhaust Gas
Recirculation (EGR) valve and thereby turn on the MIL.
Small leaks in the exhaust system near the post catalyst
oxygen sensor can also cause the MIL to turn on.
Aftermarket electronics, such as cellular phones, stereos,
and anti–theft devices, may radiate electromagnetic inter-
ference (EMI) into the control system if they are improperly
installed. This may cause a false sensor reading and turn
on the MIL.
Environment
Temporary environmental conditions, such as localized
flooding, will have an effect on the vehicle ignition system.
If the ignition system is rain–soaked, it can temporarily
cause engine misfire and turn on the MIL.
Refueling
A new EOBD diagnostic checks the integrity of the entire
Evaporative (EVAP) Emission system. If the vehicle is re-
started after refueling and the fuel cap is not secured cor-
rectly, the on–board diagnostic system will sense this as
a system fault, turn on the MIL, and set DTC P0440.
Vehicle Marshaling
The transportation of new vehicles from the assembly
plant to the dealership can involve as many as 60 key
cycles within 2 to 3 miles of driving. This type of operation
contributes to the fuel fouling of the spark plugs and will
turn on the MIL with a set DTC P0300.
Poor Vehicle Maintenance
The sensitivity of EOBD diagnostics will cause the MIL to
turn on if the vehicle is not maintained properly. Restricted
air filters, fuel filters, and crankcase deposits due to lack
of oil changes or improper oil viscosity can trigger actual
vehicle faults that were not previously monitored prior to
EOBD. Poor vehicle maintenance can not be classified as
a ”non–vehicle fault,” but with the sensitivity of EOBD
diagnostics, vehicle maintenance schedules must be
more closely followed.
Severe Vibration
The Misfire diagnostic measures small changes in the
rotational speed of the crankshaft. Severe driveline vibra-
tions in the vehicle, such as caused by an excessive
amount of mud on the wheels, can have the same effect
on crankshaft speed as misfire and, therefore, may set
DTC P0300.
Related System Faults
Many of the EOBD system diagnostics will not run if the
engine controlmodule (ECM) detects a fault on a related
system or component. One example would be that if the
ECM detected a Misfire fault, the diagnostics on the cata-
lytic converter would be suspended until the Misfire fault
was repaired. If the Misfire fault is severe enough, the cat-
alytic converter can be damaged due to overheating andwill never set a Catalyst DTC until the Misfire fault is re-
paired and the Catalyst diagnostic is allowed to run to
completion. If this happens, the customer may have to
make two trips to the dealership in order to repair the ve-
hicle.
SERIAL DATA COMMUNICATIONS
Class II Serial Data Communications
Government regulations require that all vehicle manufac-
turers establish a common communication system. This
vehicle utilizes the ”Class II” communication system. Each
bit of information can have one of two lengths: long or
short. This allows vehicle wiring to be reduced by transmit-
ting and receiving multiple signals over a single wire. The
messages carried on Class II data streams are also priori-
tized. If two messages attempt to establish communica-
tions on the data line at the same time, only the message
with higher priority will continue. The device with the lower
priority message must wait. Themost significant result of
this regulation is that it provides scan tool manufacturers
with the capability to access data from any make or model
vehicle that is sold.
The data displayed on the other scan tool will appear the
same, with some exceptions. Some scan tools will only be
able to display certain vehicle parameters as values that
are a coded representation of the true or actual value. On
this vehicle the scan tool displays the actual values for ve-
hicle parameters. It will not be necessary to perform any
conversions from coded values to actual values.
ON–BOARD DIAGNOSTIC (EOBD)
On–Board Diagnostic Tests
A diagnostic test is a series of steps, the result of which is
a pass or fail reported to the diagnostic executive. When
a diagnostic test reports a pass result, the diagnostic
executive records the following data:
S The diagnostic test has been completed since the
last ignition cycle.
S The diagnostic test has passed during the current
ignition cycle.
S The fault identified by the diagnostic test is not cur-
rently active.
When a diagnostic test reports a fail result, the diagnostic
executive records the following data:
S The diagnostic test has been completed since the
last ignition cycle.
S The fault identified by the diagnostic test is current-
ly active.
S The fault has been active during this ignition cycle.
S The operating conditions at the time of the failure.
Remember, a fuel trim Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC)
may be triggered by a list of vehicle faults. Make use of all
information available (other DTCs stored, rich or lean con-
dition, etc.) when diagnosing a fuel trim fault.
