6B – 6 ENGINE COOLING



110RS001
RADIATOR
The radiator is a tube type with corrugated fins. In order to
raise the boiling point of the coolant, the radiator is fitted with a
cap in which the valve is operated at 93.3

122.7 kPa (13.5

17.8 psi) pressure. (No oil cooler provided for M/T)

Antifreeze Solution
NOTE: Antifreeze solution + Water = Total cooling system
capacity.

NOITE:
To maintain the corrosion resistance of the aluminum
radiator, water and antifreeze must be combined in a 1:1
solution (50% antifreeze and 50% water)

6B – 8 ENGINE COOLING
Draining and Refilling Cooling System
Before draining the cooling system, inspect the system and
perform any necessary service to ensure that it is clean, does
not leak and is in proper working order. The engine coolan
t
(EC) level should be between the “MIN" and “MAX" lines o
f
reserve tank when the engine is cold. If low, check for leakage
and add EC up to the “MAX" line.
There should not be any excessive deposit of rust or scales
around the radiator cap or radiator filler hole, and the EC
should also be free from oil.
Replace the EC if excessively dirty.


P1010064
1. Completely drain the cooling system by opening the drain
plug at the bottom of the radiator.

2. Remove the radiator cap.
WARNING: To avoid the danger of being burned, do not
remove the cap while the engine and radiator are still hot.
Scalding fluid and steam can be blown out unde
r
pressure.
3. Disconnect all hoses from the EC reserve tank.
Scrub and clean the inside of the reserve tank with soap and water. Flush it well with clean water, then drain it.
Install the reserve tank and hoses.
4. Refill the cooling system with the EC using a solution that is at least 50 percent antifreeze.

Procedure for filling with coolant (in case of full change)
 Make sure that the engine is cool.
 Open radiator cap pour coolant up to filler neck.
 Pour coolant into reservoir tank up to “MAX" line.
 Tighten radiator cap and start the engine. After idling for 2
to 3 minutes, stop the engine and reopen radiator cap. If the
water level is lower, replenish.
WARNING: When the coolant is heated to a high
temperature, be sure not to loosen or remove the radiato
r
cap. Otherwise you might get scalded by not vapor or
boiling water. To open the radiator cap, put a piece of
thick cloth on the cap and loosen the cap slowly to reduce
the pressure when the coolant has become cooler.

ENGINE COOLING 6B – 9

 After tightening radiator cap, warm up the engine at about
2000 rpm. Set heater adjustment to the highest temperature
position, and let the coolant circulate also into heater wate
r
system.
 Check to see the thermostat has opened through the
needle position of water thermometer, conduct a 5–minute
idling again and stop the engine.
 When the engine has been cooled, check filler neck fo
r
water level and replenish if required. Should extreme
shortage of coolant is found, check the cooling system and
reservoir tank hose for leakage.
 Pour coolant into the reservoir tank up to “MAX" line.
