6B-6 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 coolant
(EC) level should be between the "MIN" and "MAX" lines of
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.
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 UNDER 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.
5. Fill the radiator to the base of the filler neck.
Fill the EC reserve tank to "MAX" line when the engine is
cold.
6. Block the drive wheels and firmly apply the parking brake.
Shift an automatic transmission to "P" (Park) or a manual
transmission to neutral.
7. Remove the radiator cap. Start the engine and warm it up a
t
2,500 - 3,000 rpm for about 30 minutes.
8. When the air comes out from the radiator filler neck and the
EC level has gone down, replenish with the EC. Repeat this
procedure until the EC level does not go down. Then stop
the engine and install the radiator cap. Let the engine cool
down.
9. After the engine has cooled, replenish with EC up to the
"MAX" line of the reserve tank.
10. Start the engine. With the engine running at 3,000 rpm,
make sure there is no running water sound from the heate
r
core (behind the center console).
11. If the running water sound is heard, repeat steps 8 to 10.

Removal
1. Disconnect battery ground cable.
2. Drain engine coolant from the radiator and engine.
3. Disconnect radiator hose from the inlet pipe.
4. Remove thermostat housing.
5. Remove thermostat from thermostat housing.
Inspection
Suspend the thermostat in a water-filled container using thin
wire. Place a thermometer next to the thermostat.
Do not directly heat the thermostat.
Gradually increase the water temperature. Stir the water so
that the entire water is same temperature.
Confirm the temperature when the valve first begins to open.
Valve opening temperature 92
 C (197.6

Confirm the temperature when the valve is fully opened.
Valve full open temperature 107
 C(224.6

Make necessary repair and parts replacement if extreme wear
or damage is found during inspection.
Installation
1. Before installing thermostat, coat sealing surface with
silicon grease.
2. Install O-ring.
3. Install thermostat housing and tighten bolts to the specified
torque.
Torque: 15 N

4. Installation rubber hose.
5. Replenish engine coolant (EC).
6. Start engine and check for EC leakage.













Fan Clutch with Cooling Fan
Inspection and Repair
Make necessary correction or parts replacement if wear,
damage or any other abnormal condition are found through
inspection.

Visually inspect for damage, leak (silicon grease) or other
abnormal conditions.
1. Inspection (on-vehicle)
1) Turn the fan clutch by hand when in a low temperature
condition before starting the engine, and confirm that it
can be turned readily.
2) Start the engine to warm it up until the temperature at the
fan clutch portion gets to around 80C. Then stop the
engine and confirm that the fan clutch can be turned with
considerable effort (clutch torque) when turned by hand.

6B-12 ENGINE COOLING


Inspection
Radiator Cap
Measure the valve opening pressure of the pressurizing valve
with a radiator filler cap tester.
Replace the cap if the valve opening pressure is outside the
standard range.
Valve opening pressure kPa (psi) 88.3 – 103.0
(13.5 – 15.7)
Cap tester: 5-8840-0277-0
Adapter: 5-8840-2603-0
Check the condition of the vacuum valve in the center of the
valve seat side of the cap. If considerable rust or dirt is found,
or if the valve seat cannot be moved by hand, clean or replace
the cap.
Valve opening vacuum kPa (psi) 1.9 - 4.9
(0.28 - 0.71)



Radiator Core
1. A bent fin may result in reduced ventilation and overheating
may occur. All bent fins must be straightened. Pay close
attention to the base of the fin when it is being straightened.
2. Remove all dust, bugs and other foreign material.
Flushing the Radiator
Thoroughly wash the inside of the radiator and the engine
coolant passages with cold water and mild detergent. Remove
all sign of scale and rust.
Cooling System Leakage Check
Use a radiator cap tester to force air into the radiator through
the filler neck at the specified pressure of 196 kPa (28.5 psi)
with a cap tester:

Leakage from the radiator

Leakage from the coolant pump

Leakage from the water hoses

Check the rubber hoses for swelling.
Cap tester: 5-8840-0277-0
Adapter: 5-8840-2603-0

ENGINE COOLING 6B-13

Installation
1. Install radiator assembly, taking care not to damage the
radiator core.
2. Install the radiator assembly.
3. Connect reserve tank hose.
4. Connect radiator inlet hose and outlet hose.
5. Pour engine coolant up to filler neck of radiator, and up to
MAX mark of reserve tank.
Important operation (in case of 100% engine coolan
t
change) procedure for filling with engine coolant.

Remove radiator cap.

Fill with engine coolant (EC) to the radiator filler neck.

Fill with EC to the "MAX" line on the reservoir tank.

Start the engine with the radiator cap removed and bring to
operating temperature by running engine at 2,500 - 3,000
rpm for 30 minutes.

By EC temperature gauge reading make sure that the
thermostat is open.

If air bubbles come up to the radiator filler neck, replenish
with EC. Repeat until the EC level does not drop any further.
Install the radiator cap and stop the engine.

Replenish EC to the "MAX" line on the reservoir tank and
leave as it is until the engine gets cool.


After the engine gets cool, start the engine and make sure
there is no water running noise heard from the heater core
while the engine runs at 3000 rpm.

Should water running noise be heard, repeat the same
procedure from the beginning.

ENGINE FUEL (C24SE) 6C-3


When working on the fuel system, there are several things to
keep in mind:


Any time the fuel system is being worked on, disconnect the
negative battery cable except for those tests where battery
voltage is required.


Always keep a dry chemical (Class B) fire extinguisher near
the work area.

Replace all pipes with the same pipe and fittings that were
removed.

Clean and inspect "O" rings. Replace if required.


Always relieve the line pressure before servicing any fuel
system components.

Do not attempt repairs on the fuel system until you have
read the instructions and checked the pictures relating to
that repair.

Adhere to all Notices and Cautions.
All gasoline engines are designed to use only unleaded
gasoline. Unleaded gasoline must be used for proper emission
control system operation.
Its use will also minimize spark plug fouling and extend engine
oil life. Using leaded gasoline can damage the emission control
system and could result in loss of emission warranty coverage.
All cars are equipped with an Evaporative Emission Control
System. The purpose of the system is to minimize the escape
of fuel vapors to the atmosphere.



Service Precaution
CAUTION:
Always use the correct fastener in the proper location.
When you replace a fastener, use ONLY the exact part
number for that application. ISUZU will call out those
fasteners that require a replacement after removal. ISUZU
will also call out the fasteners that require thread lockers
or thread sealant. UNLESS OTHERWISE SPECIFIED, do
not use supplemental coatings (Paints, greases, or othe
r
corrosion inhibitors) on threaded fasteners or fastene
r
joint interfaces. Generally, such coatings adversely affect
the fastener torque and the joint clamping force, and may
damage the fastener. When you install fasteners, use the
correct tightening sequence and specifications. Following
these instructions can help you avoid damage to parts
and systems.
