WARNING:
Do not remove radiator cap and/or reservoir tank cap when engine is hot. Serious burns could occur
from high pressure engine coolant escaping from radiator and/or reservoir tank.
REMOVAL
1. Remove front engine undercover and middle engine undercover. Refer toEI-15, "FRONT BUMPER".
2. Drain engine coolant from radiator drain plug at the bottom of radiator, and from water drain plug at the
side of cylinder block. Refer toCO-7, "
Changing Engine Coolant"andEM-110, "CYLINDER BLOCK".
CAUTION:
Perform this step when engine is cold.
3. Remove engine cover. Refer toEM-20, "
INTAKE MANIFOLD".
4. Disconnect radiator hoses (upper and lower) from engine side. Refer toCO-11, "
RADIATOR".
5. Remove air inlet pipe and air duct between air cleaner case and turbocharger. Refer toEM-15, "
AIR
CLEANER AND AIR DUCT"andEM-28, "TURBO CHARGER".
6. Remove water outlet, water inlet and thermostat.
7. Remove thermostat housing.
8. Disconnect heater return hose and water hoses at heater return pipe side, and remove heater return pipe.
9. Remove oil level gauge guide mounting bolt, vacuum hoses (to turbocharger boost control solenoid valve)
and spill hose. Refer toEM-36, "
OIL PAN AND OIL STRAINER",EM-20, "INTAKE MANIFOLD"andEM-
44, "INJECTION TUBE AND FUEL INJECTOR".
10. Disconnect water hoses (to EGR cooler) (A/T models), vacuum hoses and heater feed hose at heater
feed pipe side, and remove heater feed pipe. Refer toEM-20, "
INTAKE MANIFOLD".
INSPECTION AFTER REMOVAL
Thermostat
lPlace a string so that it is caught in the valves of the thermostat.
Immerse fully in a container filled with water. Heat while stirring.
lThe valve opening temperature is the temperature at which the
valve opens and falls from the thread.
lContinue heating. Check the full-open lift amount.
lAfter checking the full-open lift amount, lower the water temper-
ature and check the valve closing temperature.
Standard values
lIf out of the standard, replace thermostat.
INSTALLATION
Note the following, and install in the reverse order of removal.
lSecurely insert each hose, and install clamp at a position where it does not interfere with the pipe bulge.
lWhen inserting heater feed pipe end into cylinder head, apply a neutral detergent to O-ring. Then insert it
immediately.

Checking Drive BeltsEBS01EJ4
lBefore inspecting engine, make sure engine has cooled down; wait approximately 30 minutes after engine
has been stopped.
lVisually inspect all belts for wear, damage or cracks on contacting surfaces and edge areas.
lMeasure deflection at the marked point ( ).
CAUTION:
lWhen checking belt deflection immediately after installation, first adjust it to the specified value.
Then, after turning crankshaft two turns or more, re-adjust to the specified value to avoid varia-
tion in deflection between pulleys.
lTighten idler pulley lock nut by hand and measure deflection without looseness.

lAdjust belts with the parts shown below.
CAUTION:
lWhen a new belt is installed as a replacement, adjust it to the specified value under “New” value
because of insufficient adaptability with pulley grooves.
lIf the belt deflection of the current belt is out of the “Limit for re-adjusting”, adjust to the
“Adjusted” value.
lWhen checking belt deflection immediately after installation, first adjust it to the specified value.
Then, after turning crankshaft two turns or more, re-adjust it to the specified value to avoid vari-
ation in deflection between pulleys.
lMake sure the belts are fully fitted into the pulley grooves during installation.
lHandle with care to avoid smearing the belts with engine oil or engine coolant.
lDo not twist or bend the belts with strong force.

smoothly in compliance with the following pressure.

tor (1) part to move rod (2) end as follows:
TROUBLE DIAGNOSIS OF TURBOCHARGER
Preliminary check:
lMake sure that the engine oil level is between MIN and MAX of the oil level gauge. (When engine oil
amount is more than MAX, engine oil flows into the inlet duct through blow-by gas passage, and turbo-
charger is misjudged malfunction.)
lAsk the customer if he/she always runs the vehicle in idle engine speed to cool the engine oil down after
driving.
lReplace the turbocharger assembly when any malfunction is found after unit inspections specified in the
table below.
lIf no malfunction is found after the unit inspections, judge that the turbocharger body has no malfunction.
Check the other parts again.
A: Large possibility
B: Medium possibility
C: Small possibilityA : Dial gauge
Standard (Pressure/rod stroke amount):
:–52.0 to –54.6 kPa (–520 to –546 mbar, –390 to –410
mmHg, –15.4 to –16.1 inHg)/0.2 mm (0.0079 in)

figure.
Use Genuine Liquid Gasket or Equivalent.
8. Install cylinder head rear cover and tighten mounting bolts in
numerical order shown in the figure.
9. Before installing spill tube after installing secondary timing chain, check and adjust valve clearance. Refer
toEM-66, "
Valve Clearance".
10. Hereafter, install in the reverse order of removal.
INSPECTION AFTER INSTALLATION
Inspection for Leaks
The following are procedures for checking fluids leak, lubricates leak and exhaust gases leak.
lBefore starting engine, check oil/fluid levels including engine coolant and engine oil. If less than required
quantity, fill to the specified level. Refer toMA-14, "
RECOMMENDED FLUIDS AND LUBRICANTS".
lUse procedure below to check for fuel leakage.
–Turn ignition switch “ON” (with engine stopped). With fuel pressure applied to fuel piping, check for fuel
leakage at connection points.
–Start engine. With engine speed increased, check again for fuel leakage at connection points.
lRun engine to check for unusual noise and vibration.
lWarm up engine thoroughly to make sure there is no leakage of fuel, exhaust gases, or any oil/fluids
including engine oil and engine coolant.
lBleed air from lines and hoses of applicable lines, such as in cooling system.
lAfter cooling down engine, again check oil/fluid levels including engine oil and engine coolant. Refill to the
specified level, if necessary.
Summary of the inspection items:
*1: Transmission/transaxle/CVT fluid, power steering fluid, brake fluid, etc.
*2: Check engine oil level 10 minutes after engine stopped.
