ENGINE COOLING SYSTEM
2. DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
1) GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The cooling system maintains the engine temperature at an efficient level during all engine
operating conditions. When the engine is cold, the cooling system cools the engine slowly o
r
not at all. This slow cooling of the engine allows the engine to warm up quickly.
The cooling system includes a radiator and recovery subsystem, cooling fans, a thermostat and
housing, a water pump, and a water pump drive belt. The timing belt drives the water pump.
All components must function properly for the cooling system to operation. The water pump
draws the coolant from the radiator. The coolant then circulates through water jackets in the
engine block, the intake manifold, and the cylinder head. When the coolant reaches the
operating
temperature of the thermostat, the thermostat opens. The coolant then goes back to the
radiator where it cools.
This system directs some coolant through the hoses to the heat core. This provides for heating
and defrosting. The coolant reservoir is connected to the radiator to recover the coolant
displaced by expansion from the high temperatures. The coolant reservoir maintains the correct
coolant level.
The cooling system for this vehicle has no radiator cap or filler neck. The coolant is added to
the cooling system through the coolant reservoir.
2) RADIATOR
This vehicle has a lightweight tube-and-fin aluminum radiator. Plastic tanks are mounted on the
upper and the lower sides of the radiator core.
On vehicles equipped with automatic transaxles, the transaxle fluid cooler lines run through the
radiator tank. A radiator drain plug is on this radiator.
To drain the cooling system, open the drain plug.

ENGINE COOLING SYSTEM
5) WATER PUMP
The belt-driven centrifugal water pump consists of an impeller, a drive shaft, and a belt pulley.
The impeller is supported by a completely sealed bearing.
The water pump is serviced as an assembly and, therefore, cannot be disassembled.
6) ELECTRIC COOLING FAN
Keep hands, tools, and clothing away from the engine cooling fans to help prevent
personal injury. This fan is electric and can turn on even when the engine is not running. -
f a fan blade is bent or damaged in any way, no attempt should be made to repair or reuse
the damaged part.
A bent or damaged fan assembly should always be replaced with a new one to prevent
possible injury. -
The cooling fans are mounted behind the radiator in the engine compartment. The electric
cooling fans increase the flow of air across the radiator fins and across the condenser on ai
r
conditioned (A/C)-equipped vehicles.
This helps to speed cooling when the vehicle is at idle or moving at low speeds.
All models have two fans. The main fan is 320 mm (12.6 inches) in diameter with seven blades
to aid the airflow through the radiator and the condenser. An electric motor attached to the
radiator support drives the fan. The auxiliary fan is 320 mm (12.6 inches) in diameter.
7) A/C OFF OR NON-AC MODEL
The cooling fans are actuated by the engine control module (ECM) using a low-speed
cooling fan relay, a high-speed cooling fan relay and a cooling fan motor relay.
The ECM will turn the cooling fans on at low speed when the coolant temperature reaches
95°C (203°F) and at high speed when the coolant temperature reaches 105°C (221°F).
The ECM will change the cooling fans from high peed to low speed at 100°C (212°F)
and will turn the cooling fans off at 90°C (194°F). ·

ENGINE ELECTRIC SYSTEM
Vehicle accessories are left on overnight.
Slow average driving speeds are used for short periods.
The vehicle’s electrical load is more than the alternator output, particularly with the
addition of aftermarket equipment.
Defects in the charging system, such as electrical shorts, a slipping alternator belt, a faulty
alternator, or a faulty voltage regulator.
Battery abuse, including failure to keep the battery cable terminals clean and tight or a
loose battery holddown clamp.
Mechanical problems in the electrical system, such as shorted or pinched wires. -
-
-
-
-
-
3) CHARGING SYSTEM
Alternators use a new type of regulator that incorpo-rates a diode trio. A Delta stator, a rectifier
bridge, and a rotor with slip rings and brushes are electrically similar to earlier alternators.
A
conventional pulley and fan are used.
There is no test hole.
4) CHARGING TIME REQUIRED
The time required to charge a battery will vary depending upon the following factors:
Size of Battery
- A Completely discharged large heavy-duty battery required more than twice the recharging
time as a completely discharged small passenger car battery.
Temperature
<00540047004700680047009300960095008e008c00990047009b00900094008c0047009e00900093009300470089008c00470095008c008c008b008c008b0047009b00960047008a008f00880099008e008c00470088009500a0004700890088009b009b00
8c009900a000470088009b004700540058005f00b6006a0047>(0°F) than at 27°C
(80°F).
When a fast charger is connected to a cold battery, the current accepted by the battery will
be very low at first. The battery will accept a higher current rate as the battery warms.
Charger Capacity
- A charger which can supply only 5 amperes will require a much longer charging period
than a charger that can supply 30 amperes or more.
State-of-Charge
- A completely discharged battery requires more than twice as much charge as a onehalf
charged battery. Because the electrolyte is nearly pure water and a poor conductor in a
completely discharged battery, the current accepted by the battery is very low at first. Later,
as the charging current causes the electrolyte acid content to
increase, the charging current will likewise increase. ▶

POWER STEERING SYSTEM
3. POWER STEERING PUMP
The vane type pump that is connected to engine by belt is used for the power steering system.
This pump generates and controls a proper hydraulic pressure and flows by using the flow
control valve and pressure relief valve.
The flow control valve regulates the excessive amount of discharging oil. When the steering
wheel is stationary or the oil circuit is blocked, the pressure relief valve returns the ove
r
pressurized oil to the oil reservoir.
4. OIL RESERVOIR
The oil reservoir sends the oil to the power steering pump and receives the oil from the power
steering gear.
The oil level in the reservoir depends on the steering wheel positions. therefore, measure the oil
level when the steering wheel is positioned at straight ahead direction (neutral).

WHEEL
1. OVERVIEW OF WHEEL & TIRE
1) Tire And wheel Balancing
There are two types of the tire and wheel balancing: static and dynamic.
Static balance is the equaldistribution of weight around the wheel. assemblies that are statically
unbalanced cause a bouncing action called wheel tramp. This condition may eventually cause
uneven tire wear.
Dynamic balance is the equal distributio of weight on eeach side of the centerline so that when
the assembly spins there is no tendency for it to move frim side to side . Assemblies that are
dynamically unbalanced may cause wheel shimmy.
General Balance Precautions ▶
Remove all deposits of foreign material from the inside of the wheel.
Remove stones frim the gread in order to avoid operator injury during spin balancing -
Inspect the tire for any damage. Balance the tire according to the equipment manufacturer’s
recommendations.
2) Structure of Tubeless Tube
The tire structure is different slightly
according to the types of the tire but a
various type of the tire has the common
structure as following;
Tread 1.
A part (that contacts) road surfaces directly
is fixed on the outsude of carcass and
breaker.
It is a strong rubber coat made of high anti-
abrasion rubber. Its running performance
depends on is surface profile.
A cord belt between tread and carcass
prevents damages of inner code due to oute
r
shock and vibration.Breaker 2.
