5) Drain coolant.
6) Disconnect radiator inlet and outlet hoses from each pipe.
7) Disconnect A/T fluid hoses (1) (vehicle with A/T) and release
its clamps. Place some container under radiator to receive
A/T fluid which will flow out when hose is disconnected.
8) Remove fan shroud upper bolts and install board (1) or the
like. This prevents damage to radiator fins when removing
and installing radiator.
9) Remove radiator with cooling fan. Then remove water pump
pulley. Refer to “Radiator” and “Water Pump Belt and Cool-
ing Fan” in Section 6B.
10) Remove A/C compressor and/or P/S pump belt tension pul-
ley (1) (if equipped).
11) With hose connected, detach P/S pump from its bracket and
then remove P/S pump bracket (2) (if equipped) referring to
“Power Steering Pump” in Section 3B1. WARNING:
To help avoid danger of being burned, do not remove
drain plug (1) and radiator cap while engine and radiator
are still hot. Scalding fluid and steam can be blown out
under pressure if plug and cap are taken off too soon.
NOTE:
Suspend removed P/S pump at a place where no damage
will be caused during removal and installation of timing
chain cover.
