REFILLING ENGINE COOLANT
1. Install reservoir tank, and radiator drain plug. CAUTION:
Be sure to clean radiator drain plug and install with new O-ring.
If water drain plugs on cylinder block are removed, close and tighten them. Refer to EM-253,
"ASSEMBLY" .
2. Make sure that each hose clamp has been firmly tightened.
3. Remove air relief plug on heater hose.
4. Fill thermostat housing and reservoir tank to specified level.
Refill engine coolant up to filler neck of thermostat housing.
Pour engine coolant through engine coolant filler neck slowly of less than 2 (2-1/8 US qt, 1-3/4
Imp qt) a minute to allow air in system to escape.
Use Genuine Nissan Long Life Antifreeze/Coolant or equivalent mixed with water (distilled or
demineralized). Refer to MA-12, "
RECOMMENDED FLUIDS AND LUBRICANTS" .
When engine coolant overflows air relief hole on heater hose,
install air relief plug.
5. Install radiator cap.
6. Warm up until opening thermostat. Standard for warming-up time is approximately 10 minutes at 3,000 rpm.
Make sure thermostat opening condition by touching radiator hose (lower) to see a flow of warm water.
CAUTION:
Watch water temperature gauge so as not to overheat engine.
7. Stop engine and cool down to less than approximately 50 °C (122 °F).
Cool down using a fan to reduce the time.
If necessary, refill engine coolant up to filler neck of thermostat housing.
8. Refill reservoir tank to “MAX” level line with engine coolant. Radiator drain plug:
: 1.19 N·m (0.12 kg-m, 11 in-lb)

Removal and InstallationNBS003KS
REMOVAL
1. Drain engine coolant from drain plugs on radiator and both side of cylinder block. Refer to CO-38, "Chang-
ing Engine Coolant" and EM-249, "DISASSEMBLY" .
CAUTION:
Perform this step when engine is cold.
Do not spill engine coolant on drive belts.
2. Remove engine cover with power tool. Refer to EM-173, "
ENGINE ROOM COVER" .
3. Remove air duct (inlet). Refer to EM-177, "
AIR CLEANER AND AIR DUCT" .
4. Disconnect water suction hose from water inlet.
5. Remove water inlet and thermostat. CAUTION:
Do not disassemble thermostat.
6. Remove intake manifolds (upper and lower). Refer to EM-179, "
INTAKE MANIFOLD" .
7. Disconnect radiator hose (upper) and water hoses from thermostat housing.
8. Disconnect heater hoses from water outlet and heater pipe.
9. Remove thermostat housing, water outlet pipe, water connector, water control valve, water outlet and heater pipe.
CAUTION:
Do not disassemble water control valve.
INSPECTION AFTER REMOVAL
Make sure that valves both in thermostat and water control valve are completely closing at normal temper-
ature.
Place a thread so that it is caught in the valves of the thermostat
and water control valve. Immerse fully in a container filled with
water. Heat while stirring. (The example in the figure shows ther-
mostat.)
The valve opening temperature is the temperature at which the
valve opens and falls from the thread.
Continue heating. Check the maximum valve lift.
NOTE:
The maximum valve lift standard temperature for water control
valve is the reference value.
After checking the maximum valve lift, lower the water tempera-
ture and check the valve closing temperature.
Standard values:
If the malfunctioning condition, when closing valve at normal temperature, or measured values are out of
the standard, replace thermostat and/or water control valve.
INSTALLATION
Note the following, and install in the reverse order of removal.
CAUTION:
Be careful not to spill engine coolant over engine room. Use rag to absorb engine coolant.

4. CHECK FUEL LEVEL SENSOR (MAIN) CIRCUIT
1. Check continuity between fuel level sensor unit and fuel pump (main) harness connector (A) B39 terminal 5 and unified meter
and A/C amp. harness connector (B) M56 terminal 36.
2. Check continuity between fuel level sensor unit and fuel pump (main) harness connector (A) B39 terminal 5 and ground.
OK or NG
OK >> GO TO 5.
NG >> Repair harness or connector.
5. CHECK FUEL LEVEL SENSOR
Check components. Refer to DI-24, "
FUEL LEVEL SENSOR UNIT" .
OK or NG
OK >> Check fuel level sensor unit installation, and check whether the float arm interferes or binds with any of the internal components in the fuel tank. Repair or replace malfunctioning part, if neces-
sary.
NG >> Replace fuel level sensor unit.
Fuel Gauge Pointer Fluctuates, Indicator Wrong Value or VariesNKS002ZU
1. CHECK FUEL GAUGE FLUCTUATION
Test drive vehicle to see if gauge fluctuates only during driving or at the instant of stopping.
Does the indication value vary only during driving or at the instant of stopping?
YES >> The pointer fluctuation may be caused by fuel level change in the fuel tank. Condition is normal.
NO >> Ask the customer about the situation when the symptom occurs in detail, and perform the trouble diagnosis.
Fuel Gauge Does Not Move to FULL PositionNKS002ZV
1. QUESTION 1
Does it take a long time for the pointer to move to FULL position?
YES >> GO TO 2.
NO >> GO TO 3.
2. QUESTION 2
Was the vehicle fueled with the ignition switch ON?
YES >> Be sure to fuel the vehicle with the ignition switch OFF. Otherwise, it will take a long time to move to FULL position because of the characteristic of the fuel gauge.
NO >> GO TO 3.
3. QUESTION 3
Is the vehicle parked on an incline?
YES >> Check the fuel level indication with vehicle on a level surface.
NO >> GO TO 4. 5 – 36 : Continuity should exist.
5 – Ground : Continuity should not exist.
