8. By referring to the section on coolant, select an
appropriate concentration for safe operating
temperature within the range of 30 to 60%. Use
special tool LLC changer (MB991871) to refill the
coolant. A convenient mixture is a 50% water and
50% antifreeze solution (freezing point:
−31°C).
Recommended antifreeze: DIAQUEEN SUPER LONG LIFE COOLANT or equivalent
Quantity:
5.0 L <4G1>
7.0 L <4G6>
NOTE: For how to use special tool MB991871,
refer to its manufacturer’s instructions.
9. Reinstall the radiator cap.
10.Start the engine and let it warm up until the thermostat opens.
11.After repeatedly revving the engine up to 3,000 r/min several times, then stop the engine.
12.Remove the radiator cap after the engine has become cold, and pour in coolant up to the brim.
Reinstall the cap.
CAUTION
Do not overfill the radiator condenser tank.
13.Add coolant to the radiator condenser tank between the "F" and "L" mark if necessary.
CONCENTRATION MEASUREMENT
M1141001100352
Measure the temperature and specific gravity of the
engine coolant to check the antifreeze concentration.
Standard value: 30 − 60% (allowable concentra-
tion range)
Recommended antifreeze: DIAQUEEN SUPER
LONG LIFE COOLANT or equivalent
CAUTION
If the concentration of the anti-freeze is below
30%, the anti-corrosion property will be
adversely affected. In addition, if the concentra
-
tion is above 60%, both the anti-freezing and
engine cooling properties will decrease, affecting
the engine adversely. For these reasons, be sure
to maintain the concentration level within the
specified range.

IGNITION SYSTEM
ENGINE ELECTRICAL16-30
IGNITION SYSTEM
GENERAL INFORMATIONM1163000100294
This system is equipped with two ignition coils (A and
B) with built-in power transistors for the No. 1 and
No. 4 cylinders and the No. 2 and No. 3 cylinders
respectively.
Interruption of the primary current flowing in the pri-
mary side of ignition coil A generates a high voltage
in the secondary side of ignition coil A. The high volt
-
age thus generated is applied to the spark plugs of
No. 1 and No. 4 cylinders to generate sparks. At the
time that the sparks are generated at both spark
plugs, if one cylinder is at the compression stroke,
the other cylinder is at the exhaust stroke, so that
ignition of the compressed air/fuel mixture occurs
only for the cylinder which is at the compression
stroke.
In the same way, when the primary current flowing in
ignition coil B is interrupted, the high voltage thus
generated is applied to the spark plugs of No. 2 and
No. 3 cylinders.
The engine-ECU or engine-A/T-ECU
turns the two power transistors inside the ignition
coils alternately on and off. This causes the primary
currents in the ignition coils to be alternately inter
-
rupted and allowed to flow to fire the cylinders in the
order 1-3-4-2.
The engine-ECU or engine-A/T-ECU
determines which ignition coil should be controlled
by means of the signals from the camshaft position
sensor which is incorporated in the camshaft and
from the crank angle sensor which is incorporated in
the crankshaft. It also detects the crankshaft position
in order to provide ignition at the most appropriate
timing in response to the engine operation condi
-
tions. It also detects the crankshaft position in order
to provide ignition at the most appropriate timing in
response to the engine operation conditions.
When the engine is cold or operated at high alti-
tudes, the ignition timing is slightly advanced to pro-
vide optimum performance.
When the automatic transmission shifts gears, the
ignition timing is also retarded in order to reduce out
-
put torque, thereby alleviating shifting shocks.
