Outer gear to crescent clearance
V30.21 - 0.32 (0.0083 - 0.0126)
Housing to inner gear clearance
V40.05 - 0.09 (0.0020 - 0.0035)
Housing to outer gear clearance
V50.05 - 0.11 (0.0020 - 0.0043)
Inner gear to brazed portion of housing
clearance
V6=Aþ B0.106 - 0.152 (0.0042 - 0.0060)
If it exceeds the limit, replace gear set or entire oil pump
assembly.

Oil Cooler
REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION
Install oil cooler as shown in the ®gure.
INSPECTION
1. Check oil cooler element and bracket for cracks.
2. Check coolant inlet of oil cooler for clogging by blowing through
it. Replace it if necessary.
Oil Jet
INSPECTION
1. Push cut-off valve of oil jet bolt with a clean resin or brass rod
and make sure that cut-off valve moves smoothly with proper
repulsion.
2. Make sure that the oil jet passage is not clogged. Clean with a
wire if necessary.

When installing oil jet, align oil jet's boss with hole on cylin-
der block.

+Before removing water tube, drain coolant ®rst.
+Be careful not to deform tubes.
+After installation, run engine for a few minutes, and check
for oil leakage.

Cooling Circuit
System Check
WARNING:
Never remove the radiator cap when the engine is hot; serious
burns could be caused by high pressure ¯uid escaping from
the radiator.
Wrap a thick cloth around cap and carefully loosen it a quar-
ter turn to release built-up pressure. Then remove the cap
completely.
CHECKING COOLING SYSTEM HOSES
Check hoses for proper attachment, leaks, cracks, damage, loose
connections, cha®ng and deterioration.
CHECKING RADIATOR CAP
Apply pressure to radiator cap by means of a cap tester to see if it
is satisfactory.
Radiator cap relief pressure:
78-98kPa
(0.78 - 0.98 bar, 0.8 - 1.0 kg/cm
2, 11 - 14 psi)
SLC226A

ENGINE COOLING SYSTEM
LC-9

Pull the negative pressure valve to open it. Check that it closes
completely when released.
CHECKING COOLING SYSTEM FOR LEAKS
Apply pressure to the cooling system by means of a tester to check
for leakage.
Testing pressure:
98 kPa (0.98 bar, 1.0 kg/cm
2, 14 psi)
CAUTION:
Use of pressure higher than the speci®ed value may cause
damage to radiator.
Water Pump
CAUTION:
+When removing water pump assembly, be careful not to
get coolant on drive belts.
+Water pump cannot be disassembled and should be
replaced as a unit.
+After installing water pump, connect hose and clamp
securely, then check for leaks using radiator cap tester.
REMOVAL
1. Drain coolant from radiator and cylinder block.
Cylinder block drain plug (Use proper sealant):
:34-44Nzm (3.5 - 4.5 kg-m, 25 - 33 ft-lb)
Refer to MA section (``Changing Engine Coolant'', ``ENGINE
MAINTENANCE'').
2. Remove radiator shroud.
3. Remove drive belts. Refer to MA section (``Checking Drive
Belts'').
4. Remove fan coupling with fan.
5. Remove water pump.

INSPECTION
1. Check for rusted or corroded body assembly and vane.
2. Check for excessive end play and rough operation.
INSTALLATION
+Remove liquid gasket from mating surface of pump housing
using a scraper.
Be sure liquid gasket in grooves is also removed.
+Remove liquid gasket from mating surface of cylinder block.
+Clean all traces of liquid gasket using white gasoline.
+Cut off tip of nozzle of liquid gasket tube at point shown in ®g-
ure.
+Use Genuine Liquid Gasket or equivalent.

+Apply a continuous bead of liquid gasket to mating surface of
pump housing as shown.
a. Be sure diameter of liquid gasket is within 2.0 to 3.0 mm
(0.079 to 0.118 in) dia. range.
b. Attach pump housing to cylinder block within ®ve minutes
of applying liquid gasket.
c. After installing pump housing, wait at least 30 minutes
before starting engine.
Thermostat
INSPECTION
1. Check valve seating condition at ordinary temperatures. It
should seat tightly.
2. Check valve opening temperature and maximum valve lift.
Valve opening temperature CÉ (ÉF) 82.0 (180)
Maximum valve lift mm/ÉC (in/ÉF) 10/90 (0.39/194)
3. Then check if valve closes at 5ÉC (9ÉF) below valve opening
temperature.
INSTALLATION
+Remove liquid gasket from mating surface of thermostat using
a scraper.
+Similarly, remove liquid gasket from mating surface of cylinder
block.
+Clean all traces of liquid gasket using white gasoline.
