Radiator
REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION
1. Remove under cover.
2. Drain coolant from radiator drain plug.
3. Disconnect radiator upper and lower hoses.
4. Remove radiator lower shroud.
5. Disconnect reservoir tank hose.
6. Remove radiator.
7. After repairing or replacing radiator, install any part removed in
reverse order of removal.
Re®lling Engine Coolant
For details on re®lling engine coolant, refer to MA section (``REFILL-
ING ENGINE COOLANT'', ``Changing Engine Coolant'').

Cooling Fan (Crankshaft driven)
DISASSEMBLY AND INSTALLATION
+Do not release the drive belt tension by removing the fan/water
pump pulley.
+Fan coupling cannot be disassembled and should be replaced
as a unit. If front markj
Fis present, install fan so that side
markedj
Ffaces the front.
+Install the drive belt only after the fan and fan coupling to water
pump ¯ange bolts/nuts have been properly torqued.
+Proper alignment of these components is essential. Improper
alignment will cause them to wobble and may eventually cause
the fan to separate from the water pump causing extensive
damage.
INSPECTION
Check fan coupling for damage, oil leakage and bent bimetal.
Cooling Fan (Motor driven)
Cooling fan is controlled by ECM. For details, refer to ``Cooling
Fan'', ``TROUBLE DIAGNOSIS FOR DTC 28'' in EC section.

Radiator (Aluminum type)
Aluminum radiator can be disassembled by using special proce-
dures and special service tools.
DISASSEMBLY
1. Remove tank with Tool.
+Grip the crimped edge and bend it upwards so that Tool slips
off.
Do not bend excessively.

+In areas where Tool cannot be used, use a screwdriver to bend
the edge up.
Be careful not to damage tank.
2. Make sure the edge stands straight up.
3. Remove oil cooler from tank. (A/T model only)
ASSEMBLY
1. Install oil cooler.
Pay attention to direction of conical washer.
2. Clean contact portion of tank.
3. Install sealing rubber.
Push it in with ®ngers.
Be careful not to twist sealing rubber.

4. Caulk tank in speci®ed sequence with Tool.
+Use pliers in the locations where Tool cannot be used.
5. Make sure that the rim is completely crimped down.
Standard height ``H'':
10.0 - 11.0 mm (0.394 - 0.433 in)
6. Con®rm that there is no leakage.
Refer to Inspection.

INSPECTION
1. Apply pressure with Tool.
Speci®ed pressure value:
98 kPa (0.98 bar, 1.0 kg/cm
2, 14 psi)
WARNING:
To prevent the risk of the hose coming undone while under
pressure, securely fasten it down with a hose clamp.
Attach a hose to the oil cooler as well.
2. Check for leakage.
