2006 NISSAN PATROL cooling system

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.
