RESISTOR (FOR INJECTOR) CHECK
1. Disconnect the resistor connector.
2. Measure the resistance between each terminal.

Checking the Operation Sound
1. Check that the engine coolant temperature is 20_Cor
below.
NOTE
Disconnecting the engine coolant temperature sensor
connector and connecting the harness-side of the
connector to another engine coolant temperature sensor
that is at 20_C or below is also okay.
2. Check that the operation sound of the stepper motor
can be heard after the ignition is switched “ON” position.
(but without starting the engine.)
3. If the operation sound cannot be heard, check the stepper
motor’s activation circuit.
If the circuit is normal, it is probable that there is a
malfunction of the stepper motor or of the engine-ECU.

/HIGH-PRESSURE FUEL HOSE INSTALLATION
1. Apply a drop of new engine oil to the O-ring.
Caution
Be sure not to let engine oil enter the delivery pipe.
2. While turning the injector, high-pressure fuel hose and
fuel pressure regulator to the right and left, install the
delivery pipe, while being careful not to damage the O-ring.
After installing, check that the hose turns smoothly.
3. If it does not turn smoothly, the O-ring may be trapped,
remove the injector, high-pressure fuel hose or fuel
pressure regulator and then re-insert it into the delivery
pipe and check once again.
4. Tighten the high-pressure fuel hose and fuel pressure
regulator to the specified torque.

ENGINE COOLING -GeneralInformation/
Service Specifications/Lubricant/Sealant14-2
GENERAL INFORMATION
The cooling system is designed to keep every part
of the engine at appropriate temperature in
whatever condition the engine may be operated.
The cooling method is of the water-cooled, pressure
forced circulation type in which the water pump
pressurizes coolant and circulates it throughout the
engine. If the coolant temperature exceeds the
prescribed temperature, the thermostat opens to
circulate the coolant through the radiator as well
so that the heat absorbed by the coolant may be
radiated into the air.The water pump is of the centrifugal type and is
driven by the drive belt from the crankshaft.
The radiator is the corrugated fin, down flow type.
The cooling fan is controlled by the radiator fan
controller and engine-ECU depend on driving
conditions.
