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.

ON-VEHICLE SERVICE
ALTERNATOR OUTPUT LINE VOLTAGE DROP TEST
Alternator
Terminal BVoltmeterAmmeter
Battery
+-
+-
This test determines whether the wiring from the
alternator “B” terminal to the battery (+) terminal
(including the fusible line) is in a good condition
or not.
(1) Always be sure to check the following before
the test.
DAlternator installation
DAlternator drive belt tension
(Refer to GROUP 11 - On-vehicle Service.)
DFusible link
DAbnormal noise from the alternator while
the engine is running
(2) Turn the ignition switch to the “LOCK” (OFF)
position.
(3) Disconnect the negative battery cable.
(4) Disconnect the alternator output wire from the
alternator “B” terminal and connect a DC test
ammeter with a range of 0 - 100 A in seriesbetween the “B” terminal and the disconnected
output wire. (Connect the (+) lead of the
ammeter to the “B” terminal, and then connect
the ( - ) lead of the ammeter to the disconnected
output wire.)
NOTE
An inductive-type ammeter which enables
measurements to be taken without
disconnecting the alternator output wire should
be recommended. Using this equipment will
lessen the possibility of a voltage drop caused
by a loose “B” terminal connection.
(5) Connect a digital-type voltmeter between the
alternator “B” terminal and the battery (+)
terminal. (Connect the (+) lead of the voltmeter
to the “B” terminal and the connect the ( - ) lead
of the voltmeter to the battery (+) cable.)
