6. Install air duct assembly and air cleaner cases (upper and lower) assembly. Refer to EM-26, "Exploded
View".
7. Install radiator cap.
8. Warm up engine until opening thermostat. Standard for warming-up time is approximately 10 minutes at
3,000 rpm.
 Check thermostat opening condition by touching radiator hose (lower) to see a flow of warm water.
CAUTION:
Watch water temperature gauge so as not to overheat engine.
9. Stop the engine and cool down to less than approximately 50°C (122°F).
 Cool down using fan to reduce the time.
 If necessary, refill radiator up to filler neck with engine coolant.
CAUTION:
Never adhere the engine coolant to electronic equipments. (alternator etc.)
10. Refill reservoir tank to “MAX” level line with engine coolant.
11. Repeat steps 7 through 10 two or more times with radiator cap installed until engine coolant level no
longer drops.
12. Check cooling system for leakage with engine running.
13. Warm up the engine, and check for sound of engine coolant flow while running engine from idle up to
3,000 rpm with heater temperature controller set at several position between “COOL” and “WARM”.
 Sound may be noticeable at heater unit.
14. Repeat step 13 three times.
15. If sound is heard, bleed air from cooling system by repeating step 5, and steps from 7 to 14 until engine
coolant level no longer drops.

1. Install reservoir tank if removed, and radiator drain plug.
CAUTION:
Be sure to clean drain plug and install with new O-ring.
If water drain plugs on cylinder block are removed, close and tighten them. Refer to EM-110, "
Dis-
assembly and Assembly".
2. Remove air duct assembly and air cleaner cases (upper and lower) assembly. Refer to EM-26, "
Exploded

3. Disconnect heater hose (1) at the position ( ) in the figure.
4. Fill radiator and reservoir tank with water and reinstall radiator cap.
CAUTION:
Never adhere the water to electronic equipments. (alternator etc.)
When water overflows disconnected heater hose, connect heater hose, and continue filling the
water.
5. Run the engine and warm it up to normal operating temperature.
6. Rev the engine two or three times under no-load.
7. Stop the engine and wait until it cools down.
8. Drain water from the system. Refer to CO-8, "
Draining". Tightening torque : Refer to CO-13, "

INSPECTION AFTER REMOVAL
1. Check valve seating condition at ordinary room temperatures. It should seat tightly.
2. Check valve operation.
 If the malfunctioning condition, when valve seating at ordinary
room temperature, or measured values are out of the standard,
replace water inlet and thermostat assembly.
INSPECTION AFTER INSTALLATION
 Check for leakage of engine coolant using the radiator cap tester adapter (commercial service tool) and the
radiator cap tester (commercial service tool). Refer to CO-8, "

cates less than 0.9 V.
- Without CONSULT-III: Drive vehicle for 10 minutes.
Will CONSULT-III be used?
YES >> GO TO 2.
NO >> GO TO 3.
