CAUTION:
• When removing water pump, be careful not to get engine coolant on drive belt.
• Water pump cannot be disassembled and should be replaced as a unit.
REMOVAL
1. Drain engine coolant from the radiator. Refer to CO-11, "Changing Engine Coolant".
CAUTION:
Perform when the engine is cold.
2. Remove the engine cooling fan (crankshaft driven type). Refer to CO-18, "
Removal and Installation
(Crankshaft Driven Type)".
3. Remove the water pump pulley.
4. Remove the water pump. • Engine coolant will leak from the cylinder block, so have a receptacle ready below.
CAUTION:
Handle water pump vane so that it does not contact any other parts.
INSPECTION AFTER REMOVAL
• Visually check that there is no signi ficant dirt or rust on the water
pump body and vane.
• Make sure there is no looseness in the vane shaft, and that it turns smoothly when rotated by hand.
• Replace the water pump assembly, if necessary.
INSTALLATION
Installation is in the reverse order of removal.
• After installation bleed the air from the cooling system. Refer to CO-11, "
Changing Engine Coolant".

4. Using EVAP leak detector, locate the EVAP leak. For the leak
detector, refer to the instruction manual for more details.
Refer to EC-37, "Description"
.
OK or NG
OK >> GO TO 8.
NG >> Repair or replace.
7.CHECK FOR EVAP LEAK
Without CONSULT-III
1. Turn ignition switch OFF.
2. Apply 12 volts DC to EVAP canister vent control va lve. The valve will close. (Continue to apply 12 volts
until the end of test.)
3. Pressurize the EVAP line using pressure pump with 1.3 to 2.7 kPa (10 to 20 mmHg, 0.39 to 0.79 inHg),
then remove pump and EVAP service port adapter.
CAUTION:
 Never use compressed air or a high pressure pump.
 Do not exceed 4.12 kPa (0.042 kg/cm
2 , 0.6 psi) of pressure in the system.
4. Using EVAP leak detector, locate the EVAP leak. For the leak detector, refer to the instruction manual for more details. Refer
to EC-37, "Description"
.
OK or NG
OK >> GO TO 8.
NG >> Repair or replace.
8.CHECK EVAP CANISTER VENT CONTROL VALVE
Check the following.
 EVAP canister vent control valve is installed properly. Refer to EC-491, "Removal and Installation"
.
 EVAP canister vent control valve. Refer to EC-232, "Component Inspection"
.
OK or NG
OK >> GO TO 9.
NG >> Repair or replace EVAP cani ster vent control valve and O-ring.
9.CHECK IF EVAP CANISTER SATURATED WITH WATER
1. Remove EVAP canister with EVAP canister vent control valve and EVAP control system pressure sensor
attached.
