19) Temporarily install the tie-rod to rack end, and
then operate the rack from lock to lock for two or
three times to make it fit in. Remove any grease
blocking the air vent hole.
CAUTION:
Operating the rack from lock to lock without in-
stalling tierods may damage the oil seal. Al-
ways install the LEFT AND RIGHT tierods.

3. Engine Coolant
A: REPLACEMENT
1. DRAINING OF ENGINE COOLANT
1) Lift-up the vehicle.
2) Remove the under cover.
3) Remove the drain plug to drain engine coolant
into container.
NOTE:
Remove the radiator cap so that engine coolant will
drain faster.
4) Install the drain plug.
2. FILLING OF ENGINE COOLANT
1) Pour cooling system conditioner through the fill-
er neck.
Cooling system protective agent:
COOLING SYSTEM CONDITIONER (Part No.
SOA345001)
2) Pour engine coolant into the radiator up to the
filler neck position.
Coolant level:
Refer to “SPECIFICATION” for the engine
coolant capacity. SPECIFICATION, General Description.>
NOTE:
The SUBARU Genuine Coolant containing anti-
freeze and anti-rust agents is especially made for
SUBARU engine, which has an aluminum crank-
case. Always use SUBARU Genuine Coolant,
since other coolant may cause corrosion.
3) Open the air bleeding valve on the heater hose
side.
4) If the engine coolant level drops, add engine
coolant into radiator up to the filler neck position.
5) When engine coolant has come out from the air
bleeding valve on the heater hose side, close the
valve.
6) Open the air bleeding valve on the radiator side.
7) If the engine coolant level drops, add engine
coolant into radiator up to the filler neck position.
8) When engine coolant has come out from the air
bleeding valve on the radiator side, close the valve.
9) Fill engine coolant into the reservoir tank up to
“FULL” level.
10) Close the radiator cap and start the engine.
Race 5 to 6 times at less than 3,000 rpm, then stop
the engine. (Complete this operation within 40 sec-
onds.)

3) Connect the radiator hose to thermostat cover.
4) Install the under cover.
5) Lower the vehicle.
6) Fill engine coolant. FILLING OF ENGINE COOLANT, REPLACE-
MENT, Engine Coolant.>
C: INSPECTION
Replace the thermostat if the valve does not close
completely at an ambient temperature or if the fol-
lowing test shows unsatisfactory results.
•Inspection method
Immerse the thermostat and a thermometer in wa-
ter. Raise water temperature gradually, and mea-
sure the temperature and valve lift when the valve
begins to open and when the valve is fully opened.
During the test, agitate the water for even temper-
ature distribution. The measured value should
meet the specification.
Starting temperature to open:
80 — 84°C (176 — 183°F)
Fully opens:
95°C (203°F)
NOTE:
•Leave the thermostat in the boiling water for
more than five minutes before measuring the
valve lift.
•Hold the thermostat with a wire or the like to
avoid contacting with container bottom.
Valve lift:
9.0 mm (0.354 in) or more
