7. COOLING SYSTEM
Coolant reservoir
Water pump assembly
The water pump is driven by the engine drive belt and supplies
the coolant to each area of the engine.
Thermostat assembly
When the engine coolant
reaches 90˚C, the
thermostat starts to open (fully
open at 100˚C) and lets the
coolant flow to the radiator to
maintain the engine
temperature.

01-230000-00
Coolant outlet port
Coolant temperature sensor
Measures the coolant temperature
and sends the result to the engine
ECU.
Radiator assembly
Releases heat through fins and cools down the
hot coolant as the coolant passes through the
tube of the radiator core.FAN
Circulates the fresh air forcibly to
exchange heat with the radiator core fin.

1. OVERVIEW
The ignition system is to supply high voltage generated from the ignition coil to the spark plug. The
G20DF engine is equipped with the independent type direct ignition system that the ignition coil is
installed in each cylinder.
The basic ignition timing in each cylinder is determined by the signals from camshaft position sensor and
crankshaft position sensor.
This ignition system controls the electronic ignition timing received from the engine ECU. To control the
ignition timing precisely, the ECU use the information below:
Engine load
Coolant temperature
Intake air temperature
Engine rpm
Camshaft position sensor (CPS)
Crankshaft position sensor (CKS) -
-
-
-
-
-
If the signal from the camshaft position sensor is not delivered to the engine ECU, the ignition coil and
fuel system cannot be operated.

2) Leak Test
Release the pressure in the system by
loosening the pressure cap of the coolant
reservoir slightly. Then, remove the pressure
cap completely. A.
Never open the cap until the coolant
temperature becomes under 90℃ to
prevent any burn.
Add the coolant so that the coolant level is
between MAX and MIN mark on the coolant
auxiliary tank.
Connect the tester to the tank filler and apply
pressure (1.4 bar).
Check all the coolant hoses, pipes and
connections for leaks when the pressure of
the tester drops, and replace or tighten, if
necessary. B.

D.
3) Thermostat
Immerse the thermostat into the water. Heat the
water and check the valve opening temperature.
