ENGINE COOLANT


Inspection


LEVEL CHECK
- Check if the reservoir tank engine coolant level is within the "MIN" to "MAX" when engine is cool.





- Adjust the engine coolant level if necessary.

LEAK CHECK
- To check for leakage, apply pressure to the cooling system with radiator cap tester (commercial service tool) and radiator cap tester adapter (commercial service tool) (A).






Testing pressure: 157 kPa (1.6 kg/cm2, 23 psi)


WARNING:
Never remove radiator cap when engine is hot. Serious burns could occur from high-pressure engine coolant escaping from thermostat housing.

CAUTION:





Higher testing pressure than specified may cause radiator damage.

NOTE:
In a case engine coolant decreases, replenish radiator with engine coolant.
- If anything is found, repair or replace damaged parts.
