Mixing ratio
Check the specific gravity of engine coolant in the
cooling system temperature ranges from 0
°
C to 50
°
C
using a suction type hydrometer, then determine the
density of the engine coolant by referring to the table.
NOTE:
1. Even in the areas where the atmospheric
temperature is higher than 0
°
C, be sure not to use
antifreeze solution at a mixing ratio lower than 20% so
that the inside of the engine may not be corroded.
2. If antifreeze solution is used at a mixing ratio higher
than 60%, the specific heat of the coolant falls and the
engine may be overheated. Moreover, antifreeze
performance drop and the coolant may be frozen.
The density of the solution must be adjusted as
occasion calls.
Antifreeze solution lower than 20% may not have
sufficient anticorrosive performance, and therefore,
please never fail to adjust as occasion demands within
the range of 20% to 60%.

ENGINE COOLING
Draining and Refilling Cooling
System
Before draining the cooling system, inspect the system
and perform any necessary service to ensure that it is
clean, does not leak and is in proper working order. The
engine coolant (EC) level should be between the “MIN”
and “MAX” lines of reserve tank when the engine is cold.
If low, check for leakage and add EC up to the “MAX” line.
There should not be any excessive deposit of rust or
scales around the radiator cap or radiator filler hole, and
the EC should also be free from oil.
Replace the EC if excessively dirty.
1. Completely drain the cooling system by opening the
drain plug (2) at the bottom of the radiator.

2. Remove the radiator cap.
WARNING: TO AVOID THE DANGER OF BEING
BURNED, DO NOT REMOVE THE CAP WHILE THE
ENGINE AND RADIATOR ARE STILL HOT.
SCALDING FLUID AND STEAM CAN BE BLOWN OUT
UNDER PRESSURE.
3. Disconnect all hoses from the EC reserve tank.
Scrub and clean the inside of the reserve tank with
soap and water. Flush it well with clean water, then
drain it. Install the reserve tank and hoses.
4. Refill the cooling system with the EC using a solution
that is at least 50 percent antifreeze but no more than
70 percent antifreeze.
5. Fill the radiator to the base of the filler neck.
Fill the EC reserve tank to “MAX” line when the engine
is cold.
6. Block the drive wheels and firmly apply the parking
brake. Shift an automatic transmission to “P” (Park)
or a manual transmission to neutral.
7. Remove the radiator cap. Start the engine and warm
it up at 2,500
∼
3,000 rpm for about 30 minutes.
8. When the air comes out from the radiator filler neck
and the EC level has gone down, replenish with the
EC. Repeat this procedure until the EC level does not
go down. Then stop the engine and install the radiator
cap. Let the engine cool down.
9. After the engine has cooled, replenish with EC up to
the “MAX” line of the reserve tank.
10. Start the engine. With the engine running at 3,000
rpm, make sure there is no running water sound from
the heater core (behind the center console).
11. If the running water sound is heard, repeat steps 8 to
10.

Removal
1. Disconnect battery ground cable.
2. Drain coolant.
3. Radiator hose (on inlet pipe side).
4. Remove timing belt. Refer to “Timing Belt” in this
manual.
5. Remove Idle pulley.
6. Remove water pump assembly.
7. Remove gasket.
Inspection
Make necessary repair and parts replacement if extreme
wear or damage is found during inspection. Should any of
the following problems occur, the entire water pump
assembly must be replaced:
D
Crack in the water pump body
D
EC leakage from the seal unit
D
Play or abnormal noise in the bearing
D
Cracks or corrosion in the impeller.
Installation
1. Install gasket, clean the mating surface of gasket
before installation.
2. Install water pump assembly and tighten bolts to the
specified torque.
Torque: 25 N·m (18 lb ft)
D
Tightening order
The tightening order are in the illustrate.
NOTE: To prevent the oil leakage, apply the LOCTITE
262 or an equivalent, to the arrow marked fixing bolt
thread.
