Manual Description
THERMOSTAT AND WATER CONTROL VALVE 22, sERVICE DATA AND SPECIFICATIONS (SDS) 24, cHECKING RADIATOR SYSTEM FOR LEAKS 31, remove old liquid gasket adhering to the liquid gasket application surface mating surface.

Q Remove liquid gasket completely from the liquid gasket application surface, mounting bolts, bolt, wipe the liquid gasket application surface and the mating surface with white gasoline (lighting heating, use) to remove adhering moisture, grease foreign materials, attach liquid gasket tube to the tube presser (special service.

Use Genuine Liquid Gasket equivalent, q Within five minutes of liquid gasket application, install mating component, q If liquid gasket protrudes, wipe it off immediately, q Do not retighten mounting bolts or nuts after installation.

Q Wait minutes or more after installation before refilling, adapting radiator cap tester radiator cap, installing radiator upper lower tanks, removing radiator upper lower tanks.

Pressing the tube liquid gasket, thermostat and water control valve stuck closed, o-ring for damage, deterioration improper fitting, check if the reservoir tank engine coolant level within MIN”.

MAX” range when engine cool, adjust engine coolant level necessary, to check for leakage, apply pressure to cooling system with, a radiator cap tester (commercial service tool) radiator.

Cap tester adapter (special service tool), do not remove radiator cap when engine hot, could occur from high-pressure engine coolant escaping, higher test pressure than specified may cause radiator damage.

In a case that engine coolant decreases, replenish radiator with engine coolant, if anything is found, repair replace damaged parts, to avoid being scalded, do not change engine coolant when engine hot, wrap a thick cloth around radiator cap and carefully remove the cap.

Of a turn to release built-up pressure, be careful not to allow engine coolant contact drive belt, open radiator drain plug at the bottom radiator, then, when drain all of engine coolant in the system, open water drain plug on cylinder block.

Remove reservoir tank drain engine coolant, check drained engine coolant for contaminants such as rust, corrosion discoloration, install reservoir tank, radiator drain plug, be sure to clean radiator drain plug and install with new O-ring.

If water drain plug on cylinder block is removed, close and tighten it, fill radiator and reservoir tank specified level, q Pour engine coolant through engine coolant filler neck, slowly of less than 2 (1-3/4 lmp qt) a minute allow air.

Q Use Genuine Nissan Anti-freeze Coolant equivalent, mixed with water (distilled demineralized), (with reservoir tank MAX” level), reservoir tank capacity (at MAX” level).

Warm up engine to normal operating temperature with radiator cap installed, run engine at 3,000 rpm for 10 seconds and return idle speed, q Repeat two three times, watch water temperature gauge so as not overheat engine.

Q Cool down using a fan reduce time, q If necessary, refill radiator up to filler neck with engine coolant, rpm with heater temperature controller set at several position between COOL” WARM”.
