Coolant: Testing and Inspection

Inspection
LEVEL CHECK





^ Check if the reservoir tank engine coolant level is within the "MIN" to "MAX" when the engine is cool.
^ Adjust the engine coolant level as necessary.

LEAK CHECK





To check for leaks, apply pressure to the cooling system with the radiator cap tester (commercial service tool) and radiator cap tester adapter (SST).
Testing pressure: 157 kPa (1.6 kgf-cm2, 23 psi)

WARNING: Do not remove radiator cap when engine is hot. Serious burns could occur from high-pressure engine coolant escaping from radiator.

CAUTION: Higher test pressure than specified may cause radiator damage.

NOTE: In a case that engine coolant decreases, replenish radiator with engine coolant.

^ If anything is found, repair or replace damaged parts.
