Cooling System: Testing and Inspection

ENGINE COOLANT LEAKAGE INSPECTION
1. Remove the radiator cap.





2. Connect a radiator tester and the SST to the radiator reservoir filler neck.
3. Apply 123 kPa (1.25 kgf/cm2,17.8 psi) of pressure to the system.

Caution: Applying more than 123 kPa 11.25 kgf/cm2, 17.8 psi) of pressure can damage the hoses, fittings, and other components, and cause leakage.

4. Verify that the pressure is held.
^ If not, inspect the system for coolant leakage.
