Inspection |
1. | Wait for the engine to cool. Carefully remove the coolant reservoir tank cap and fill the radiator with engine coolant. Then, install it on the pressure tester. |
2. | Apply a pressure tester to the radiator and apply a pressure of 125.3 - 154.7 kPa (1.28 - 1.58 kgf/cm², 22.44 - 18.17 psi). |
3. | Inspect for engine coolant leaks and a drop in pressure. |
4. | Remove the tester and reinstall the radiator cap.
