INSPECTION AFTER REMOVAL

Examine the air cleaner filter for stains, clogging, or damage.

1. Remove dirt and foreign objects (such as dead leaves) on air cleaner filter surface and inside cleaner case.
2. If clogging or damage is observed, replace the air cleaner filter. CAUTION: Do not clean the viscous paper type air cleaner filter by blowing as there is a risk of deterioration of its performance.

Refer to " INTRODUCTION OF PERIODIC MAINTENANCE ".

Scheme 7

1. Do not use a wire brush for cleaning the spark plugs. Replace as necessary.
2. If plug is covered with carbon, a spark plug cleaner may be used. Cleaner air pressure: less than 588 kPa (6 kg/cm 2 , 85 psi) Cleaning time: less than 20 seconds
3. Checking and adjusting plug gap is not required between change intervals. If the gap is out of specification, replace the spark plug. CAUTION: Do not drop or shock plug.

INSPECTION AFTER INSTALLATION

1. Check the engine oil level. Refer to " «ENGINE OIL: INSPECTION»(ref-616719-S25207167782014051900000) ".
2. Start the engine, and check that there is are no leaks of engine oil.
3. Stop the engine and wait for at least 5 minutes.
4. Check the engine oil level, and adjust the level (if necessary). Refer to " «ENGINE OIL: INSPECTION»(ref-616719-S25207167782014051900000) ".

Scheme 8

1. Check that the reservoir tank engine coolant level is within the "MIN" to "MAX" when the engine is cool.
2. Adjust the engine coolant level if necessary. CAUTION: Refill Genuine NISSAN Long Life Antifreeze/Coolant (blue) or equivalent in its quality mixed with water (distilled or demineralized). Refer to " «FLUIDS AND LUBRICANTS»(ref-616719-S07077924722014051900000) ".

Scheme 9

1. To check for leaks, apply pressure to the cooling system using suitable tools (A/B). Testing pressure: Refer to " «RADIATOR»(ref-616716-S36725234022014051900000) ". WARNING: Do not remove the radiator cap when the engine is hot. Serious burns could occur from high-pressure engine coolant escaping from the radiator. Wrap a thick cloth around the cap. Slowly push down and turn it a quarter turn to allow built-up pressure to escape. Carefully remove the cap by pushing it down and turning it all the way. CAUTION: Perform this step when the engine is cold. Do not spill engine coolant on drivebelt. Higher test pressure than specified may cause radiator damage. NOTE: If engine coolant decreases, replenish radiator with engine coolant. Refer to " «FLUIDS AND LUBRICANTS»(ref-616719-S07077924722014051900000) ". If anything is found, repair or replace damaged parts.

RADIATOR: Inspection

Check radiator for mud or clogging. If necessary, clean radiator as follows.

1. Spray water to the back side of the radiator core using a side to side motion from the top down.
2. Stop spraying when debris no longer flows from radiator core.
3. Blow air into the back side of radiator core using a side to side motion from the top down. Use compressed air lower than 490 kPa (5 kg/cm 2 , 71 psi) and keep distance more than 30 cm (11.8 in).
4. Continue to blow air until no water sprays out.
5. Check for engine coolant leaks. Repair as necessary.

FUEL LINES: Inspection

Inspect fuel lines, fuel filler cap, and fuel tank for improper attachment, leaks, cracks, damage, loose connections, chafing or deterioration.

Scheme 10

If necessary, repair or replace damaged parts.

EVAP VAPOR LINES: Inspection

Note. Do not start engine. Improper installation of EVAP service port adapter [commercial service tool: (J-41413-OBD)] to the EVAP service port may cause a leak.

Scheme 11

1. 1. EVAP LEAK CHECK With CONSULT Install EVAP service port adapter [commercial service tool: (J-41413-OBD)] and pressure pump to EVAP service port.
2. Turn ignition switch ON.
3. Select the "EVAP SYSTEM CLOSE" in "WORK SUPPORT" mode of "ENGINE" using CONSULT.
4. Touch "START". A bar graph (Pressure indicating display) will appear on the screen.
5. Apply positive pressure to the EVAP system until the pressure indicator reaches the middle of the bar graph.
6. Remove EVAP service port adapter [commercial service tool: (J-41413-OBD)] and hose with pressure pump.
7. Locate the leak using a leak detector [commercial service tool: (J-41416)]. Refer to " «EVAPORATIVE EMISSION SYSTEM: SYSTEM DESCRIPTION»(ref-616720-S34616727832014051900000) ".

Scheme 12

Without CONSULT

1. Install EVAP service port adapter [commercial service tool: (J-41413-OBD)] and pressure pump to EVAP service port.
2. Apply battery voltage between the terminals of EVAP canister vent control valve to make a closed EVAP system.
3. To locate the leak, deliver positive pressure to the EVAP system until pressure gauge points reach 1.38 to 2.76 kPa (0.014 to 0.028 kg/cm 2 , 0.2 to 0.4 psi).
4. Remove EVAP service port adapter [commercial service tool: (J-41413-OBD)] and hose with pressure pump.
