INSPECTION

  1. CHECK ENGINE COOLANT LEVEL AT RADIATOR RESERVOIR The engine coolant level should be between the "LOW" and "FULL" lines, when the engine is cold. If low, check for leaks and add "Toyota Super Long Life Coolant" or similar high quality ethylene glycol based non-silicate, non-amine, non-nitrite, and non-borate coolant with long-life hybrid organic acid technology up to the "FULL" line. Do not use plain water alone.
  2. CHECK ENGINE COOLANT QUALITY Remove the radiator cap from the water outlet. CAUTION: To avoid the danger of being burned, do not remove the radiator cap while the engine and radiator are still hot, as fluid and steam can be blown out under pressure. There should not be any excessive deposits of rust or scale around the radiator cap or water outlet filler hole, and the coolant should be free from oil. If excessively dirty, clean the coolant passages and replace the coolant. Reinstall the radiator cap.

ON-VEHICLE INSPECTION

Note. Be sure to do checking when the engine coolant is charged.

INSPECT FINS FOR BLOCKAGE

If fins are clogged, wash them with water or a steam cleaner and dry with compressed air.

Scheme 15

Scheme 15: INSPECT FINS FOR BLOCKAGE

Note. If the distance between the steam cleaner and the core is too close, there is a possibility of damaging the fin, so keep the following injection distance. INJECTION PRESSURE AND DISTANCE SPECIFICATIONS Injection Pressure Injection Distance 2,942 to 4,903 kPa (30 to 80 kgf.cm 2 , 427 to 711 psi) 300 mm (11.811 in.) 4,903 to 7,845 kPa (50 to 80 kgf.cm 2 , 711 to 1,138 psi) 500 mm (19.685 in.) If the fins are bent, straighten them with a screwdriver or pliers. Never apply water directly onto the electronic components.

  1. REMOVE RADIATOR CAP CAUTION: To avoid the danger of being burned, do not remove the radiator cap while the engine and radiator are still hot, as fluid and steam can be blown out under pressure.
  2. INSPECT RADIATOR CAP NOTE: If the radiator cap has contaminations, always rinse it with water. Before using a radiator cap tester, wet the relief valve and pressure valve with engine coolant or water. When performing steps (a) and (b) below, keep the radiator cap tester at an angle of over 30° above the horizontal. Using a radiator cap tester, slowly pump the tester and check that air is coming from the vacuum valve. Pump speed: 1 push/ (3 seconds or more) NOTE: Push the pump at a constant speed. If air is not coming from the vacuum valve, replace the radiator cap. Pump the tester and measure the relief valve opening pressure. Pump speed: 1 push within 1 second NOTE: This pump speed is for the first pump only (in order to close the vacuum valve). After this, the pump speed can be reduced. Standard opening pressure: 93 to 123 kPa (0.95 to 1.25 kgf/cm 2 ,13.5 to 17.8 psi) Minimum opening pressure: 78 kPa (0.8 kgf/cm 2 ,11.4 psi) HINT: Use the tester's maximum reading as the opening pressure. If the opening pressure is less than minimum, replace the radiator cap.
  3. INSPECT COOLING SYSTEM FOR LEAKS Fill the radiator with coolant and attach a radiator cap tester. Warm up the engine. Pump it to 118 kPa (1.2 kgf/cm 2 ,17.1 psi), and check that the pressure does not drop. If the pressure drops, check the hoses, radiator or water pump for leaks. If no external leaks are found, check the heater core, cylinder block and head.

  1. A/T: INSTALL OIL COOLER PIPES TO LOWER TANK Install 2 new O-rings to the oil cooler. Install the 2 nuts. Torque: 12 N.m (122 kgf.cm, 9 ft.lbf) Install the LH cooler pipe in the direction indicated in (Scheme 29). Torque: 14.7 N.m (150 kgf.cm, 11 ft.lbf) Install the RH cooler pipe. Torque: 14.7 N.m (150 kgf.cm, 11 ft.lbf)
  2. INSPECT LOCK PLATE FOR DAMAGE HINT: If the sides of the lock plate groove are deformed, reassembly of the tank will be impossible. Therefore, first correct any deformation with pliers or similar object. Water leakage will result if the bottom of the lock plate groove is damaged or dented. Repair or replace if necessary. NOTE: The radiator can only be recaulked 2 times. After the 2nd time, the radiator core must be replaced.
  3. INSTALL NEW O-RINGS AND TANKS After checking that there are no foreign objects in the lock plate groove, install a new O-ring without twisting it. HINT: When cleaning the lock plate groove, lightly rub it with sand paper without scratching it. Install the tank without damaging the O-ring. Tap the lock plate with a soft-faced hammer so that there is no gap between the lock plate and the tank.
  4. ASSEMBLE SST SST 09230-01010, 09231-14010 Install the punch assembly to the overhaul handle, inserting it in the hole in part "A" (Scheme 33) While gripping the handle, adjust the stopper bolt so that dimension "B" is (Scheme 33) Dimension: 8.4 mm (0.331 in)
  5. CAULK LOCK PLATE Lightly press SST against the lock plate in the order (Scheme 34) After repeating this a few times, fully caulk the lock plate by gripping the handle until stopped by the stopper plate. SST 09230-01010 HINT: Do not tap the areas protruding around the pipes, brackets or tank ribs. The points (Scheme 36)and oil cooler near here (A/T) cannot be tapped with the SST. Use pliers or similar objects and be careful not to damage the core plates. Check the lock plate height (H) after completing the caulking. Plate height (H): 8.45 to 8.85 mm (0.3327 to 0.3484 in.) If not within the specified height, adjust the stopper bolt of the handle again and caulk again.
  6. INSTALL DRAIN PLUG Install a new O-ring to the drain plug. Install the drain plug.
  7. INSPECT FOR WATER LEAKS Tighten the drain plug. Plug the inlet and outlet pipes of the radiator with SST. SST 09230-01010 Using a radiator cap tester, apply pressure to the radiator. Test pressure: 177 kPa (1.8 kgf/cm 2, 26 psi) Submerge the radiator in water. Inspect for leaks. HINT: On radiators with resin tanks, there is a clearance between the tank and lock plate where a minute amount of air will remain, giving the appearance of an air leak when the radiator is submerged in water. Therefore, before doing the water leak test, first swish the radiator around in the water until all air bubbles disappear.
