Inspection |
1. |
Remove the radiator cap, apply engine coolant to the seal, and then install a pressure tester on it. |
2. |
Apply a pressure of 93.16 ~ 122.58 kPa (0.95 ~ 1.25 kg/cm?, 13.51 ~ 17.78 psi). |
3. |
Check the pressure for any changes. |
4. |
If the pressure drops, replace the cap. |
1. |
Wait for the engine to cool down, then carefully remove the
radiator cap and fill the radiator with engine coolant, then install the
