Engine Oil Cooler -- Installation |
| 1. INSTALL OIL COOLER ASSEMBLY |
Clean the contact surfaces of the oil filter bracket sub-assembly and oil cooler assembly.
Apply a light coat of engine oil to a new O-ring and install it to the oil cooler assembly.
Apply a light coat of engine oil to the threads of the oil cooler union bolt.
Align the protrusion of the oil filter bracket with the cutout of the oil cooler assembly.

Install the oil cooler assembly with the plate washer and oil cooler union bolt.
- Torque:
- 43 N*m{438 kgf*cm, 32 ft.*lbf}
Connect the No. 4 water by-pass hose and No. 5 water by-pass hose to the oil cooler assembly, and slide the 2 clamps to secure the hoses.
| 2. INSTALL OIL FILTER SUB-ASSEMBLY |
| 3. ADD ENGINE OIL |
| 4. INSPECT ENGINE OIL LEVEL |
Warm up the engine, stop the engine and wait 5 minutes.
Check that the oil level is between the dipstick low level mark and full level mark.
If the level is low, check for leakage and add oil up to the full level mark.- NOTICE:
- Do not fill engine oil above the full level mark.
| 5. ADD ENGINE COOLANT |
| 6. INSPECT FOR OIL LEAK |
Start the engine. Make sure that there are no oil leaks from the areas that were worked on.
| 7. INSPECT FOR COOLANT LEAK |
- CAUTION:
- To avoid being burned, do not remove the radiator cap sub-assembly while the engine and radiator assembly are still hot. Thermal expansion may cause hot engine coolant and steam to blow out from the radiator assembly.
Fill the radiator assembly with coolant and attach a radiator cap tester.
Warm up the engine.
Using the radiator cap tester, increase the pressure inside the radiator assembly to 123 kPa (1.3 kgf/cm2, 18 psi), and then check that the pressure does not drop.
If the pressure drops, check the hose, radiator assembly and engine water pump assembly for leakage. If no external leakage is found, check the heater core, cylinder block and cylinder head.
