Install a new gasket to the water inlet housing.

Install a new O-ring to the water outlet pipe.

Install the water inlet with the 4 bolts and nut.

Torque:

10 N*m{192 kgf*cm, 7 ft.*lbf}

NOTICE:

Be careful not to allow the O-ring to get caught between other parts.

Connect the 5 hoses.

Connect the 2 radiator hoses.

Tighten all the plugs and fill the radiator with TOYOTA Super Long Life Coolant (SLLC).

Torque:

12.7 N*m{130 kgf*cm, 9 ft.*lbf} for cylinder block drain cock plug

Add engine coolant.

Specified capacity:

9.1 liters (9.6 US qts, 8.0 lmp. qts)

HINT:

1. TOYOTA vehicles are filled with TOYOTA SLLC at the factory. In order to avoid damage to the engine cooling system and other technical problems, only use TOYOTA SLLC or similar high quality ethylene glycol based non-silicate, non-amine, non-nitrite, non-borate coolant with long-life hybrid organic acid technology (coolant with long-life hybrid organic acid technology consists of a combination of low phosphates and organic acids).
   

1. Please contact your TOYOTA dealer for further details.
   

Slowly pour coolant into the radiator reservoir until it reaches the FULL line.

Press the inlet and outlet radiator hoses several times by hand, and then check the level of the coolant.
If the coolant level is low, add coolant.

Install the radiator cap and reservoir cap.

Bleed air from the cooling system.

1. Warm up the engine until the thermostat opens. While the thermostat is open, circulate the coolant for several minutes.
   

   HINT:

   Adjust the air conditioner set temperature to MAX (HOT).

2. Maintain the engine speed at 2,000 to 2,500 rpm.
   

3. Press the inlet and outlet radiator hoses several times by hand to bleed air.
   

   NOTICE:

   When pressing the radiator hoses:

   1. Wear protective gloves.
      
   1. Be careful as the radiator hoses are hot.
      
   1. Keep your hands away from the radiator fan.
      

Stop the engine, and wait until the engine coolant cools down to ambient temperature.

CAUTION:

Do not remove the radiator cap while the engine and radiator are still hot. Pressurized, hot engine coolant and steam may be released and cause serious burns.

Check the coolant level in the radiator reservoir.
If the coolant level is low, add SLLC to the radiator reservoir FULL line.

Check for engine coolant leaks (Click here).

Temporarily install the pulley with the 4 bolts.

Using SST, hold the pulley and tighten the 4 bolts.

Install the cover with the 3 nuts.

Install the V-ribbed belt.

While turning the belt tensioner counterclockwise, remove the bar.

NOTICE:

1. Put the backside of the V-ribbed belt on the tensioner pulley and idler pulley.
   
2. Check that the V-ribbed belt is properly set to each pulley.
   

If it is difficult to install the V-ribbed belt, perform the following procedure.

1. Put the V-ribbed belt on everything except the tensioner pulley as shown in the illustration.
   

2. While releasing the belt tension by turning the belt tensioner counterclockwise, put the V-ribbed belt on the tensioner pulley.
   

   NOTICE:

   1. Put the backside of the V-ribbed belt on the tensioner pulley and idler pulley.
      
   2. Check that the V-ribbed belt is properly set to each pulley.
