3. INSPECT FOR COOLANT LEAK
  1. Remove the radiator cap.

    CAUTION:
    To avoid being burned, do not remove the radiator cap while the engine and radiator are still hot. Thermal expansion may cause hot engine coolant and steam to blow out from the radiator.
  1. Fill the radiator with coolant and attach a radiator cap tester.

  1. Warm up the engine.

  1. Using the radiator cap tester, increase the pressure inside the radiator to 118 kPa (1.2 kgf/cm2, 17 psi), and then check that the pressure does not drop.
    If the pressure drops, check the hose, radiator and water pump for leakage. If no external leakage is found, check the heater core, cylinder block and cylinder head.

  1. Install the radiator cap.
