OIL COOLER

• When removing oil cooler only, pinching water hoses near oil cooler to prevent engine coolant from spill-

ing out.

• Remaining engine coolant in piping will come out. Use a tray to collect it.

CAUTION:

• Perform this step when the engine is cold.
• Never spill engine coolant on drive belt.

5.

Remove connector bolt, and remove oil cooler.

CAUTION:

Never spill engine oil to rubber parts such as drive belt.

6.

Remove water pipes if necessary.

INSTALLATION

Note the following, and install in the reverse order of removal.
• Check that no foreign objects are adhering to the installation surfaces of oil cooler and oil pan (upper).
• Align cutout (B) on oil cooler (2) with protrusion (A) on oil pan

(upper) side, and tighten connector bolt (1).

Inspection

INSPECTION AFTER REMOVAL

Oil Cooler

Check oil cooler for cracks. Check oil cooler for clogging by blowing through engine coolant inlet. If necessary,
replace oil cooler.

Relief Valve

Inspect relief valve for movement, cracks and breaks by pushing the ball. If replacement is necessary, remove
relief valve by prying it out with a suitable tool. Install a new relief valve in place by tapping it.

INSPECTION AFTER INSTALLATION

1.

Check the engine oil level and the engine coolant level and add engine oil and engine coolant. Refer to

LU-7, "Inspection"

 and 

CO-11, "Inspection"

.

2.

Start the engine, and check there is no leakage of engine oil or engine coolant.

3.

Stop the engine and wait for 10 minutes.

4.

Check the engine oil level and the engine coolant level again. Refer to 

LU-7, "Inspection"

 and 

CO-11,

"Inspection"

.

Oil Pump Clearance

• Measure the clearance with feeler gauge (C).
- Clearance between oil pump outer rotor and oil pump body. [Posi-

tion (B)]

- Tip clearance between oil pump inner rotor and oil pump outer

rotor. [Position (A)]

• Measure the clearance with feeler gauge and straightedge (A).
- Side clearance between oil pump inner rotor and oil pump body.

[Position (C)]

- Side clearance between oil pump outer rotor and oil pump body.

[Position (B)]

• Calculate the clearance between oil pump inner rotor and oil pump body as follows:

OIL PUMP BODY INNER DIAMETER

- Measure the inner diameter of oil pump body with inside microme-

ter. [Position (A)]

OIL PUMP INNER ROTOR OUTER DIAMETER

- Measure the outer diameter of protruded portion of oil pump inner

rotor (1) with micrometer. [Position (B)]

OIL PUMP INNER ROTOR TO OIL PUMP BODY CLEARANCE

- (Clearance) = (Oil pump body inner diameter) – (Oil pump inner rotor outer diameter)
