• Fully immerse the heater thermostat (1) in a container (A) filled

with water. Continue heating the water while stirring.

• Continue heating the heater thermostat for 5 minutes or more after

bringing the water to a boil.

• Quickly take the heater thermostat out of the hot water, measure

the heater thermostat within 10 seconds.

• Place dial indicator (A) on the pellet (B) and measure the elonga-

tion from the initial state. 

• If out of the standard, replace heater thermostat.

INSPECTION AFTER INSTALLATION

• Check that the reservoir tank cap is tightened.
• Check for leaks of engine coolant using the adapter and the reservoir tank cap tester [SST: — (M.S. 554-07).

Refer to 

CO-30, "Inspection"

.

• Start and warm up the engine. Visually make sure that there is no leaks of engine coolant.

INSTALLATION

Note the following, and install in the reverse order of removal.

Water Control Valve

• Install water control valve with making rubber ring (1) groove fit to

water control valve flange (A) with the whole circumference.

• Install water control valve (2) with the arrow (A) facing up and the

frame center part (B) facing upwards.

INSPECTION AFTER REMOVAL

WARNING:

Use a protector to prevent a burn during the work.

Water Control Valve

• Place a thread (A) so that it is caught in the valves of water control

valve (1). Immerse fully in a container (B) filled with water. Heat
while stirring.

• The valve opening temperature is the temperature at which the

valve opens and falls from the thread.

• Continue heating. Check the continuous valve lifting toward maxi-

mum valve lift.
NOTE:
The maximum valve lift amount standard temperature for water
control valve is the reference value.

• After checking the maximum valve lift amount, lower the water

temperature and check the valve closing temperature. 

• If out of the standard, replace water control valve.

INSPECTION AFTER INSTALLATION

• Check that the reservoir tank cap is tightened.
• Check for leaks of engine coolant using the adapter and the reservoir tank cap tester [SST: — (M.S. 554-07).

Refer to 

CO-30, "Inspection"

.

• Start and warm up the engine. Visually make sure that there is no leaks of engine coolant.
