4- General Information/ ENGINE COOLING - Service Specifications/Lubricant/Sealant GENERAL INFORMATION The cooling system is designed to keep every part of the engine at appropriate temperature in whatever condition the engine may be operated. The cooling method is of the water-cooled, pressure forced circulation type in which the water pump pressurizes coolant and circulates it throughout the engine. If the coolant temperature exceeds the prescribed temperature, the thermostat opens to circulate the coolant through the radiator as well so that the heat absorbed by the coolant may be radiated into the air. Items The water pump is of the centrifugal type and is driven by the drive belt from the crankshaft. The radiator is the corrugated fin, down flow type.

ENGINE COOLING - On-vehicle Service 4- Cap adapter Adapter ON-VEHICLE SERVICE ENGINE COOLANT LEAK CHECKING. Confirm that the coolant level is up to the filler neck. Install a radiator cap tester and apply 60 kpa pressure, and then check for leakage from the radiator hose or connections. Caution () Be sure to completely clean away any moisture from the places checked. () When the tester is taken out, be careful not to spill any coolant from it. () Be careful, when installing and removing the tester and when testing, not to deform the filler neck of the radiator.. If there is leakage, repair or replace the appropriate part. Cap adapter RADIATOR CAP VALVE OPENING PRESSURE CHECK. Use a cap adapter to attach the cap to the tester.. Increase the pressure until the indicator of the gauge stops moving. Limit: 64 kpa Standard value: 74-0 kpa. Replace the radiator cap if the reading does not remain at or above the limit. NOTE Be sure that the cap is clean before testing, since rust or other foreign material on the cap seal will cause an improper indication. ENGINE COOLANT REPLACEMENT. Drain the engine coolant by removing the drain plug and then the radiator cap.
4-4 <6G7> Left bank ENGINE COOLING - On-vehicle Service Right bank. Remove the cylinder block drain plug from the cylinder block to drain the engine coolant.. Remove the reserve tank to drain the engine coolant. 4. When the engine coolant has drained, pour in water from the radiator cap to clean the engine coolant line. <4D5> <4M4> Oil filter 9 ± 5N m 5. Coat the thread of the cylinder block drain plug with the specified sealant and tighten to the specified torque. Specified sealant: M Nut Locking Part No. 47 or equivalent 6. Securely tighten the radiator drain plug. 7. Install the reserve tank. 8. Remove the air bleed bolt and replace the seal washer. 9. Fill the radiator until the engine coolant flows from the air bleed bolt section, and then close the air bleed bolt. 0. Slowly pour the engine coolant into the mouth of the radiator until the radiator is full, and pour also into the reserve tank up to the FULL line. Recommended anti-freeze: MITSUBISHI GENUINE COOLANT or equivalent Quantity: <Vehicles without rear heater> 9.0 L <Vehicles with rear heater> 0.5 L
ENGINE COOLING - On-vehicle Service 4-5 Caution Do not use alcohol or methanol anti-freeze or any engine coolants mixed with alcohol or methanol anti-freeze. The use of an improper anti-freeze can cause the corrosion of the aluminium components. NOTE For Norway, the non-amine type of anti-freeze should be used.. Install the radiator cap securely.. Start the engine and warm the engine until the thermostat opens. (Touch the radiator hose with your hand to check that warm water is flowing.). After the thermostat opens, race the engine several times, and then stop the engine. 4. Cool down the engine, and then pour engine coolant into the reserve tank until the level reaches the FULL line. If the level is low, repeat the operation from step. CONCENTRATION MEASUREMENT Measure the temperature and specific gravity of the engine coolant to check the antifreeze concentration. Standard value: 0-60 % (allowable concentration range) RECOMMENDED ANTI-FREEZE Antifreeze MITSUBISHI GENUINE COOLANT or equivalent Allowable concentration 0-60 % Caution If the concentration of the anti-freeze is below 0 %, the anti-corrosion property will be adversely affected. In addition, if the concentration is above 60 %, both the anti-freezing and engine cooling properties will decrease, affecting the engine adversely. For these reasons, be sure to maintain the concentration level within the specified range.

If fluid quantity decreases due to leakage, fan speed will decrease and engine overheating might result. D When a fan attached to an engine is turned by hand, it should give a sense of some resistance. If fan turns lightly, it is faulty. D Check bimetal strip for damage.
