Engine Coolant Leakage Inspection
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2004 Mazda MPV. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
- Inspect the coolant level.
- Remove the cooling system cap.
- Connect a radiator cap tester and the SST to the reservoir filler port.
- Apply specified pressure to the radiator.
Pressure
123 kPa {1.25 kgf/cm 2 , 17.8 psi}
CAUTION:- Applying more than 123 kPa {1.25 kgf/cm 2 , 17.8 psi} can damage the hoses, fittings, and other components, and cause leaks.
- Verify that the pressure is held.
- If not, inspect the system for coolant leakage.
