Inspect For Engine Coolant Leakage
WARNING: This page is about a different variant/trim than selected.
WARNING:
- A hot engine can cause severe burns. Turn off the engine and wait until it is cool before performing the servicing.
- If the engine cooling system cap is removed when the engine is hot, steam and boiling water may be ejected, causing severe burns or severe injury. Perform the removal of the engine cooling system cap when the engine is cool.
- When removing the engine cooling system cap, cover the engine cooling system cap with a clean cloth and remove it slowly.
NOTE:
- Perform the procedure with the engine cooling system cap removed.
- Install the radiator cap tester to the filling port.
- Apply pressure using the radiator cap tester.
Coolant leakage inspection pressure
122.6 kPa {1.250 kgf/cm2, 17.78 psi} [1 min]
- When pressurizing the radiator, verify that the pressure is maintained.
- If the pressure decreases, repair or replace the location where water is leaking because water leakage can be considered.
