- Tools Required
- J24460-01 Cooling System Tester

Caution: To avoid being burned, do not remove the radiator cap or surge tank cap while the engine Is hot. The cooling system will release scalding fluid and steam under pressure if radiator cap or surge tank cap Is removed while the engine and radiator are still hot.

1. Remove the radiator filler cap.





2. Install J24460-01 to the radiator.

Notice: Do not use pressure greater than 138 kPa (20 psi) to test the radiator. Damage to the radiator will result if a higher pressure is used.

3. Apply approximately 103 kPa (15 psi) of pressure to the cooling system.
4. The needle on the tester gauge should remain steady for several minutes, otherwise there is a leak.





5. Examine all cooling system connections and components, including the radiator and the heater, for leaking coolant.
6. Repair any hose or hose connections as required.
7. If the radiator leaks during the pressure test, mark the leak area.
