9S-8140 Pressurizing Pump
Put the 9S-8140 Pressurizing Pump onto the radiator.
Take the pressure reading on the gauge to 20 kPa (3 psi) more than the pressure on the filler cap.
Check the radiator for leakage on the outside.
Check all connection points for leakage, and check the hoses for leakage.The cooling system does not have leakage only if the following conditions exist:.
You do NOT see any outside leakage.
The reading remains steady after five minutes.The inside of the cooling system has leakage only if the following conditions exist:
The reading on the gauge goes down.
You do NOT observe any outside leakage.Make any repairs, as required.Test for the Water Temperature Gauge

Water Temperature Connection (1) Water temperature regulator housing. (2) Plug. (3) Plug.Check the accuracy of the water temperature indicator or water temperature sensor if you find either of the following conditions:
The engine runs at a temperature that is too hot, but a normal temperature is indicated. A loss of coolant is found.
The engine runs at a normal temperature, but a hot temperature is indicated. No loss of coolant is found.Coolant temperature can also be read on the display screens of the Electronic Service Tool (ECAP or ET).Remove one of the plugs (2) or (3) . Install one of the following thermometers:
The 4C-6500 Digital Thermometer
The 2F-7112 Thermometer A temperature indicator of known accuracy can also be used to make this check.
Personal injury can result from escaping fluid under pressure.If a pressure indication is shown on the indicator, push the release valve in order to relieve pressure before removing any hose from the radiator.

Water Temperature GaugeStart the engine. Run the engine until the temperature reaches the desired range according to the test thermometer. If necessary, place a cover over part of the radiator in order to cause a restriction of the coolant flow. The reading on the water temperature indicator should agree with the test thermometer within the tolerance range of the water temperature indicator.

Remove the regulator from the engine.
Heat water in a pan until the temperature is 98°C (208°F). Stir the water in the pan. This allows the temperature to radiate throughout the pan.
Hang the water temperature regulator in the pan of water. The water temperature regulator must be below the surface of the water. The water temperature regulator must be away from the sides and the bottom of the pan.
Keep the water at the correct temperature for ten minutes.
After ten minutes, remove the water temperature regulator. Immediately measure the distance for the opening of the water temperature regulator. Refer to the Specifications, "Water Temperature Regulator" for more information about the minimum distance for openings on the water temperature regulator.If the distance is less than the amount listed in the manual, replace the water temperature regulator.Water Pump
