Thermostat Valve Opening Temperature
1. Suspend the thermostat in the water by a string with its end
inserted between the valve and seat.
2. Heating the water gradually, read the temperature when the
valve opens and leaves the string.
3. Continue heating and read the temperature when the valve
opens approx. 6 mm (0.236 in.).
4. If the measurement is not within the factory specifications,
replace the thermostat.

Radiator Cap Air Leakage
CAUTION
• When removing the radiator cap, wait at least ten minutes
after the engine has stopped and cooled down. Otherwise,
hot water way gush out, scalding nearby people.
1. Set a radiator tester (Code No.: 07909-31551) on the radiator
cap.
2. Apply the specified pressure (88 kPa, 0.9 kgf/cm
2
, 13 psi), and
measure the time for the pressure to fall to 59 kPa (0.6 kgf/cm
2
,
9 psi).
3. If the measurement is less than the factory specification, replace
the radiator cap.

Radiator Water Leakage
1. Pour a specified amount of water into the radiator.
2. Set a radiator tester (Code No. 07909-31551) with an adapter
(BANZAI Code No.RCT-2A-30S) and raise the water pressure to
the specified pressure.
3. Check the radiator for water leaks.
4. For water leak from the pinhole, repair with the radiator cement.
When water leak is excessive, replace the radiator.
