8. Are the air conditioning fans operating correctly?
See Electrical Trouble Shooting Manual.
Before conducting any cooling system diagnosis: See
NO - Rectify.
Description and operation, Engine Cooling
YES - Continue.
1.
2.
3.
4.
5.
Is coolant level correct?
NO - Allow engine to cool, top up level to
expansion tank seam.
9. Is temperature sender and gauge giving
accurate readings?
NO - Sustitute parts and compare readings.
YES - Continue.
YES - Continue.
Is drive belt tension correct?
NO - See ENGINE, Repair, Compressor
Drive Belt
10. Carry out cylinder pressure test to determine if
pressure is leaking into cooling system causing
over pressurising and loss of coolant.
YES - Continue.
If problem is not diagnosed, check the coolant system
for engine oil contamination and engine lubrication
system for coolant contamination.
Is coolant in radiator frozen?
YES - Slowly thaw and drain system. See
Adjustment, Coolant
NO -
Continue.
If only the coolant system is contaminated suspect a
cylinder head gasket.
Is air flow through radiator restricted or blocked?
YES - Apply air pressure from engine side of
radiator to clear obstruction.
If both systems are contaminated, suspect the
radiator.
NO -
Continue.
If only the lubrication system is contaminated with
coolant, suspect leakage past cylinder liner seals or
cylinder head gasket.
Are there any external leaks, from water pump,
engine gaskets, fast idle thermostat or the heater
unit?
YES - Investigate and rectify. See Adjustment,
Coolant
NO -
Continue.

NO -
Rectify.
YES - Continue
Is viscous unit operating correctly? See
Description and operation, Viscous Fan
NO - Renew. See Repair, Viscous
Coupling, Fan Blades, Pulley and Fan
Cowl
YES - Carry out a pressure test on radiator cap
and system. Check thermostat type,
operation and correct fitting. See Repair,
Thermostat
If pressure test leads you to suspect coolant
leakage across gaskets, go to check 10,
otherwise: Continue.
