Kia Forte: Radiator Inspection
Second generation YD (2014-2018) / Kia Forte TD 2014-2018 Service Manual / Engine Mechanical System / Cooling System / Radiator Inspection
Radiator Cap Testing
| 1. |
Remove the radiator cap, wet its seal with engine coolant, and
then install it on a pressure tester.
|
| 2. |
Apply a pressure of 93.16 ~ 122.58 kPa (0.95 ~ 1.25 kgf/cm², 13.51
~ 17.78 psi).
|
| 3. |
Check for a drop in pressure.
|
| 4. |
If the pressure drops, replace the cap.
|
Radiator Leakage Test
| 1. |
Wait until engine is cool, then carefully remove the radiator
cap and fill the radiator with engine coolant, then install it on the
pressure tester.
|
| 2. |
Apply a pressure tester to the radiator and apply a pressure of
93.16 ~ 122.58kpa (0.95 ~ 1.25kg/cm², 13.51 ~ 17.78psi).
|
| 3. |
Inspect for engine coolant leaks and a drop in pressure.
|
| 4. |
Remove the tester and reinstall the radiator cap.
