COOLING SYSTEM
22. ENGINE DOES NOT REACH NORMAL OPERATING TEMPERATURE
WARNING
Extreme care should be taken when removing surge tank filler cap
if temperature gauge reads above 175F (79C). Steam or hot
coolant under pressure may cause injury.
NOTE
If STE/ICE is available, perform NG31 - Gauge Test (para. 2-24).
Step 1. Start engine (TM 9-2320-272-10). Remove surge tank cap and visually check coolant for
proper circulation.
Stop engine. If coolant is seen circulating and temperature is below 175F (79C), replace
thermostat (para. 3-65 or 3-66).
Step 2. Test coolant temperature gauge, sending unit, and electrical leads for malfunction
(Electrical Troubleshooting, para. 2-22).
a. Replace coolant temperature gauge if defective (para. 3-86).
b. Replace coolant temperature sending unit if defective (para. 3-93).
NOTE
Perform step 3 for M939A2 series vehicles.
Step 3. Observe fan clutch and actuator for proper operation.
Replace fan clutch and/or actuator if defective (para. 3-74).
