2. Disconnect vacuum hose at engine side.
3. Remove EVAP hoses at engine side.
4. Remove air conditioner compressor from the engine with the piping connected. Temporarily position the

air conditioner compressor on the vehicle side with a rope without placing a heavy load on the piping.

Vehicle Underbody

1. Remove ground cable at transaxle side.
2. Remove drive shafts (RH/LH). Refer to

FAX-15, "Exploded View"

ENGINE ASSEMBLY

3. Remove rear torque rod (1).

4. Preparation for the

work of transaxle is as follows:

• Remove transaxle joint bolts which pierce at oil pan (upper) lower rear side. Refer to

EM-82, "Exploded

View"

Removal

1. When engine can be hoisted, install engine slinger to cylinder

head front left side (A) and rear right side (B) and support the

engine position with a suitable tool.

2. Use a suitable tool (A) to securely support the bottom of the

engine and the transaxle assembly.

CAUTION:

Put a piece of wood or an equivalent as the supporting sur-

face and secure in a stable condition.

3. Remove engine mounting insulator (RH) (1).

4. Remove engine through bolt-securing nut (C).

5. Carefully lower jack, or raise lift to remove the engine and the transaxle assembly. Observe the following

cautions:

CAUTION:

• Check that no part interferes with the vehicle side.

• Before and during lifting, always check if any harnesses are left connected.

• During removal, always be careful to prevent the vehicle from falling off the lift due to changes in

the center of gravity.

• If necessary, support the vehicle by setting jack or suitable tool at the rear.

Separation

1. Remove starter motor. Refer to

STR-30, "Exploded View"

2. Lift with a hoist and separate the engine from the transaxle assembly. Refer to

TM-27, "Exploded View"

(M/T models),

TM-250, "Exploded View"

(A/T models),

TM-452, "Exploded View"

(CVT models).

INSTALLATION

Installation is in the reverse order of removal.

CAUTION:

• Do not allow engine oil to get on engine mounting insulator. Be careful not to damage engine mount-

ing insulator.

• Check that each mounting insulator is seated properly, and tighten nuts and bolts.

• When installation directions are specified, install parts according to the direction marks on them,

referring to the figure of components. Refer to

EM-82, "Exploded View"

Engine Mounting Insulator (RH)

• Tighten bolts in the numerical order as shown.

INSPECTION AFTER INSTALLATION

• Before starting engine, check oil/fluid levels including engine coolant and engine oil. If less than required

quantity, fill to the specified level. Refer to

MA-12, "Fluids and Lubricants"

• Use procedure below to check for fuel leakage.

• Turn ignition switch ON (with engine stopped). With fuel pressure applied to fuel piping, check for fuel leak-

age at connection points.

• Start engine. With engine speed increased, check again for fuel leakage at connection points.

• Run engine to check for unusual noise and vibration.

NOTE:

If hydraulic pressure inside timing chain tensioner drops after removal and installation, slack in the guide

may generate a pounding noise during and just after engine start. However, this is normal. Noise will stop

after hydraulic pressure rises.

• Warm up engine thoroughly to make sure there is no leakage of fuel, exhaust gas, or any oils/fluids including

engine oil and engine coolant.

• Bleed air from passages in lines and hoses, such as in cooling system.

• After cooling down engine, again check oil/fluid levels including engine oil and engine coolant. Refill to spec-

ified level, if necessary.

• Summary of the inspection items:

*Power steering fluid, brake fluid, etc.

INFOID:0000000009266671

NOTE:

The following procedures explain how to disassemble the engine with the engine stand fastened to the bell

housing. Some steps may be different if using a different type of engine stand.
1. Install engine to engine stand:
a. Remove flywheel or drive plate.

• Secure flywheel (1) (M/T models) or drive plate (A/T or CVT

models) using Tool (A), and remove bolts.

CAUTION:

• Do not disassemble flywheel.

• Do not place flywheel or drive plate with signal plate fac-

ing down.

• When handling signal plate, take care not to damage or

scratch it.

• Handle signal plate in a manner that prevents it from

becoming magnetized.

b. Lift the engine with a hoist to install it onto a suitable tool.

CAUTION:

• Use the engine stand that has a load capacity approximately 150 kg (331 lb) or more large

enough for supporting the engine weight.

• If the load capacity of stand is not adequate, remove the following parts beforehand to reduce the poten-

tial risk of overturning stand.

- Intake manifold. Refer to

EM-27, "Exploded View"

- Exhaust manifold. Refer to

EM-30, "Removal and Installation"

- Rocker cover. Refer to

EM-44, "Exploded View"

NOTE:

The figure shows an example of widely used engine stand (A)

that can support the mating surface of transaxle with flywheel

removed.

CAUTION:

Before removing the hanging chains, check the engine

stand is stable and there is no risk of overturning.

2. Drain engine oil. Refer to

LU-9, "Draining"

CAUTION:

• Be sure to clean drain plug and install with new drain plug washer.

• Do not reuse drain plug washer.
