(7) Further tighten all bolts by 80 to 90°in numerical
sequence.
CAUTION:
Ensure that the total“re-tightening angle”[steps (6)
and (7) above] do not exceed 180°.
3) Install oil level gauge guide attaching bolt (left side
only).
4) Install timing belt, camshaft sprocket and related parts.
2. INTAKE MANIFOLD
CAUTION:
Use dry compressed air to remove foreign particles
before installing each solenoid valve and sensor.
1) Install engine coolant pipe.
2) Install intake manifold.
3) Remove ENGINE STAND (ST).

(2) Apply fluid packing to matching surface of oil pump.
Fluid packing:
THREE BOND 1215 or equivalent
(3) Install oil pump on cylinder block. Be careful not to
damage oil seal during installation.
CAUTION:
Do not forget to install O-ring and seal when install-
ing oil pump.
Align flat surface of oil pump’s inner rotor with
crankshaft before installation.

9) Install engine coolant pump and gasket.
CAUTION:
Be sure to use a new gasket.
When installing engine coolant pump, tighten bolts
in two stages in numerical sequence as shown in Fig-
ure.
10) Install engine coolant pipe.
11) Install oil filter.

2-3DIAGNOSTICS
1. Engine Trouble in General
Page 389 of 2890
Type of sound Condition Possible cause
Hissing sound—Loss of compression
Air leakage in air intake system, hoses, connections or
manifolds
Timing belt noise—Loose timing belt
Belt contacting case/adjacent part
NOTE*:
When disconnecting fuel injector connector, Malfunction Indicator Light (CHECK ENGINE light) illuminates and trouble code is stored in
ECM memory.
Therefore, carry out the CLEAR MEMORY MODE and INSPECTION MODE after connecting fuel injector connector. (Ref. to 2-7 On-Board
Diagnostics II System.)
