21. Hook hoists to slingers to secure the position.
22. Remove installation nuts for left and right engine mount insu-
lators.
23. While adjusting position frequently, hoist and remove the
engine.
CAUTION:
+While performing operation, check that all necessary
wires and pipes are disconnected.
+Avoid interference with parts on the vehicle.
Installation
Install the engine in the reverse order of the removal procedure.
+Keep each mount insulator from oil adherence and damage.
+As for identification and installation direction of left and right
insulators, refer to stamping on the top surface. Refer to
EM-1064.
+As for a location with positioning pin, insert the pin correctly
to the hole of mating part.
+While keeping each mount insulator free from twisting,
tighten mounting bolts and nuts for the engine mount.
Inspection
+Before starting the engine, check coolant level and grease
amount, and if necessary, refill them to the specified level.
+Start the engine, and check that there is no abnormal noise
or vibration.
+Warm up the engine to the sufficient temperature, and check
that there is no leakage of coolant, greases, fuel, or exhaust
gas.

Selection Procedure for Selective Part
Combination
Location Selective part combination Item Method
Cylinder block - pistonPiston and piston assembly
(Part No. is given to a piston
and piston pin as a set.)Piston grade (Piston outer
diameter)Refer to ªSelective combination
chartº.
+Identification grade stamped on each part represents initial
dimension of new part. This grade will not be applied to a
reused part.
+Measure correct dimensions of a reused or modified part,
then refer to ªSelective combination chartº in this manual to
identify the grade.
+Refer to the applicable pages for measurement method for
each part, standards for reuse, and selecting method for
selective part combination.
Disassembly
1. Remove engine assembly from vehicle.
Refer to EM-1064, ªENGINE REMOVALº.
2. Remove pilot bushing from flywheel using pilot bearing puller
(SST), if necessary (M/T model).
3. Install engine to engine stand (SST).
1) Remove flywheel (M/T model) or drive plate (A/T model).
+Using ring gear stopper (SST), secure ring gear, and remove
mounting bolts.
CAUTION:
Do not disassemble flywheel.
+Flywheel has a two-piece structure. When being pressed
forward/backward, or twisted in rotating direction, transmis-
sion-side mass will be moved with audible sound. This is not
a problem.
2) Remove pilot converter (A/T model) and rear plate.

3) Install engine sub-attachment (SST) to the rear side of cylin-
der block.
+Align knock pin on cylinder block with pin hole on attachment
to install engine sub-attachment.
+Mounting bolts are provided with engine sub-attachment.
4) Install engine attachment (SST).
+Use commercially available M12 mounting bolts and nuts (4
sets) with strength grade of 9T (minimum).
5) Hoist engine and install it to the engine stand (SST).
+Engine attachment and engine sub-attachment can be
installed to engine stand before engine installation.
4. Drain engine oil and coolant from engine.
5. Remove the following parts and related parts. (Only major
parts are listed.)
+Accessory belt
+Catalytic converter

7. Remove piston and connecting rod assembly.
+Before removing piston and connecting rod assembly, check
connecting rod side clearance.
Refer to EM-1072,ªCONNECTING ROD SIDE CLEAR-
ANCEº.
1) Move crankshaft pin to be removed to approximately BDC.
2) Remove connecting rod caps.
3) Using the grip of a hammer, press the piston and connect-
ing rod assembly out to cylinder head side.
CAUTION:
When removing the piston and connecting rod assembly,
prevent the big end of the connecting rod from interfering
with the oil jet.
8. Remove connecting rod bearings from connecting rods and
caps.
+Keep them by cylinder to avoid confusion.
9. Remove piston rings from pistons using piston ring expander
(multi-purpose tool).
CAUTION:
+When removing, prevent pistons from being damaged.
+Do not expand piston rings excessively. This may dam-
age the piston rings.
10. Remove pistons from connecting rods.
1) Using long nose pliers, remove snap rings.
