kg-m, 61 to 78 in-lb).
b. Then tighten bolts 1 to 10 as indicated in figure to 6.9 to 8.8
N´m (0.7 to 0.9 kg-m, 61 to 78 in-lb).
18. Hang engine using the right and left side engine slingers with
a suitable hoist.
19. Set a suitable transmission jack under the suspension mem-
ber.
20. Remove right and left side engine mounting nuts.
21. Remove right and left side suspension member bolts.
22. Install aluminum oil pan. Refer to EM-18, ªInstallationº.
23. Set ring gear stopper using the mounting bolt hole.
IBe careful not to damage the signal plate teeth.

24. Install crankshaft pulley to crankshaft.
IAlign pointer with TDC mark on crankshaft pulley.
SEM531G
25. Install crankshaft pulley bolt.
ILubricate thread and seat surface of the bolt with new
engine oil.
a. Tighten to 39 to 49 N´m (4.0 to 5.0 kg-m, 29 to 36 ft-lb).
b. Put a paint mark on the crankshaft pulley.
SEM963E
c. Again tighten by turning 60É to 66É, about the angle from one
hexagon bolt head corner to another.
26. Install camshaft position sensor (PHASE), crankshaft position
sensors (REF)/(POS) and CVTC sensors.
27. Reinstall removed parts in the reverse order of removal.
IWhen installing fuel tube and intake manifold collectors, refer
to EM-12, ªTIGHTENING PROCEDURESº.
IAfter starting engine, keep idling for three minutes. Then
rev engine up to 3,000 rpm under no load to purge air from
the high-pressure chamber of the chain tensioners. The
engine may produce a rattling noise. This indicates that

When removing the oil pans, oil pump assembly and timing
chain from engine, first remove the camshaft position sensor
(PHASE), CVTC sensor and the crankshaft position sensors
(REF)/(POS) from the assembly.
Be careful not to damage sensor edges.
VALVE OIL SEALNBEM0015S011. Remove timing chain. Refer to ªRemoval, EM-23.
2. Remove camshaft brackets and camshaft. Refer to
ªDisassemblyº, EM-41.
3. Remove valve lifters and shims.
4. Remove valve spring with Tool.
5. Reinstall any parts removed in reverse order of removal.
Before removing valve spring, fix valve as follows.
Method A:
Piston concerned should be set at TDC to prevent valve
from falling.
SEM826E
Method B:
Remove spark plug, then install air hose adapter into
spark plug hole and apply air pressure to hold valves in
place. Apply a pressure of 490 kPa (5 kg/cm
2, 71 psi).

Removal and InstallationNBEM0042WARNING:
ISituate vehicle on a flat and solid surface.
IPlace chocks at front and back of rear wheels.
IDo not remove engine until exhaust system has com-
pletely cooled off. Otherwise, you may burn yourself
and/or fire may break out in fuel line.
IFor safety during subsequent steps, the tension of wires
should be slackened against the engine.
IBefore disconnecting fuel hose, release fuel pressure
from fuel line.
Refer to EC-39, ªFuel Pressure Releaseº.
IBefore removing front axle from transmission, place
safety stands under designated front supporting points.
Refer to GI section for lifting points and towing.
IBe sure to hoist engine and transmission in a safe man-
ner.
IFor engines not equipped with engine slingers, attach
proper slingers and bolts described in PARTS CATALOG.
CAUTION:
IWhen lifting engine, be careful not to strike adjacent parts,
especially accelerator wire casing, brake lines, and brake
master cylinder.
IIn hoisting the engine, always use engine slingers in a
safe manner.
IBefore separating engine and transmission, remove
crankshaft position sensor (POS) from the assembly.
IAlways take extra care not to damage edge of crankshaft
position sensor (POS), or ring gear teeth.GI
