5. Remove knock sensor.
CAUTION:
Carefully handle the sensor avoiding shocks.
6. Remove crankshaft position sensor (POS).
CAUTION:
●Avoid impacts such as a dropping.
●Do not disassemble.
●Keep it away from metal particles.
●Do not place sensor close to magnetic materials.
7. Remove flywheel (M/T model) or drive plate (A/T model). Fix crankshaft with a stopper plate, and remove
mounting bolts.
Torx bit (size T55): Flywheel (M/T model)
Torx socket (size T55): Drive plate (A/T model)
CAUTION:
Be careful not to damage contact surface for the clutch disc
of the flywheel.
NOTE:
The flywheels, two block construction, allows movement in
response to transmission side pressure, or when twisted in its
rotational direction. Therefore, some amount of noise is normal.

16. Install flywheel (M/T model) or drive plate (A/T model).
●Install drive plate, reinforcement plate and pilot converter as
shown in figure (A/T model).
●Using drift of 33 mm (1.30 in) in diameter, push pilot converter
into the end of crankshaft (A/T model).
17. Install knock sensor.
●Make sure that there is no foreign material on the cylinder
block mating surface and the back surface of the knock sen-
sor.
●Install sensor with connector facing lower left by 45° as
shown.
●D o n o t t i g h t e n t h e m o u n t i n g b o l t s w h i l e h o l d i n g t h e c o n n e c t o r.
●Make sure that the knock sensor does not interfere with other-

How to Select Piston and Bearing EBS00KNV
DESCRIPTION
*For the service parts, the grade for fitting cannot be selected between a piston pin and a connecting rod.
(Only 0 grade is available.) The information at the shipment from the plant is described as a reference.
●The identification grade stamped on each part is the grade for the dimension measured in new condition.
This grade cannot apply to reused parts.
●For reused or repaired parts, measure the dimension accurately. Determine the grade by comparing the
measurement with the values of each selection table.
●For details of the measurement method of each part, the reuse standards and the selection method of the
selective fitting parts, refer to the text.

MOVEMENT AMOUNT OF FLYWHEEL (M/T MODELS)
NOTE:
●Inspection for double mass flywheel only.
●Do not disassembly double mass flywheel.
Flywheel Deflection
●Measure deflection of flywheel contact surface to the clutch with a dial gauge.
●Measure deflection at 210 mm (8.27 in) dia.
●When measured value exceeds the limit, replace it with a new
one.
Movement Amount in Radial (rotation) Direction
Check the movement amount in the following procedure.
1. Install a bolt to clutch cover mounting hole, and place a torque wrench on the extended line of the flywheel
center line.
●Tighten bolt at a force of 9.8 N·m (1.0 kg-m, 87 in-lb) to keep it from loosening.
2. Put a mating mark on circumferences of the two flywheel
masses without applying any load (Measurement standard
points).
3. Apply a force of 9.8 N·m (1.0 kg-m, 87 in-lb) in each direction,
and mark the movement amount on the mass on the transaxle
side.
4. Measure dimensions of movement amounts A and B on circum-
ference of the flywheel on the transaxle side.
●When measured value is outside the standard, replace fly-
wheel.Standard : 0.45 mm (0.0177 in) or less.
Limit : 1.3 mm (0.051 in) or less.
SBIA0287E
Standard: 28.3 mm (1.114 in) or less.

●Using pilot bushing puller, remove the bushing from rear edge
of crankshaft.
4. Install engine to engine stand as follows.
a. Remove flywheel.
b. Secure ring gear with ring gear stopper, then loosen mounting
bolts with TORX bit (size: Q6T55 E9, Commercial Service Tools)
and remove them. As an alternative method hold the crankshaft
pulley with a pulley holder (SST) to remove the flywheel.
CAUTION:
Do not disassemble flywheel.
