Engine Oil Filter (3/4-turn type)
1. Remove the oil filterwiththesDecial tool.
2. Inspect the threads {A) and rubber seal (B) on the
new filter. Wipe off the seat on the engine block,
then apply a light coat of oil to the filter rubber seal.
Use only filters with a built-in bypass system.
Installthe oilfilter by hand.
After the rubber seal seats, tighten the oil filter
clockwise with the special tool.
Tighten: 3/4 turn clockwise.

5. lf 4 numbers or marks (1 to 4 or V to VVVV) are
printed around the outside of the filter, use the
following procedure to tighten the filter.
. Spin the filter on until its seal lightly seats against
the block, and note which number or mark is at
the bottom.. Tighten the filter by turning it clockwise 3
numbers or marks from the one you noted. For
example, if number 2 is at the bottom when the
seal is seated, tighten the filter until the number 1
comes around the bottom.

Water Pump Inspection
Remove the drive belt (see page 4-26),
Turn the water pump pulley counterclockwise.
Check that it turns freely.
Check for signs of seal leakage. A small amount of"weeping" from the bleed holes (A) is normal.
Water Pump Replacement
1. Remove the drive belt (see page 4-26).
2. Drain the engine coolant {see page 10-6).
3. Remove the crankshaft pulley (see page 6-11).
4. Remove the six bolts securing the water pump,
then remove the water pump (A).
6x1.0mm12 N m {1.2 kgt m,8.7 rbf.ft)
Inspect and clean the O-ring groove and mating
surface with the water passage.
Installthe water pump with new O rings in the
reverse order of removal.
7. Clean up any spilled engine coolant.
8. Installthe crankshaft pulley (see page 6-12).
L Refill the radiator with engine coolant, and bleed
air from the cooling system with the heater valve
open {see page 10-6}.

13. Attach the special tool to the mainshaft as follows:
. Back-out the mainshaft holder bolt {A) andloosen
the two hex bolts (B).
. Fit the holder over the mainshaft so its lip is
towards the transmission.. Align the mainshaft holder's lip around the
groove at the inside of the mainshaft splines,
then tighten the hex bolts.

07GAJ-PG20130
Seat the mainshaft fully by tapping its end with a
plastic hammer.
Thread the mainshaft holder bolt in until it just
contacts the wide surface of the mainshaft base.
16. Zero a dial gauge {A) on the end ofthe mainshaft.
Turn the mainshaft holder bolt (B) clockwise; stop
turning when the dial gauge (A) has reached its
maximum movement. The reading on the dial
gauge is the amount of mainshaft end play
NOTE: Do not turn the mainshaft holder bolt more
than 60 degrees after the needle of the dial gauge
stops moving, this may damage the transmission.
lf the reading is within the standard, the clearance
is correct. lf the reading is not within the standard,
recheck the shim thickness.
Standard: 0.11 -0.17 mm (0.004 0.007 in.)

front wheels are aligned straight ahead, then center
the cable reel (A). Do this by first rotating the cable
reel clockwise until it stops. Then rotate it
counterclockwise about two and a half turns. The
arrow mark (B) on the cable reel label should point
straight up.
Position the two tabs (A) of the turn signal
canceling sleeve (B) as shown. Installthe steering
wheel onto the steering column shaft, making sure
the steerlng wheel hub (C) engages the pins (D) of
the cable reel and tabs of the canceling sleeve. Do
not tap on the steering wheel or steering column
shaft when installing the steering wheel.
