ENGINE REMOVAL/INSTALLATION (4WD)A6E222401001201
Warning
•Fuel vapor is hazardous. It can very easily ignite, causing serious injury and damage. Always keep
sparks and flames away from fuel.
•Fuel line spills and leakage are dangerous. Fuel can ignite and cause serious injuries or death and
damage. Fuel can also irritate skin and eyes. To prevent this, always complete the “Fuel Line
Safety Procedure”.
1. Remove the battery.
2. Remove the battery tray.
3. Remove the radiator.
4. Drain the transaxle oil.
5. Remove the P/S oil pump with the oil hose still connected. Position the P/S oil pump so that it is out of the way.
Use wire or rope to secure.
6. Remove the A/C compressor with the pipes still connected. Position the A/C compressor so that it is out of the
way. Use wire or rope to secure.
7. Remove the propeller shaft from the transfer.
8. Remove the joint shaft. (See M–31 JOINT SHAFT (4WD) DISASSEMBLY/ASSEMBLY.)
9. Remove the front drive shaft (LH) from the transaxle. (See M–39 FRONT DRIVE SHAFT (4WD)
DISASSEMBLY/ASSEMBLY.)
10. Remove the air cleaner, intake air duct, accelerator cable and bracket, and vacuum hose.
11. Remove the ATF hose and selector cable.
12. Remove the vacuum hose and heater hose.
13. Disconnect the fuel hose. (See F1–27 Plastic Fuel Hose Removal Note.) (See F1–28 Plastic Fuel Hose
Installation Note.)
14. Disconnect the wiring harness from the engine side.
15. Remove the three way catalyst (TWC). (See F1–30 EXHAUST SYSTEM REMOVAL/INSTALLATION.)
16. Remove in the order indicated in the table.
17. Install in the reverse order of removal.
18. Start the engine and:
•Inspect for the engine oil, engine coolant, transaxle oil and fuel leakage.
•Verify the ignition timing, idle speed and idle mixture. (See F1–22 IDLE SPEED INSPECTION (4WD).)
19. Perform a road test.

FUEL PUMP (TRANSFER)A6E391213350201Function
•The fuel tank for 4WD is saddle type. Fuel in the fuel gauge sender sub-unit side (right side) is pumped to the
left side of the fuel tank using the fuel pump (transfer).
Structure
•The fuel pump (transfer) is integrated into the fuel pump unit and it cannot be separately disassembled.
•The fuel pump (transfer) is composed of a relief valve and fuel jet pump.

CONTROL SYSTEM
OUTLINEA6E394018880201•The control system is essentially carried over from the current Mazda6 (GG), except for the following. (See
Mazda6 Training Manual 3359-1*-02C.)
Vehicle Adoption
4WD ATX model
•TCM has been adopted. Due to this the PCM terminal of ATX device has been replaced to TCM. The ATX
device information which is needed by the fuel and emission control systems is communicated to the PCM by
the controller area network (CAN).
Unleaded (RON 90 or above) model
•BARO sensor has been eliminated. Due to this the BARO factor for purge control has been eliminated.
