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).)
