end. If the distance is shorter than specified, repeat step 5
above to adjust it. If it is longer, replace the valve seat with a
new one.
Valve Spring Sequences
Position a straightedge to valve spring, turn the spring, and measure
the maximum clearance value between top surface of spring and the
straightedge.
Valve Spring Dimensions and Valve Spring Pressure Load
Using valve spring tester, check the following.Valve seat resurface limit “L”:

lFor engines not equipped with engine slingers, attach proper slingers and bolts described in
PA R T S C ATA L O G.
CAUTION:
lAlways be careful to work safely, avoid forceful or uninstructed operations.
lDo not start working until exhaust system and coolant are cool enough.
lIf items or work required are not covered by the engine main body section, refer to the applicable
sections.
lAlways use the support point specified for lifting.
lUse either 2-pole lift type or separate type lift as best you can. If board-on type is used for
unavoidable reasons, support at the rear axle jacking point with transmission jack or similar tool
before starting work, in preparation for the backward shift of center of gravity.
lFor supporting points for lifting and jacking point at rear axle, refer toGI-37, "Garage Jack and
Safety Stand".

ENGINE ASSEMBLY
lUse a manual lift table caddy or equivalently rigid tool such as a
jack or trestle. Securely support bottom of engine and transaxle,
and simultaneously adjust hoist tension.
CAUTION:
Put a piece of wood or something similar as the supporting
surface, secure a completely stable condition.

23. Remove mounting bolts at front end of center member.
24. Remove front suspension member mounting bolts and nuts.
25. Remove engine, transaxle and transfer assembly with suspen-
sion member from vehicle downward by carefully operating sup-
porting tools.
CAUTION:
lDuring the operation, make sure that no part interferes
with body side.
lBefore and during this lifting, always check if any har-
nesses are left connected.
lDuring the removal operation, always be careful to pre-
vent vehicle from falling off the lift due to changes in the center of gravity.
lIf necessary, support vehicle by setting a jack or equivalent tool at the rear.
26. Remove power steering pump with piping connected from engine. Move it aside on suspension member.
27. Remove front engine mounting and rear engine mounting through-bolts to remove suspension member.
28. Remove starter motor.
29. Separate engine and transaxle.
INSTALLATION
Install in the reverse order of removal.
lDo not allow oil to get on mounting insulator. Be careful not to damage mounting insulator.
lWhen installation directions are specified, install parts according to the direction marks on them referring
to components illustration.
lMake sure that each mounting insulator is seated properly, and tighten mounting bolts and nuts.
INSPECTION AFTER INSTALLATION
lBefore starting engine check the levels of coolant, lubrications and working oils. If less than required
quantity, fill to the specified level.
lBefore starting engine, bleed air from fuel piping. Refer toFL-16, "Air Bleeding".
lRun engine to check for unusual noise and vibration.
lWarm up engine thoroughly to make sure there is no leakage of coolant, lubricants, working oil, fuel and
exhaust gas.
