PRECAUTIONS

[YD22DDTi]PRECAUTIONSPFP:00001
Precautions for Draining Engine CoolantEBS00LQZ
Drain engine coolant when engine is cooled.
Precautions for Disconnecting Fuel PipingEBS00LR0

Before starting work, make sure no fire or spark producing items are in the work area.

After disconnecting pipes, plug openings to stop fuel leakage.
Precautions for Removal and DisassemblyEBS00LR1

When instructed to use special service tools, use the specified tools. Always be careful to work safely,
avoid forceful or uninstructed operations.

Exercise maximum care to avoid damage to mating or sliding surfaces.

Cover openings of engine system with tape or the equivalent, if necessary, to seal out foreign materials.

Mark and arrange disassembly parts in an organized way for easy troubleshooting and re-assembly.

When loosening nuts and bolts, as a basic rule, start with the one furthest outside, then the one diagonally
opposite, and so on. If the order of loosening is specified, do exactly as specified.
Precautions for Inspection, Repair and ReplacementEBS00LR2
Before repairing or replacing, thoroughly inspect parts. Inspect new replacement parts in the same way, and
replace if necessary.
Precautions for Assembly and InstallationEBS00LR3

Use torque wrench to tighten bolts or nuts to specification.

When tightening nuts and bolts, as a basic rule, equally tighten in several different steps starting with the
ones in center, then ones on inside and outside diagonally in this order. If the order of tightening is speci-
fied, do exactly as specified.

Replace with new liquid gasket, packing, oil seal or O-ring.

Thoroughly wash, clean, and air-blow each part. Carefully check engine oil or engine coolant passages for
any restriction and blockage.

Avoid damaging sliding or mating surfaces. Completely remove foreign materials such as cloth lint or dust.
Before assembly, engine oil sliding surfaces well.

Release air within route when refilling after draining coolant.

After repairing, start engine and increase engine speed to check engine coolant, fuel, engine oil, and
exhaust systems for leakage.
Parts Requiring Angle TighteningEBS00LR4

Use an angle wrench (special service tool: KV10112100) for the final tightening of the following engine
parts:
–Cylinder head bolts
–Main bearing cap bolts
–Connecting rod cap nuts
–Crankshaft pulley bolt (No angle wrench is required as the bolt flange is provided with notches for angular
tightening)

Do not use a torque value for final tightening.

The torque value for these parts are for a preliminary step.

Ensure thread and seat surfaces are clean and coated with engine oil.
