Separation Work
1. Install engine slingers into front of right bank cylinder head and
rear of left bank cylinder head.
2. Remove power steering oil pump from engine side. Refer to PS-
31, "POWER STEERING OIL PUMP" .
3. Remove engine mounting insulator under side nut with power
tool.
4. Lift with hoist and separate engine and transmission assembly
from suspension member.
CAUTION:

Before and during this lifting, always check if any harnesses are left connected.

Avoid damage to and oil/grease smearing or spills onto engine mounting insulator.
5. Remove alternator. Refer to SC-23, "
CHARGING SYSTEM" .
6. Remove starter motor. Refer to SC-10, "
STARTING SYSTEM" .
7. Separate engine from transmission assembly. Refer to AT- 2 6 6 , "
TRANSMISSION ASSEMBLY" .
8. Remove engine mounting insulator and bracket with power tool.
INSTALLATION
Note to the following, and install in the reverse order of removal.

For a location with a positioning pin, insert it securely into hole of
mating part.

For a part with a specified installation orientation, refer to com-
ponent figure in EM-110, "
2WD MODEL" .

When installing engine mounting bracket on cylinder block,
tighten two upper bolts (shown as A in figure) first. Then tighten
two lower bolts (shown as B in figure). (LH and RH sides)

Tighten rear member mounting bolts in numerical order shown
in figure.
INSPECTION AFTER INSTALLATION

Before starting engine, check the levels of engine coolant, engine oil and working fluid. If less than
required quantity, fill to the specified level.

Use procedure below to check for fuel leakage.
–Turn ignition switch ON (with engine stopped). With fuel pressure applied to fuel piping, check for fuel
leakage at connection points.
–Start engine. With engine speed increased, check again for fuel leakage at connection points.

Run engine to check for unusual noise and vibration.

Warm up engine thoroughly to make sure there is no leakage of engine coolant, engine oil, working fluid,
fuel and exhaust gas.Slinger bolts:

5. Remove front drive shaft LH and RH sides. Refer to FAX-12, "FRONT DRIVE SHAFT" .
6. Remove alternator. Refer to SC-23, "
CHARGING SYSTEM" .
7. Remove starter motor. Refer to SC-10, "
STARTING SYSTEM" .
8. Remove front propeller shaft from front final drive assembly side. Refer to PR-4, "
FRONT PROPELLER
SHAFT" .
9. Separate engine from transmission assembly. Refer to AT- 2 6 6 , "
TRANSMISSION ASSEMBLY" .
10. Remove engine mounting insulator FR and engine mounting bracket with power tool.
11. Remove front final drive assembly from oil pan (upper). Refer to FFD-10, "
FRONT FINAL DRIVE ASSEM-
BLY" .
INSTALLATION
Note to the following, and install in the reverse order of removal.

For a location with a positioning pin, insert it securely into hole of
mating part.

For a part with a specified installation orientation, refer to com-
ponent figure in EM-115, "
AWD MODEL" .

When installing engine mounting bracket on cylinder block,
tighten two upper bolts (shown as A in figure) first. Then tighten
two lower bolts (shown as B in figure). (LH and RH sides)

Install engine mounting bracket (lower) paying attention to the
following.
–a. Temporarily tighten mounting bolts (shown as C, D and E in
figure).
–b. Tighten mounting bolts to the specified torque with following
mounting surfaces touched.
 Engine mounting bracket to engine mounting bracket (lower)
(shown as C and D in figure).
 Front final drive to engine mounting bracket (lower) (shown as E
in figure).
INSPECTION AFTER INSTALLATION

Before starting engine, check the levels of engine coolant, engine oil and working fluid. If less than
required quantity, fill to the specified level.

Use procedure below to check for fuel leakage.
–Turn ignition switch ON (with engine stopped). With fuel pressure applied to fuel piping, check for fuel
leakage at connection points.
–Start engine. With engine speed increased, check again for fuel leakage at connection points.

Run engine to check for unusual noise and vibration.

Warm up engine thoroughly to make sure there is no leakage of engine coolant, engine oil, working fluid,
fuel and exhaust gas.

Bleed air from passages in pipes and tubes of applicable lines, such as in cooling system.

After cooling down engine, again check amounts of engine coolant, engine oil and working fluid. Refill to
specified level, if necessary.
