c. Remove the air fuel ratio A/F sensors from both left and right
exhaust manifolds using Tool.
CAUTION:

Be careful not to damage the air fuel ratio A/F sensors

Discard any air fuel ratio A/F sensor which has been
dropped from a height of more than 0.5m (19.7 in) onto a
hard surface such as a concrete floor. Replace it with a
new one.
7. Remove the front cross bar.
8. Remove the exhaust manifold (left bank) following the steps
below.
a. Remove the exhaust front tube. Refer to EX-3, "
Removal and
Installation" .
b. Remove the exhaust manifold cover.
c. Loosen the nuts in reverse order of illustration using power tool.
d. Remove the exhaust studs from positions 2, 4, 6, 8 and remove
left exhaust manifold
9. Remove the exhaust manifold (right bank) following the steps
below.
a. Remove the exhaust front tube. Refer to EX-3, "
Removal and
Installation" .
b. Remove the oil level gauge guide. Refer to EM-22, "
OIL PAN
AND OIL STRAINER" .
c. Remove the exhaust manifold cover.
d. Loosen the nuts in reverse order of illustration using power tool.
e. Remove the exhaust studs from positions 2, 4, 6, 8 and remove right exhaust manifold.
INSPECTION AFTER REMOVAL
Surface Distortion

Check the flatness of each exhaust manifold flange surface
using suitable tools.

If measurement exceeds the limit, replace the exhaust manifold.
INSTALLATION
Installation is in the reverse order of removal.

Install new exhaust manifold gasket with the top of the triangular
up mark on it facing up and its coated face (gray side) toward
the exhaust manifold side.Tool number : — (J-44626)

Tighten the exhaust manifold nuts in the numerical order shown.
Then recheck the torque of the nuts.

Before installing new air fuel ration A/F sensors, clean the exhaust system threads using Tool and apply
anti-seize lubricant.
CAUTION:

Do not over tighten the air fuel ratio A/F sensors. Doing so may cause damage to the sensor,
resulting in the MIL coming on.
