2. Tighten cylinder head bolts in numerical order as shown in figure
with the following procedure, and install cylinder head.
CAUTION:
If cylinder head bolts are re-used, check their outer diame-
ters before installation. Refer to EM-72, "
Cylinder Head
Bolts Outer Diameter" .
a. Apply new engine oil to threads and seating surface of mounting
bolts.
b. Tighten all bolts.
c. Turn all bolts 60 degrees clockwise (angle tightening).
d. Completely loosen.
CAUTION:
In this step, loosen bolts in reverse order of that indicated in the figure.
e. Tighten all bolts.
f. Turn all bolts 75 degrees clockwise (angle tightening).
g. Turn all bolts 75 degrees clockwise again (angle tightening).
CAUTION:
Check and confirm the tightening angle by using an angle
wrench (special service tool) or protractor. Avoid judgment
by visual inspection without the tool.
3. Install in the reverse order of removal after this step.
INSPECTION AFTER INSTALLATION
Inspection for Leaks
The following are procedures for checking fluids leak, lubricates leak and exhaust gases leak.
Before starting engine, check oil/fluid levels including engine coolant and engine oil. If less than required
quantity, fill to the specified level. Refer to MA-17, "
RECOMMENDED FLUIDS AND LUBRICANTS" .
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 fuel, exhaust gases, or any oil/fluids
including engine oil and engine coolant.
Bleed air from lines and hoses of applicable lines, such as in cooling system.
After cooling down engine, again check oil/fluid levels including engine oil and engine coolant. Refill to the
specified level, if necessary. : 50 N·m (5.1 kg-m, 37 ft-lb)

After installing mounting bolts, make sure that crankshaft can be rotated smoothly by hand.
Wipe off completely any protruding liquid gasket on front side of engine.
Check crankshaft end play. Refer to EM-107, "CRANKSHAFT END PLAY" .
7. Install piston to connecting rod with the following procedure:
a. Using snap ring pliers, install new snap ring to the groove of the piston rear side.
Insert it fully into groove to install.
b. Assemble piston to connecting rod.
Using an industrial use drier or similar tool, heat the piston until the piston pin can be pushed in by hand
without excess force [approx. 60 to 70 °C (140 to 158 °F)]. From the front to the rear, insert piston pin
into piston and connecting rod. : 25.1 N·m (2.6 kg-m, 19 ft-lb)

13. Install flywheel (M/T models) or drive plate (A/T models).
CAUTION:
Make sure that dowel pin is installed at the rear end of crankshaft.
When installing flywheel (M/T models) or drive plate (A/T models) to crankshaft, make sure that align
crankshaft side dowel pin with flywheel/drive-plate side dowel pin hole correctly.
CAUTION:
If these are not aligned correctly, engine runs roughly and “MI” turns on.
Secure crankshaft with a stopper plate, and tighten mounting bolts crosswise over several times.

7. Make sure that “CMPLT” is displayed on CONSULT-II screen. If
“CMPLT” is not displayed, Idle Air Volume Learning will not be
carried out successfully. In this case, find the cause of the inci-
dent by referring to the DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURE below.
8. Rev up the engine two or three times and make sure that idle
speed and ignition timing are within the specifications.
Without CONSULT-II
NOTE:
It is better to count the time accurately with a clock.
It is impossible to switch the diagnostic mode when an accelerator pedal position sensor circuit
has a malfunction.
1. Perform EC-46, "
Accelerator Pedal Released Position Learning" .
2. Perform EC-47, "
Throttle Valve Closed Position Learning" .
3. Start engine and warm it up to normal operating temperature.
4. Check that all items listed under the topic PREPARATION (previously mentioned) are in good order.
5. Turn ignition switch OFF and wait at least 10 seconds.
6. Confirm that accelerator pedal is fully released, turn ignition switch ON and wait 3 seconds.
7. Repeat the following procedure quickly 5 times within 5 seconds.
a. Fully depress the accelerator pedal.
b. Fully release the accelerator pedal.
8. Wait 7 seconds, fully depress the accelerator pedal and keep it for approx. 20 seconds until the MI stops
blinking and turned ON.
9. Fully release the accelerator pedal within 3 seconds after the MI turned ON.
10. Start engine and let it idle.
