CAUTION:
When replacing an engine or transmission you must make sure any dowels are installed correctly
during re-assembly.
Improper alignment caused by missing dowels may cause vibration, oil leaks or breakage of drive
train components.
Do not reuse O-rings and copper washers. Refer to AT- 2 5 3 , "COMPONENTS" .
When turning crankshaft, turn it clockwise as viewed from the front of the engine.
When tightening the bolts for the torque converter while securing the crankshaft pulley bolt, be
sure to confirm the tightening torque of the crankshaft pulley bolt. Refer to EM-37, "
TIMING
CHAIN" .
After converter is installed to drive plate, rotate crankshaft several turns to check that transaxle
rotates freely without binding.
When installing the torque converter to the transaxle measure
distance A.
Check the fitting of the dowel pins when installing the transaxle
assembly and the engine assembly.
: Dowel pin (2)
When installing the transaxle to the engine, align the matching mark on the drive plate with the matching
mark on the torque converter.
When securing the transaxle to the engine, attach the bolts in
accordance with the following standard.
(A): A/T to engine
(B): Engine to A/TDimension A: 14.4 mm (0.567 in) or more
