• When installing transmission to the engine, attach the bolts as shown.
NOTE:
*: No.2 bolt also secures air breather vent.
CAUTION:
• When replacing an engine or transmission you must make
sure the dowels are installed correctly during re-assembly.
• Improper alignment caused by missing dowels may cause
vibration, oil leaks or breakage of drivetrain components.
• Align the positions of bolts for drive plate with those of the torque
converter, and temporarily tighten the bolts. Then tighten the bolts
with the specified torque.
CAUTION:
• When turning crankshaft, turn it clockwise as viewed from the
front of the engine.
• After converter is installed to drive plate, rotate crankshaft
several turns and check to be sure that transmission rotates
freely without binding.
• Install crankshaft position sensor (POS).
• After completing installation check fluid leakage, fluid level and the
positions of A/T. Refer to AT-13, "
Checking Automatic Transmis-
sion Fluid (ATF)", AT-208, "Checking of A/T Position" and AT-208, "Adjustment of A/T Position".

Precaution for Service of CompressorINFOID:0000000003533224
• Plug all openings to prevent moisture and foreign matter from entering.
• When the compressor is removed, store it in the same position as it is when mounted on the car.
• When replacing or repairing co mpressor, follow “Maintenance of Oil Quantity in Compressor”
exactly. Refer to ATC-20, "
Maintenance of Oil Quantity in Compressor".
• Keep friction surfaces between clutch and pulley clean . If the surface is contaminated with oil, wipe
it off by using a clean wast e cloth moistened with thinner.
• After compressor service operation, turn the compressor shaft by hand more than 5 turns in both
directions. This will equa lly distribute oil inside the compresso r. After the compressor is installed,
let the engine idle and oper ate the compressor for 1 hour.
• After replacing the compressor magnet clutch, ap ply voltage to the new one and check for normal
operation. Refer to ATC-155, "
Removal and Installation for Compressor Clutch".

Maintenance of Oil Quantity in CompressorINFOID:0000000003533232
The oil in the compressor circulates through the system with the refrigerant. Add oil to compressor when
replacing any component or after a large refrigerant leakage has occurred. It is important to maintain the spec-
ified amount.
If oil quantity is not maintained properly, the following malfunctions may result:
• Lack of oil: May lead to a seized compressor
• Excessive oil: Inadequate cooling (thermal exchange interference)
OIL
Name: NISSAN A/C System Oil Type S or equivalent
CHECKING AND ADJUSTING
CAUTION:
If excessive oil leakage is noted, do no t perform the oil return operation.
Start the engine and set the following conditions:
Test Condition
• Engine speed: Idling to 1,200 rpm
• A/C switch: On
• Blower fan speed: MAX position
• Temp. control: Optional [Set so that intake air temperature is 25 ° to 30 ° C (77 ° to 86 °F)]
• Intake position: Recirculation ( )
• Perform oil return operation for about ten minutes
Adjust the oil quantity according to the following table.
Oil Adjusting Procedure for Components Replacement Except Compressor
After replacing any of the following major component s, add the correct amount of oil to the system.
Amount of oil to be added :
• *1: If refrigerant leak is small, no addition of oil is needed.
