< REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION >[HR16DE]
ENGINE ASSEMBLY
 If items or work required are not covered by the engine section, follow the procedures in the applica-
ble sections.
 Always use the support point specified for lifting.
 Use either 2-pole lift type or separate type lift as best you can. If board-on type is used for unavoid-
able reasons, support at the rear axle jacking point with a transmission jack or similar tool before
starting work, in preparation for the backward shift of center of gravity.
 For supporting points for lifting and jacking point at rear axle, refer to GI-48, "
Garage Jack and
Safety Stand and 2-Pole Lift".

ENGINE ASSEMBLY
4. Remove engine mounting insulator (RH) (1), engine mounting
bracket (RH) (2) and engine mounting stay (3).
5. Remove engine mounting through bolt-securing nut (A).

CAUTION:
 Make sure that no part interferes with the vehicle side.
 Before and during this lifting, always check if any harnesses are left connected.
 During the removal, always be careful to prevent the vehicle from falling off the lift due to
changes in the center of gravity.
 If necessary, support the vehicle by setting jack or suitable tool at the rear.
Separation
1. Remove starter motor. Refer to STR-13, "Removal and Installation".
2. Lift with a hoist and separate the engine from the transaxle assembly. Refer to EM-89, "

lator.
 Make sure that each mounting insulator is seated properly, and tighten mounting nuts and bolts.
 Tighten engine mounting insulator (RH) bolts in the numerical
order shown.

INSPECTION AFTER INSTALLATION
Inspection for Leaks
 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-19, "
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 leak-
age 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 includ-
ing 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.

INSPECTION AFTER INSTALLATION
The following are procedures for checking fluids leak, lubricates 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 GI-27, "
Recommended Chemical Products and Sealants".
 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 leak-
age 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.
NOTE:
If hydraulic pressure inside timing chain tensioner drops after removal/installation, slack in the guide may
generate a pounding noise during and just after engine start. However, this is normal. Noise will stop after
hydraulic pressure rises.
 Warm up engine thoroughly to make sure there is no leakage of fuel, or any oil/fluids including engine oil and
engine coolant.

 After cooling down engine, again check oil/fluid levels including engine oil and engine coolant. Refill to the
specified level, if necessary.
Summary of the inspection items:
* Transmission/transaxle/CVT fluid, power steering fluid, brake fluid, etc.

TOW TRUCK TOWING
Tow Truck TowingINFOID:0000000001606140
CAUTION:
 All applicable local laws regarding the towing operation must be obeyed.
 It is necessary to use proper towing equipment to avoid possible damage to the vehicle during tow-
ing operation. Towing is in accordance with Towing Procedure Manual at dealer.
 Always attach safety chains before towing.
 When towing, make sure that the transmission, steering system and power train are in good order. If
any unit is damaged, dollies must be used.
NISSAN recommends that the vehicle be towed with the driving (front) wheels off the ground as illustrated.
TOWING AN AUTOMATIC TRANSAXLE MODEL WITH FOUR WHEELS ON GROUND
CAUTION:
Never tow an automatic transaxle model with four wheels on the ground as this may cause serious
and expensive damage to the transaxle.
Vehicle Recovery (Freeing a Stuck Vehicle)INFOID:0000000001606141
 Tow chains or cables must be attached only to the main structural members of the vehicle.
 Pulling devices should be routed so they do not touch any part of the suspension, steering, brake or cooling
systems.
 Always pull the cable straight out from the front or rear of the vehicle. Never pull on the vehicle at an angle.
 Pulling devices such as ropes or canvas straps are not recommended for use in vehicle towing or recovery.
WARNING:
 Do not spin the tires at high speed. This could cause them to explode and result in serious injury.
Parts of the vehicle could also overheat and be damaged.
 Install removable recovery hook securely using wheel nut wrench.
