CAUTION:
• When replacing an engine or tr
ansmission you must make sure the dowels are installed correctly
during re-assembly.
• Improper alignment caused by missing dowels m ay cause vibration, oil leaks or breakage of driv-
etrain components.
INSPECTION AFTER INSTALLATION
• Before starting the engine, check oil/fluid levels including engine coolant and engine oil. If the levels are lower than required quantity, fill to the specified level. Refer to MA-12, "
Fluids and Lubricants".
• Use procedure below to check for fuel leakage.
• Turn ignition switch ON (with engine stopped). With fuel pressure applied to the fuel piping, check for fuel leakage at the 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 and 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, exhaust gas, or any oils/fluids including
engine oil and engine coolant.
• Bleed air from passages in lines and hoses, such as in cooling system.
• After cooling down the engine, again check oil/fluid levels including engine oil and engine coolant. Refill to specified level if necessary.

HEADLAMP AIMING
NOTE:
• Before performing aiming adjustment, check the following:
- Ensure all tires are inflated to correct pressure.
- Place vehicle and screen on level surface.
- Ensure there is no load in vehicle other than the driver (or equivalent weight placed in driver's position). Coolant and engine oil filled to correct level, and fuel tank full.
- Confirm spare tire, jack and tools are properly stowed.
- Aim each headlamp individually and ensure other headlamp beam pattern is blocked from screen.
- Use adjusting screw to perform aiming adjustment

General PrecautionINFOID:0000000003771769
WARNING:
When replacing fuel line parts, be sure to observe the following.
• Put a “CAUTION: INFLAMMABLE” sign in the workshop.
• Be sure to work in a well ventilate d area and furnish workshop with a CO
2 fire extinguisher.
• Do not smoke while servicing fuel system. Keep open flames and sparks away from the work area.
CAUTION:
• Before removing fuel line parts, carry out the following procedures:
- Put drained fuel in an explosi on-proof container and put the lid on securely. Keep the container in
safe area.
- Release fuel pressure from the fuel lines. Refer to EC-487, "
Fuel Pressure Check" .
- Disconnect the battery negative terminal.
• Always replace O-rings and clamps with new ones.
• Do not kink or twist hoses when they are being installed.
• After connecting the fuel t ube quick connectors, make sure
the quick connectors are secure.
Ensure that the connector and resin tube do not contact any
adjacent parts.
• After installing tubes, make su re there is no fuel leakage at
connections in the following steps.
- Apply fuel pressure to fuel lines with turning ignition switch
ON (with engine stopped). Th en check for fuel leaks at con-
nections.
- Start the engine and rev it up and check for fuel leaks at con-
nections.
• Use only a Genuine NISSAN fuel filler cap as a replacement. If an incorrect fuel filler cap is used, the MIL may come on.
• For servicing “Evaporative Emission System” parts, refer to EC-491, "
Removal and Installation" .
• For servicing “On Board Refueling Vapor Recovery (ORVR)”
parts, refer to EC-489, "
How to Detect Fuel Vapor Leakage" .

REMOVAL
WARNING:
Follow the “General Precautions” before working on the fuel system. Refer to FL-4, "
General Precau-
tion".
1. Remove the fuel filler cap to release the pressure from inside the fuel tank.
2. Release the fuel pressure from the fuel lines. Refer to EC-487, "
Fuel Pressure Check".
3. Drain the fuel from the fuel tank, if necessary.
a. Position the vehicle so it is level.
b. Check the fuel level on level gauge. If the fuel gauge indicates more than the level as shown (full or almost full), drain the fuel
from the fuel tank until the fuel gauge indicates the level as
shown, or less.
c. Use the following procedure to drain the fuel to the specified level after disconnecting the fuel filler hose from the fuel filler
pipe.
• Insert a suitable hose of less than 15 mm (0.59 in) diameterinto the fuel filler pipe through the fuel filler opening to drain
the fuel from fuel filler pipe.
• Insert a suitable hose into the fuel tank through the fuel filler hose to drain the fuel from the fuel tank.
