INSPECTION AFTER REMOVAL
Cylinder Head Bolts Outer Diameter • Cylinder head bolts are tightened by plastic zone tightening method. Whenever the size difference between (d1) and (d2)
exceeds the limit, replac e them with a new one.
• If reduction of outer diameter appear s in a position other than (d2),
use it as (d2) point.
Cylinder Head Distortion NOTE:
When performing this inspection, cylinder block distortion should be also checked. Refer to EM-216, " Inspec-
tion After Disassembly " .
1. Wipe off engine oil and remove water scale (like deposit ), gasket, sealant, carbon, etc. with a scraper.
CAUTION:
Never allow gasket debris to enter passag es for engine oil or engine coolant.
2. At each of several locations on bottom surface of cylinder head, measure the distortion in six di rections using straightedge (A)
and feeler gauge (B).
• If it exceeds the limit, replace cylinder head.
INSTALLATION 1. Install cylinder head gasket.
2. Apply new engine oil to threads and seating surface of bolts. CAUTION: : Engine front

17. Disconnect all connections of engine harness around the engine mounting insulator (LH), and then tem- porarily secure the engine harness into the engine side.
CAUTION:
Protect connectors using a resin bag to protect against foreign materials during the operation.
18. Disconnect fuel feed hose at engine side. Refer to EM-156, " Component " .
19. Disconnect heater hoses, and install plugs them to prevent engine coolant from draining. Refer to CO-47," Component " .
20. Disconnect control cable from transaxle. Refer to CVT-182 or

ponent " .
• Prior to installing the upper torque rod, apply a light coat of silicone lubricant (A) to the washer facing side of the bushing inner tube as
shown.
NOTE:
• Apply silicone lubricant (A) by dabbing the outward facing tube
surface with a sponge or suitable tool.
• Do not apply excess lubricant.
• Make sure that each mounting insulator is seated properly, and tighten nuts and bolts.
• Tighten engine mounting insulator (RH) bolts in the numerical order shown.
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 incl uding engine coolant and engine oil. If less than required
quantity, fill to the specified level. Refer to MA-14 .
• 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, che ck 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 leak age 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.

• Be careful not to damage or deform signal plate (1)
mounted on rear end of crankshaft (A).
• When setting crankshaft on a flat floor surface, use a
block of wood to avoid inte rference between signal plate
and the floor surface.
• Never remove signal plate unl ess it is necessary to do so.
22. Pull rear oil seal out from rear end of crankshaft.
23. Remove main bearings and thrust bearings from cylinder block and main bearing caps.
CAUTION:
Identify installation positions, and store them without mix-
ing them up.
ASSEMBLY 1. Fully air-blow engine coolant and engine oil passages in cylinder block, cylinder bore and crankcase to remove any foreign material.
WARNING:
Use goggles to protect your eyes.
2. Install water drain plug (1) to cylinder block.
• Apply liquid gasket to the drain plug thread.
Use Genuine Silicone RTV Seal ant or equivalent. Refer to
GI-42, " Recommended Chemical Product and Sealant " .
3. Remove dust, dirt, and engine oil on the bearing mating sur- faces of cylinder block and main bearing cap.
4. Install thrust bearings to both sides of the No. 3 journal housing (B) on cylinder block.
• Install thrust bearings with the oil groove (A) facing crankshaft arm (outside).
5. Install the main bearings paying attention to the direction. CAUTION:
• Before installing main bearings , apply new engine oil to the bearing surface (inside). Do not
apply new engine oil to the back surface, but thoroughly clean it.
• When installing, align main b earing to the center position of cylinder block and main bearing
cap.

5. When the repair work is completed, return the ignition switch to the
″LOCK ″ position before connecting
the battery cables. (At this time, the steering lock mechanism will engage.)
6. Perform a self-diagnosis check of al l control units using CONSULT-III.
Precaution for Procedur e without Cowl Top Cover INFOID:0000000004305858
When performing the procedure after removing cowl top cover, cover
the lower end of windshield.
Cautions INFOID:0000000004305859
• When installing rubber bushings, the final tightening mu st be carried out under unladen conditions with tires
on ground. Oil might shorten the life of rubber bushings. Be sure to wipe off any spilled oil.
- Unladen conditions mean that fuel, engine coolant and l ubricant are full. Spare tire, jack, hand tools and
mats are in designated positions.
• After servicing suspension parts, be sure to check wheel alignment.
• Self-lock nuts are not reusable. A lways use new ones when installing. WEIA0178E
