b. Lift the engine with a hoist to install it onto widely use engine stand. CAUTION:
• Use the engine stand that has a load capacity [approximately 135 kg (298 lb) or more] large
enough for supporting the engine weight.
• If the load capacity of stand is not adequate, remo ve the following parts beforehand to reduce the poten-
tial risk of overturning stand.
- Exhaust manifold; Refer to EM-144 .
- Rocker cover; Refer to EM-153 .
NOTE:
The figure shows an example of widely used engine stand (A)
that can support mating surface of transaxle with flywheel (M/T
models) or drive plate (A/T or CVT models) removed.
CAUTION:
Before removing the hanging chains, make sure the engine
stand is stable and there is no risk of overturning.

• If reduction appears in places other than (B) range, regard it as (d 2).
• If it exceeds the limit (a large difference in dimensions), replace main bearing cap bolt with a new one.
CONNECTING ROD BOLT OUTER DIAMETER • Measure the outer diameter (d) at position as shown.
• If reduction appears in a position other than (d), regard it as (d).
• When (d) exceeds the limit (when it becomes thinner), replace connecting rod bolt with a new one.
CLOGGED OR DAMAGED OIL FILTER (FOR INTAKE VALVE TIMING CONTROL)
• Make sure that there is no foreign material on the oil filter and check it for clogging.
- Clean it if necessary.
• Check the oil filter for damage.
- Replace it if necessary.
FLYWHEEL DEFLECTION (M/T MODELS) • Measure the deflection of flywheel contact surface to clutch with a dial indicator (A).
• Measure the deflection at 210 mm (8.27 in) diameter.
• If measured value is out of the standard, replace flywheel.
• If a trace of burn or discolorati on is found on the surface, repair it
with sandpaper.
CAUTION:
When measuring, keep magnetic fields (such as dial indicator
stand) away from signal plate of the rear end of crankshaft.
MOVEMENT AMOUNT OF FLYWHEEL (M/T MODELS) CAUTION:
Never disassemble double mass flywheel.
Movement Amount of Thrust (Fore-and-Aft) Direction • Measure the movement amount of thrust (fore-and-af t) direction when 100 N (10.2 kg, 22 lb) force is added
