 Avoid damaging sliding or mating surfaces. Completely re
move foreign materials such as cloth lint or dust.
Before assembly, oil sliding surfaces well.
 Release air within route when refilling after draining engine coolant.
 After repairing, start engine and increase engine speed to check engine coolant, fuel, engine oil, and
exhaust gases for leakage.
Parts Requiring Angle TighteningINFOID:0000000006289515
 Use angle wrench [SST: KV10112100 (BT8653-A)] for the final tightening of the following engine parts:
- Cylinder head bolts
- Main bearing cap bolts
- Main bearing cap sub bolts
- Connecting rod cap bolts
- Crankshaft pulley bolt (No angle wrench is required as the bolt flange is provided with notches for angletightening)
 Ensure thread and seat surfaces are clean and coated with engine oil.
Precaution for Liquid GasketINFOID:0000000006289516
REMOVAL OF LIQUID GASKET SEALING
 After removing mounting nuts and bolts, separate the mating sur- face using the seal cutter [SST:KV10111100 (J-37228)] (A) and
remove old liquid gasket sealing.
CAUTION:
Be careful not to damage the mating surfaces.
 Tap the seal cutter to insert it (B), and then slide it (C) by tapping on the side as shown in the figure.
 In areas where the seal cutter is difficult to use, lightly tap the parts using a plastic hammer to remove it.
CAUTION:
If for some unavoidable reason a tool such as a screwdriver is
used, be careful not to damage the mating surfaces.
LIQUID GASKET APPLICATION PROCEDURE
1. Using a scraper (A), remove old liquid gasket adhering to the liq- uid gasket application surface and the mating surface.
 Remove liquid gasket completely from the groove of the liquidgasket application surface, mounting bolts and bolt holes.
2. Wipe the liquid gasket application surface and the mating sur- face with white gasoline (lighting and heating use) to remove
adhering moisture, grease and foreign materials.
3. Attach liquid gasket tube to the tube presser (commercial ser- vice tool).
Use Genuine RTV Silicone Seal ant or equivalent. Refer to
GI-22, "
Recommended Chemical Products and Sealants".
4. Apply liquid gasket without gaps to the specified location accord- ing to the specified dimensions.
 If there is a groove for liquid gasket application, apply liquidgasket to the groove.

HIGH PRESSURE FUEL PUMP AND FUEL HOSE
 Check that rotation stopper (A) of fuel feed hose contact highpressure fuel pump.
6. Tighten mounting bolts that are temporarily tightened in step 3.
7. Connect harness connector to high pressure fuel pump.
8. Install fuel pump connector protector.
9. Connect harness connector to low fuel pressure sensor.
10. Note the following, and connect quick connector to install fuel feed hose.
a. Check the connection for foreign material and damage.
b. Align center to insert quick connector straightly into fuel tube. NOTE:
The figure shows engine side as an example.
 Insert fuel tube into quick connector until the top spool on fueltube is inserted completely and the second level spool is posi-
tioned slightly below quick connector bottom end.
CAUTION:
 Hold “A” position in the figure when inserting fuel tube
into quick connector.
 Carefully align center to avoid inclined insertion to pre-
vent damage to O-ring inside quick connector.
 Insert until you hear a “c lick” sound and actually feel
the engagement.
 To avoid misidentification of engagement with a similar sound , be sure to perform the next
step.
c. Before clamping fuel feed hose with hose clamps, pull quick connector hard by hand holding “A” position.
Check it is completely engaged (connected) so that it does not come out from fuel feed tube.
d. Install quick connector cap to quick connector connection.  Install so that the arrow mark on the side faces up.
CAUTION:
 Check that quick connector and fuel tube are securely fitinto quick connector cap installation groove.
 If quick connector cap canno t be installed smoothly,
quick connector may have not been installed correctly.
Check connection again.
11. Install in the reverse order of removal.

INSPECTION AFTER INSTALLATION
Check for Fuel Leakage
1. Turn ignition switch “ON” (with the engine stopped). With fuel pressure applied to fuel piping, check that
there is no fuel leakage at connection points.
NOTE:
Use mirrors for checking at points out of clear sight.
2. Start the engine. With engine speed increased, check again that there is no fuel leakage at connection
points.

Exploded View".
16. Install oil pan (lower) and oil strainer. Refer to EM-54, "
Exploded View".
17. Install water pump pulley. Refer to CO-18, "
Exploded View".
18. Install crankshaft pulley.  Fix the crankshaft as instructed in the removal procedure. Refer to EM-96, "
FRONT OIL SEAL :
Removal and Installation".
a. Install crankshaft pulley, taking care not to damage front oil seal.
b. Apply engine oil onto threaded parts of crankshaft pulley bolt and seating area.  Lightly tapping its center with plastic hammer, insert crankshaft pulley.
CAUTION:
Never tap crankshaft pulley on the side surface wh ere belt is installed (outer circumference).
c. Tighten crankshaft pulley bolt.
d. Put a paint mark (A) on crankshaft pulley (1) aligning with angle mark (B) on crankshaft pulley bolt.
e. Tighten crankshaft pulley bolt (clockwise).
 Check the tightening angle by referencing to the notches. Theangle between two notches is 90 degrees.
