• When replacing an engine or transmission you must make sure any dowels are installed correctly during re-assembly.
• Improper alignment caused by missing dowels may cause vibration, oil leaks or breakage of drive
train components.
• Do not reuse O-rings and copper washers. Refer to "COMPONENTS".
• When turning crankshaft, turn it clockwise as viewed from the front of the engine.
• When tightening the bolts for th e torque converter while securing the crankshaft pulley bolt, be sure
to confirm the tightening torque of the crankshaft pulley bolt. Refer to EM-159
.
• After converter is installed to drive plate, ro tate crankshaft several turns to check that transaxle
rotates freely without binding.
• When installing the torque converter to the transaxle measure dis- tance A.
• Check the fitting of the dowel pins when installing the transaxle assembly and the engine assembly.

• When installing the transaxle to the engine, align the matching mark on the drive plate with the matching mark on the torque converter.
• When securing the transaxle to the engine, attach the bolts in accordance with the following standard.

13. Check foreign materials in oil pan to help determine causes of malfunction. If the ATF is very dark, smells burned, or contains
foreign particles, frictional material (clutches, band) may need
replacement. A tacky film that will not wipe clean indicates var-
nish build up. Varnish can cause valves, servo, and clutches to
stick and can inhibit pump pressure.
•If frictional material is detected, replace radiator after
repair of A/T. Refer to CO-40

INSPECTION AFTER INSTALLATION
• 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, "
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, 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 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 engine, again check oil/fluid levels including engine oil and engine coolant. Refill to spec- ified level, if necessary.

• When connecting or disconnecting pin connectors into or
from TCM, take care not to damage pin terminals (bend or
break).
When connecting pin connectors make sure that there are not
any bends or breaks on TCM pin terminal.
• Before replacing TCM, perform TCM input/output signal
inspection and make sure whether TCM functions properly or
not. CVT-46, "
TCM Terminal and Reference Value".
• After performing each TROUBL E DIAGNOSIS, perform “DTC
Confirmation Procedure”.
If the repair is completed the DTC should not be displayed in
the “DTC Confirmation Procedure”.
• Always use the specified br and of CVT fluid. Refer to MA-14, "
Flu-
ids and Lubricants".
• Use lint-free paper, not cloth rags, during work.
• After replacing the CVT fluid, dispose of the waste oil using the methods prescribed by law, ordinance, etc.
Service Notice or PrecautionINFOID:0000000005928726
CVT FLUID COOLER SERVICE
If CVT fluid contains friction material (clutches, brakes , etc.), or if an CVT is replaced, inspect and clean the
CVT fluid cooler mounted in the radiator or replace the radiator. Flush cooler lines using cleaning solvent and
compressed air after repair. For CVT fluid cooler cleaning procedure, refer to CVT-15, "
CVT Fluid Cooler
Cleaning". For radiator replacement, refer to CO-40.
OBD-II SELF-DIAGNOSIS
• CVT self-diagnosis is performed by the TCM in combination with the ECM. The results can be read through
the blinking pattern of the malfunction indi cator lamp (MIL). Refer to the table on CVT-48, "
CONSULT-III
Function (TRANSMISSION)" for the indicator used to display each self-diagnostic result.
• The self-diagnostic results indicated by the MIL are automatically stored in both the ECM and TCM memo- ries.
Always perform the procedure on CVT-27, "
OBD-II Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC)" to complete the
repair and avoid unnecessary blinking of the MIL.
For details of OBD-II, refer to EC-541, "
Introduction".
• Certain systems and components, especially those re lated to OBD, may use the new style slide-lock-
ing type harness connector. For description and how to disconnect, refer to PG-65
.
