Removal

CAUTION:
- Use fender covers to avoid damaging painted surfaces.
- To avoid damaging the cylinder head, wait until the engine coolant temperature drops below normal operating temperature before removing it.
- When handling a metal gasket, take care not to fold the gasket or damage the contact surface of the gasket.
- To avoid damage, unplug the wiring connectors carefully while holding the connector portion.

NOTE:
- Mark all wiring and hoses to avoid misconnection.
- Turn the crankshaft pulley so that the No. 1 piston is at top dead center.

14. Remove the low pressure fuel tube (A).




15. Remove the LH/RH high pressure fuel pipes (A).




16. Disconnect the cross over pipe (A) and then remove the LH/RH injector & rail assembly (B).




17. Remove the LH/RH knock sensors (A) and then remove the wiring assembly bracket (B).








18. Remove the water hose (A).

NOTE:
In case that the timing system has been completely disassembled, the timing chain can be installed with all of chain installation mark of the sprocket and timing marked chain links aligned without additional marking. However, during on-vehicle repair (for cylinder head assembly, timing chain tensioner, CVVT, camshaft, HLA or etc.), when it is not necessary to remove the timing chain completely, mark the timing chain links corresponding to the chain installation marks on the sprocket with an indication mark with a suitable marking paint pen when the No.1 piston is at TDC position because it is very difficult to align all of the chain installation mark of the sprocket and the timing marked chain links.
