Removal and Replacement
ENGINE AND TRANSAXLE ASSEMBLYREMOVAL
CAUTION
^ Use fender covers to avoid damaging painted surfaces.
^ 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.
1. Remove the engine cover(A).
2. Recover refrigerant by opening the high & low pressure pipe caps and connecting the refrigerant station.
3. Remove the under cover(A).
4. Drain engine oil, transaxle fluid and engine coolant.
5. Disconnect the negative terminal from the battery and remove the battery(A).
6. Remove the intake air hose and air cleaner assembly.
1) Disconnect the MAF connector(A).
2) Disconnect the breather hose(B) from air cleaner hose.
3) Remove the intake air hose and air cleaner assembly(C) with the resonator(D).
7. Disconnect the PCM connectors(A).
8. Remove the battery tray while recovering refrigerant.
9. Disconnect the high and low pressure pipes from the radiator or the compressor.
10. Remove the radiator.
11. Disconnect the engine wiring harness connectors.
1) Disconnect the oil control valve(OCV) harness connector(A) and the knock sensor(LH) harness connector(B)
2) Disconnect the MAP(A), ETC(B), ignition coil harness connector(C) and the injection harness connector(D).
3) Disconnect the battery connector(A), the power steering switch connector(B) and the knock sensor(RH) harness connector(C).

INSTALLATION
Installation is in the reverse order of removal.
Perform the following :
^ Adjust the shift cable.
^ Refill the engine with engine oil.
^ Refill the transaxle with fluid.
^ Refill the radiator with engine coolant.
^ Bleed air from the cooling system with the heater valve open.
^ Clean the battery posts and cable terminals with sandpaper assemble them, then apply grease to prevent corrosion.
^ Inspect for fuel leakage.
After assembling the fuel line, turn on the ignition switch (do not operate the starter) so that the fuel pump runs for approximately two seconds and fuel line pressurizes.
Repeat this operation two or three times, then check for fuel leakage at any point in the fuel line.
