Removal

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.

2. Remove the hood.
3. Remove the cowl cover and wiper arm.
4. Disconnect the negative cable(A) from the battery.




5. Remove the engine cover (A).




6. Remove the radiator grill upper guard (A).




7. Loosen the drain plug and drain the engine coolant.
Remove the radiator cap (A) to speed draining.




8. Recover refrigerant.
9. Disconnect the AFS connector (A) and breather hose (B) and then remove the air cleaner assembly (C).




10. Disconnect the radiator upper hose (A) and lower hose (B).








11. Disconnect the heater hoses (A), the fuel hose (B), the purge control solenoid valve (PCSV) hose (C) and the brake booster vacuum hose (D).




12. Remove the engine wire harness from the fuse and relay block.
(1) Remove the ECM connector (B) and the fuse and relay block cover (A).




(2) Remove the connectors (A) and the cable (B) from the fuse and relay block.
(3) Remove the fuse and relay block (C).




(4) Remove the fuse and relay block connector (A) and the multi connector (B).




(5) Remove the fuse and relay block lower cover (A).




(6) Remove the connector (A) from the fuse and relay block lower cover bracket.




(7) Remove the earth cable (A) and the harness protector (B).




13. Disconnect the fan connector (A) and remove the cooling fan assembly (B).




14. Remove the air conditioner high pressure pipe (A).








15. Disconnect the alternator connect (A), cable (B), A/C connector (C), ground cable (D) and then remove the starter protector (E).




16. Disconnect the starter connector (A), cable (B) and then remove the wiring protector.

20. Remove the engine assembly from the vehicle by using hoist.

CAUTION:
When removing the engine assembly, be careful not to damage any surrounding parts or body components.

Installation

Installation is in the reverse order of removal.
Perform the following :
- Adjust the shift cable.
- Refill engine with engine oil.
- Refill a transmission with fluid.
- Clean battery posts and cable terminals with sandpaper. Reassemble, 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.
- Refill a radiator and a reservoir tank with engine coolant.
- Bleed air from the cooling system.
- Start engine and let it run until it warms up. (until the radiator fan operates 3 or 4 times.)
- Turn Off the engine. Check the level in the radiator, add coolant if needed. This will allow trapped air to be removed from the cooling system.
- Put radiator cap on tightly, then run the engine again and check for leaks.
