Assembly - Rear

1. Assemble the rear of the engine by completing the following steps:

A. Connect the air regulator connector and hose.


B. Connect the water hose to the lower side of the collector.

C. Install the PCV hose.

D. Install the FICD air hose and vacuum hoses.

E. Install the EGR valve upper and lower tube nuts and tighten to 24 - 32 ft. lbs. (33-45 Nm).

F. Install EGR temperature sensor connector (California only).

2. Install the plenum ornament cover. Clean all the plenum ornament cover bolt threads with a wire brush. Apply a small amount of Loctite # 222 (purple) to the screw threads and torque each screw to 53 - 69 in. lbs. (6 - 8 Nm).

*3. Perform an electrical circuit test using the following procedure.





*NOTE:
* The negative battery cable must be disconnected prior to performing this test.

* A. Turn the dome light switch off and close all doors and trunk lid.

* B. Check the resistance between the negative battery cable and the positive battery terminal with a volt/ohm meter. (Negative test lead to the negative battery cable; positive test lead to the positive battery terminal). Record this value on the repair order.

* C. Reverse the tester leads and check the resistance. (Negative test lead to the positive battery terminal; positive test lead to the negative battery cable). Record this value in the repair order.

* If the resistance value is more than 100 ohms in either steps B or C, the circuit is normal, If the resistance reading is less than 100 ohms in both steps B or C, the circuit may be shorted. Check the sub-harness to see if it is caught between the EGI harness clamps and/or other engine components.

4. Reconnect the ground lead to the battery and recheck your work.

5. Start engine and inspect for leaks.

*6. Perform the driveability test as found in this bulletin. Erase any codes stored in ECCS memory and reset the clock and radio presets.

7. Perform the "Final Inspection Checklist" in this bulletin. Make a copy of this checklist for each vehicle that receives this campaign and attach the completed checklist to the vehicle repair order.
