22) Remove the O-ring from the cylinder block.





23) Install the A/C compressor bracket bolts and the power steering pump bracket bolts at the locations shown in the figure.

NOTE:
^ This procedure is required to prevent the knock pin damage when the cylinder block is raised in the next step.
^ Use the same length bolt for the four bolts.





24) Raise the cylinder block so that the rear oil seal is on the lower side.
25) Remove the #1 and #4 connecting rod caps and pistons from the cylinder block.

NOTE:
Mark each connecting rod cap and piston with a cylinder number.

(1) Turn the crankshaft so that the #1 connecting rod cap (A) and #4 connecting rod cap (B) is located at the position shown in the figure using ST.

(5) Push the #2 connecting rod in the direction of the arrow, and remove the #2 piston with #2 connecting rod from the cylinder block.





(6) Using the ST, turn the crankshaft clockwise and separate the positions of the #3 crank pin (A) and the large end of the #3 connecting rod (B).
ST 18252AA000 CRANKSHAFT SOCKET





(7) Push the #3 connecting rod in the direction of the arrow, and remove the #3 piston with #3 connecting rod from the cylinder block.





27) Set the cylinder block so that the oil pan side is on the upper side, and remove the A/C compressor bracket bolts and the power steering pump bracket bolts attached at the locations shown in the figure.





28) Set the part so that the cylinder block RH is on the upper side, and separate the cylinder block.

CAUTION:
^ Place a wood board wrapped with a waste cloth to prevent the knock pin damage and to stabilize the cylinder block before work.
^ Be careful not to scratch the mating surface of cylinder block during work.


(1) Remove the bolt shown in the figure.





(2) Loosen the cylinder block mounting bolts in numerical order as shown in the figure, and separate the cylinder block RH and LH.

NOTE:
Lift the cylinder block RH slightly, and confirm that the crankshaft is remaining in the cylinder block LH. If the cylinder block RH is lifted carelessly when separating, the crankshaft may stick to cylinder block RH, then fall off.





29) Remove the crankshaft from cylinder block LH, and remove the rear oil seal.
30) Remove the O-ring from the cylinder block LH.
