replace with a new sensor.
7. Remove exhaust mounting bracket between three way catalysts (right and left bank) and transmission. Refer to EX-3, "
EXHAUST SYSTEM" .
8. Remove three way catalysts (right and left bank).
9. Disconnect air fuel ratio sensor 1 (bank 1 and bank 2) harness connectors and remove harness clip.
10. Using the heated oxygen sensor wrench (SST), remove air fuel ratio sensor 1 (bank 1 and bank 2).
CAUTION:

Be careful not to damage air fuel ratio sensor.

Discard any air fuel ratio sensor which has been dropped
onto a hard surface such as a concrete floor; replace with
a new sensor.
11. Remove water pipe and heater pipe on both right and left side. Refer to CO-29, "
WATER OUTLET AND
WATER PIPING" .
12. Remove exhaust manifold cover (right and left bank).
13. Loosen mounting nuts in the reverse order as shown in the fig- ure to remove exhaust manifold with power tool.
NOTE:

Air Fuel Ratio Sensor and Heated Oxygen Sensor
CAUTION:

Before installing a new air fuel ratio sensor and new heated oxygen sensor, clean exhaust system
threads using heated oxygen sensor thread cleaner tool (Commercial Service Tool: J-43897-18 or
J-43897-12) and apply anti-seize lubricant.

Do not over torque air fuel ratio sensor and heated oxygen sensor. Doing so may cause damage to
air fuel ratio sensor and heated oxygen sensor, resulting in the “MIL” coming on.

Exhaust Manifold

Install exhaust manifold and tighten mounting nuts in numerical
order as shown in the figure.
NOTE:
Tighten mounting nuts No. 1 to 4 in two steps. The numerical
order No. 9 to 12 shown second steps.
Air Fuel Ratio Sensor and Heated Oxygen Sensor

Install air fuel ratio sensors and heated oxygen sensors in the original position.

Install referring the following if the installation positions cannot
be identified.
CAUTION:

Before installing a new air fuel ratio sensor and heated oxy-
gen sensor, clean exhaust system threads using oxygen
sensor thread cleaner (commercial service tool: J-43897-18
or J-43897-12), and apply anti-seize lubricant (commercial
service tool).

Do not over torque air fuel ratio sensor and heated oxygen sensor. Doing so may cause damage to
the heated oxygen sensor, resulting in “MIL” coming on.
