CAUTION:
• When replacing an engine or tr
ansmission you must make sure the dowels are installed correctly
during re-assembly.
• Improper alignment caused by missing dowels m ay cause vibration, oil leaks or breakage of driv-
etrain components.
INSPECTION AFTER INSTALLATION
• Before starting the engine, check oil/fluid levels including engine coolant and engine oil. If the levels are lower than required quantity, fill to the specified level. Refer to MA-12, "
Fluids and Lubricants".
• Use procedure below to check for fuel leakage.
• Turn ignition switch ON (with engine stopped). With fuel pressure applied to the fuel piping, check for fuel leakage at the connection points.
• Start engine. With engine speed increased, check again for fuel leakage at connection points.
• Run engine to check for unusual noise and vibration.
NOTE:
If hydraulic pressure inside timing chain tensioner drops after removal and installation, slack in the guide
may generate a pounding noise during and just after engine start. However, this is normal. Noise will stop
after hydraulic pressure rises.
• Warm up engine thoroughly to make sure there is no leakage of fuel, exhaust gas, or any oils/fluids including
engine oil and engine coolant.
• Bleed air from passages in lines and hoses, such as in cooling system.
• After cooling down the engine, again check oil/fluid levels including engine oil and engine coolant. Refill to specified level if necessary.

DISASSEMBLY
NOTE:
Explained here is how to disassemble with engine stand supporting transmission surface. When using differ-
ent type of engine stand, some steps may be different.
1. Remove engine assembly and mount to engine stand. Refer to
EM-78, "
Removal and Installation".
CAUTION:
Before removing the hanging chains, make sure engi ne stand is stable and there is no risk of over-
turning.
2. Drain engine coolant by removing the cylinder block drain plugs “A”, “B”, “C” and “D” as shown.
3. Remove the following components and associated parts (the parts referred to in step 1 are not included here).
• Oil pan (upper and lower) and oil strainer. Refer to EM-33, "
Removal and Installation".
• Crankshaft pulley, front cover and timing chain. Refer to EM-45, "
Removal and Installation".
• Camshaft. Refer to EM-53, "
Removal and Installation".
• Cylinder head. Refer to EM-68, "
Removal and Installation".
4. Remove knock sensor and sub harness. CAUTION:
Carefully handle sensor, avoiding shocks.
5. Check connecting rod side clearance. Refer to EM-90, "
Inspection After Disassembly".
6. Remove piston and connecting rod assembly as follows.
a. Position the crankshaft pin corresponding to the connecting rod to be removed onto bottom dead center.
b. Remove connecting rod cap.

6. Install main bearing caps.
• Align the identification number to the journal position to install.
• Install it with the front mark (indicated by the arrow) facing thefront of engine.
• Tap caps lightly to seat them in the installation position.
7. Follow the steps below to tighten each main bearing cap bolt.
a. Apply engine oil to threads and seating surfaces of bolts, and tighten all bolts temporarily.
b. Measure tightening angle using Tool. CAUTION:
Measure tightening angle usin g Tool. Do not measure visu-
ally.
• Rotate crankshaft by hand after bolts are tightened. Check if it rotates smoothly.
• Check crankshaft side clearance. Refer to EM-90, "
Inspection After Disassembly".
8. Install rear oil seal to rear oil seal retainer. CAUTION:
Do not damage or scratch ou ter circumference of oil seal.
• Install new rear oil seal in the direction shown.

12. Install the connecting rod bearings to the connecting rod and
connecting rod cap.
• When installing the connecting rod bearings, apply engine oilto the bearing surface (inside). Do not apply oil to the back
surface, but thoroughly clean it.
• When installing, align the connecting rod bearing stopper pro-
trusion with the cutout of the connecting rod to install.
• Check that the oil holes on the connecting rod and those on the corresponding bearing are aligned.
13. Install the piston and connecting rod assembly to the crankshaft using Tool.
• Position the crankshaft pin corresponding to the connecting
rod to be installed onto bottom dead center.
• Apply engine oil sufficiently to the cylinder bore, piston, and
crankshaft pin.
• Match the cylinder position with the cylinder No. on the con- necting rod to install.
• Install the piston with the front mark on the piston crown facing the front of the engine.
CAUTION:
Be careful not to damage the crankshaft pin, resu lting from an interference of the connecting rod
big end.
14. Install connecting rod cap. • Match the stamped cylinder number marks on the connectingrod with those on the cylinder cap to install.
15. Tighten connecting rod bolts using Tool. • Apply engine oil to threads and seats of connecting rod bolts.
• After tightening bolts, make sure the crankshaft rotatessmoothly.
• Check connecting rod side clearance. Refer to EM-90,

• If clearance exceeds specification, replace either or both the pis-
ton/piston pin assembly and the connecting rod assembly with ref-
erence to the specification of each part.
• Use the piston selection table to replace piston/piston pin assem-
bly. Refer to EM-101, "

Diagnosis DescriptionINFOID:0000000004215511
AUTO ACTIVE TEST
Description
In auto active test mode, the IPDM E/R sends a drive signal to the following systems to check their operation.
• Oil pressure low/coolant pressure high warning indicator
• Oil pressure gauge
• Rear window defogger
• Front wipers
• Tail, license and parking lamps
• Front fog lamps
• Headlamps (Hi, Lo)
• A/C compressor (magnetic clutch)
• Cooling fan
Operation Procedure
1. Close the hood and front door RH, and lift the wiper arms from the windshield (to prevent windshield dam-
age due to wiper operation).
NOTE:
When auto active test is performed with hood opened, sprinkle water on windshield before hand.
2. Turn ignition switch OFF.
3. Turn the ignition switch ON and, within 20 seconds, press the front door switch LH 10 times. Then turn the ignition switch OFF.
4. Turn the ignition switch ON within 10 seconds. Af ter that the horn sounds once and the auto active test
starts.
5. After a series of the following operations is repeated 3 times, auto active test is completed.
NOTE:
When auto active test mode has to be cancelled halfway through test, turn ignition switch OFF.
CAUTION:
• If auto active test mode cannot be actua ted, check door switch system. Refer to DLK-71, "
Descrip-
tion".
• Do not start the engine.
Inspection in Auto Active Test Mode
When auto active test mode is actuated, the following 7 steps are repeated 3 times.

HEADLAMP AIMING
NOTE:
• Before performing aiming adjustment, check the following:
- Ensure all tires are inflated to correct pressure.
- Place vehicle and screen on level surface.
- Ensure there is no load in vehicle other than the driver (or equivalent weight placed in driver's position). Coolant and engine oil filled to correct level, and fuel tank full.
- Confirm spare tire, jack and tools are properly stowed.
- Aim each headlamp individually and ensure other headlamp beam pattern is blocked from screen.
- Use adjusting screw to perform aiming adjustment
