ENGINE ASSEMBLY
WARNING:
●Position vehicle on a flat and solid surface.
●Place chocks at front and back of rear wheels.
●Do not remove engine until exhaust system has completely cooled off, otherwise, you may burn
yourself and/or fire may break out in fuel line.
●Before disconnecting fuel hose, release pressure.
Refer to EC-34 (WITH EURO-OBD), EC-428 (WITHOUT EURO-OBD).
●Be sure to lift engine and transaxle in a safe manner.
●For engines not equipped with engine slingers, attach proper slingers and bolts described in
PARTS CATALOG.
CAUTION:
●When lifting engine, be sure to clear surrounding parts. Use special care near accelerator wire
casing, brake lines and brake master cylinder.
●When lifting the engine, always use engine slingers in a safe manner.
●When removing drive shaft, be careful not to damage grease seal of transaxle.
●Before separating engine and transaxle, remove crankshaft position sensor (POS) from the cylin-
der block assembly.
●Always be extra careful not to damage edge of crankshaft position sensor (POS), or signal plate
teeth.
Engine cannot be removed separately from transaxle. Remove engine with transaxle as an assembly.
REMOVAL
1. Drain coolant from radiator and cylinder block. Refer to LC-17, "Chacking Engine Coolant".
2. Remove coolant reservoir tank and bracket.
3. Drain engine oil.
4. Remove battery and battery tray.
5. Remove air cleaner and air duct.
6. Remove drive belts.
7. Remove alternator and air conditioner compressor from engine.

Power steering oil pump does not need to be disconnected from power steering tubes.
9. Remove the following parts:
●RH and LH front tires
●Splash covers
●RH and LH brake caliper assemblies
Refer to BR-28,"Removal".
Brake hose does not need to be disconnected from brake
caliper assembly. Never depress brake pedal.
●RH & LH drive shaft. Refer to AX-11, "Removal".
When removing drive shaft, be careful not to damage
transaxle side grease seal.
●Disconnect control rod and support rod from transaxle. (M/T
