Refer to the figure of components on former page. Refer to EM-178, "
Removal and Installation" .
Exhaust Manifold

Install exhaust manifold in numerical order as shown in the fig-
ure.
NOTE:
Tighten mounting nuts No. 1 to 4 in two steps. The numerical
order No. 9 to 12 shown second steps.
Heated Oxygen Sensor

Install heated oxygen sensors in the original position.
