 If grommet at bottom of air cleaner case comes off together with air
cleaner case, fix it to vehicle before installation.
 Look at internal bottom face through power duct hole, and position air cleaner case with resonator upper end circle and air cleaner
case round hole aligned. Then push air cleaner case straight
down.
 At this time, check by hand if protrusion at bottom of air cleaner
case has been inserted into grommet on vehicle side.

 Before installing a new air fuel
ratio sensor 1 and new heated oxygen sensor 2, clean exhaust sys-
tem 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 ra tio sensor 1 and heated oxygen sen sor 2. Doing so may cause damage
to air fuel ratio sensor 1 and heated oxygen sensor 2, resulting in the “MIL” coming on.
