Always use the support point specified for lifting.
Use either 2-pole lift type or separate type lift as best you can. If board-on type is used for
unavoidable reasons, support at the rear axle jacking point with transmission jack or similar tool
before starting work, in preparation for the backward shift of center of gravity.
For supporting points for lifting and jacking point at rear axle, refer to GI-42, "Garage Jack and
Safety Stand and 2-Pole Lift" .
REMOVAL
Outline
At first, remove engine, transmission assembly with front suspension member from vehicle downward. Then
separate engine from transmission.
Preparation
1. Release fuel pressure. Refer to EC-809, "FUEL PRESSURE RELEASE" .
2. Drain engine coolant from radiator. Refer to CO-40, "

CAUTION:
Perform this step when engine is cold.
Do not spill engine coolant on drive belts.
3. Disconnect both battery cables. Refer to SC-4, "
BATTERY" .
4. Remove crankshaft position sensor (POS) from transmission.
CAUTION:
Handle carefully to avoid dropping and shocks.
Do not disassemble.
Do not allow metal powder to adhere to magnetic part at sensor tip.
Do not place sensors in a location where they are exposed to magnetism.
5. Remove the following parts:

2. Disconnect wire bonding from exhaust manifold cover to vehicle.
3. Disconnect vacuum hose between vehicle and engine and set it aside.
4. Discharge refrigerant from A/C circuit. Refer to ATC-151, "
REFRIGERANT LINES" .
5. Remove A/C piping from A/C compressor, and temporarily fasten it on vehicle with a rope. Refer to AT C -
151, "REFRIGERANT LINES" .
Engine Room RH
1. Disconnect fuel feed hose and EVAP hose. Refer to EM-193, "FUEL INJECTOR AND FUEL TUBE" .

Fit plugs onto disconnected hose to prevent fuel leak.
2. Disconnect ground cable (between vehicle and right bank cylinder head).
3. Disconnect vacuum hose between vehicle and engine and set it aside.
4. Disconnect reservoir tank of power steering oil pump from engine, and move it aside for easier work.
CAUTION:
When temporarily securing, keep reservoir tank upright to avoid a fluid leak.
Ve h i c le i n s i d e
Follow procedure below to disconnect engine room harness connectors at passenger room side, and tempo-
rarily secure them on engine.
1. Remove passenger-side kicking plate, dash side finisher, and glove box. Refer to EI-37, "
BODY SIDE
TRIM" and IP-10, "INSTRUMENT PANEL ASSEMBLY" .

DISASSEMBLY
NOTE:
Explained here is how to disassemble with engine stand supporting transmission surface. When using differ-
ent type of engine stand, note with difference in steps and etc.
1. Remove engine assembly from vehicle, and separate front suspension member, transmission from
engine. Refer to EM-244, "
ENGINE ASSEMBLY" .
2. Remove the parts that may restrict installation of engine to widely use engine stand.
NOTE:
The procedure is described assuming that you use widely use engine holding the surface, to which trans-
mission is installed.
a. Remove drive plate.
Holding ring gear with ring gear stopper (SST).
Loosen mounting bolts diagonally order.
CAUTION:
Do not disassemble drive plate.
Do not place drive plate with signal plate facing down.
When handling signal plate, take care not to damage or
scratch it.
Handle signal plate in a manner that prevents it from
becoming magnetized.
b. Remove rear plate.
3. Lift engine with hoist to install it onto widely use engine stand.
CAUTION:
Use engine stand that has a load capacity [approximately 240kg (529 lb) or more] large enough for
supporting the engine weight.
If the load capacity of stand is not adequate, remove the following parts beforehand to reduce the
potential risk of overturning stand.
–Intake manifolds (upper and lower); Refer to EM-179, "INTAKE MANIFOLD" .

OIL PRESSURE CHECK
WAR NING :
Be careful not to get burn yourself, as engine oil may be hot.
Oil pressure check should be done in “Parking position”.
1. Check the engine oil level. Refer to LU-7, "
ENGINE OIL LEVEL" .
2. Remove front engine undercover with power tool.
3. Disconnect harness connector at oil pressure switch, and
remove oil pressure switch using deep socket (commercial ser-
vice tool).
CAUTION:
Do not drop or shock oil pressure switch.
Remove the oil pressure switch using a 26 mm (1.02 in) box
wrench. (AWD models)
4. Install the oil pressure gauge (SST) and hose (SST).
5. Start the engine and warm it up to normal operating temperature.
6. Check the engine oil pressure with engine running under no-load.
NOTE:
When the engine oil temperature is low, the engine oil pressure becomes high.
Engine oil pressure [Engine oil temperature at 80
C (176 F)]
If difference is extreme, check engine oil passage and oil pump for engine oil leaks.
7. After the inspections, install oil pressure switch as follows:
