5. Install the quick connector cap on the quick connector joint (on
engine side only).
6. Install the fuel hose and tube to hose clamps.
7. Refill the engine coolant. Refer to MA-13, "
REFILLING ENGINE
COOLANT" .
INSPECTION AFTER INSTALLATION

After installing fuel tubes, make sure there is no fuel leakage at connections in the following steps.
–Apply fuel pressure to fuel lines with turning ignition switch ON (with engine stopped). Then check for
fuel leaks at connections.
–Start the engine and rev it up and check for fuel leaks at connections.

Perform procedures for “Throttle Valve Closed Position Learning” after finishing repairs. Refer to EC-44,
"Throttle Valve Closed Position Learning" .

If electric throttle control actuator is replaced, perform procedures for “Idle Air Volume Learning” after fin-
ishing repairs. Refer to EC-44, "
Idle Air Volume Learning" .

c. Remove the air fuel ratio A/F sensors from both left and right
exhaust manifolds using Tool.
CAUTION:

Be careful not to damage the air fuel ratio A/F sensors

Discard any air fuel ratio A/F sensor which has been
dropped from a height of more than 0.5m (19.7 in) onto a
hard surface such as a concrete floor. Replace it with a
new one.
7. Remove the front cross bar.
8. Remove the exhaust manifold (left bank) using the following
steps.
a. Remove the exhaust front tube using power tool. Refer to EX-3,
"Removal and Installation" .
b. Remove the exhaust manifold cover.
c. Loosen the nuts in reverse order shown using power tool.
d. Remove the exhaust studs from positions 2, 4, 6, 8 and remove
the left exhaust manifold.
9. Remove the exhaust manifold (right bank) using the following
steps.
a. Remove the exhaust front tube using power tool. Refer to EX-3,
"Removal and Installation" .

AND OIL STRAINER" .
c. Remove the exhaust manifold cover.
d. Loosen the nuts in reverse order shown using power tool.
e. Remove the exhaust studs from positions 2, 4, 6, 8 and remove the right exhaust manifold.
INSPECTION AFTER REMOVAL
Surface Distortion

Use a reliable straightedge and feeler gauge to check the flat-
ness of each exhaust manifold flange surface.

If flatness exceeds the limit, replace the exhaust manifold.
INSTALLATION
Installation is in the reverse order of removal.

Install a new exhaust manifold gasket with the top of the triangu-
lar up mark on it facing up and its coated face (gray side) toward
the exhaust manifold side.Tool number : — (J-44626)

Tighten the exhaust manifold nuts in the numerical order shown.
Then recheck the torque of the nuts.

Before installing new air fuel ration A/F sensors, clean the exhaust system threads using Tool and apply
anti-seize lubricant.
CAUTION:

Do not over tighten the air fuel ratio A/F sensors. Doing so may cause damage to the sensor,
resulting in the MIL coming on.
