< REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION >
ENGINE ASSEMBLY
a. Before removing the drive plate, put a match mark (A) on thecrankshaft and drive plate for alignment during installation.
b. Remove the drive plate. • Holding the crankshaft pulley bolt, lock the crankshaft to remove the drive plate bolts.
• Loosen the bolts diagonally.
CAUTION:
• Be careful not to damage the drive plate. Especiallyavoid deforming and damaging of the signal plate teeth
(circumference position).
• Place the drive plate with th e signal plate surface facing
other than downward.
• Keep magnetic materials away from the signal plate.
CAUTION:
Use an engine stand that has a load capacity [a pproximately 240kg (529 lb) or more] large enough
for supporting the engine weight.
• If the load capacity of the stand is not adeq uate, remove the following parts beforehand to
reduce the potential risk of overturning the stand.
- Remove the fuel tube and fuel injector assembly. Refer to EM-40, "
Removal and Installation".
- Remove the intake manifold. Refer to EM-26, "
Removal and Installation".
- Remove the ignition coil. Refer to EM-37, "
Removal and Installation".
- Remove the rocker cover. Refer to EM-38, "
Removal and Installation".
- Other removable brackets.
CAUTION:
Before removing the hanging chains, make sure th e engine stand is stable and there is no risk of
overturning.
31. Remove the generator. Refer to CHG-22, "
Removal and Installation".
32. Remove the engine mounting insulator and bracket using power tool.
INSTALLATION
Installation is in the reverse order of removal.
CAUTION:
• When replacing an engine or transmission you mu st make sure the dowels are installed correctly
during re-assembly.
• Improper alignment caused by mi ssing dowels may cause vibration, oil leaks or breakage of driv-
etrain components.
INSPECTION AFTER INSTALLATION
• Before starting engine, check oil/fluid levels incl uding engine coolant and engine oil. If less than required
quantity, fill to the specified level. Refer to MA-12, "
Fluids and Lubricants".
• Use procedure below to check for fuel leakage.
• Turn ignition switch ON (with engine stopped). With fuel pressure applied to fuel piping, check for fuel leak- age at connection points.

5. Install Tools.
6. Start the engine and warm it up to normal operating temperature.
7. Check the engine oil pressure with engine running under no-load.
Engine oil pressure [Engine oil temperature at 80
°C (175 °F)]
Unit: kPa (kg/cm2, psi)
CAUTION:
If the difference is extreme, check the oil passages and oil pump for leaks and blockages.
8. After the inspections, install oil pressure switch as follows:
a. Remove old liquid gasket adhering to oil pressure switch and engine.
b. Apply liquid gasket and tighten oil pressure switch to the specification. Use Genuine RTV Silicone Seal ant or equivalent. Refer to GI-15, "
Recommended Chemical Prod-
ucts and Sealants".
c. After warming up engine, make sure there is no leakage of engine oil with engine running.
Changing Engine OilINFOID:0000000001538845
WARNING:
• Be careful not to burn yourself, as the engine oil is hot.
• Prolonged and repeated contact with used engine oil may cause skin cancer. Try to avoid direct skin contact with used
engine oil. If skin contact is made, wash thoroughly with soap
or hand cleaner as soon as possible.
1. Remove engine front undercover using power tool.
2. Warm up engine, and check for oil leakage from engine compo- nents. Refer to LU-8, "
Inspection".
3. Stop engine and wait for 10 minutes.
4. Loosen oil filler cap, then remove drain plug.
5. Drain engine oil.
6. Install drain plug with new washer. CAUTION:
• Be sure to clean drain plug and install with new washer.
7. Refill with new engine oil. Refer to MA-12, "
Fluids and Lubricants".
