In this step, loosen bolts in reverse order of that indicated.
d. Tighten all bolts.
e. Turn all bolts 75 degrees clockwise (angle tightening).
CAUTION:
Check and confirm the tightening angle by using the angle
wrench [SST: KV10112100] (A) or protractor. Avoid judg-
ment by visual inspection without the tool.
f. Turn all bolts 75 degrees clockwise again (angle tightening).

INSPECTION AFTER INSTALLATION
Inspection for Leaks
 Before starting engine, check oil/fluid levels including engine coolant and engine oil. If less than required
quantity, fill to the specified level. Refer to MA-19, "
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.
- Start engine. With engine speed increased, check again for fuel leakage at connection points.
 Run engine to check for unusual noise and vibration.
 Warm up engine thoroughly to make sure there is no leakage of fuel, exhaust gases, or any oil/fluids includ-
ing engine oil and engine coolant.
 Bleed air from lines and hoses of applicable lines, such as in cooling system.
 After cooling down engine, again check oil/fluid levels including engine oil and engine coolant. Refill to the
specified level, if necessary.
Summary of the inspection items:
*: Transmission/transaxle/CVT fluid, power steering fluid, brake fluid, etc.
