control cable to intake manifold. On all models, install NEW gasket and EGR valve with union nut and 2
nuts. Install vacuum modulator to clamp on intake manifold. Connect vacuum hoses to EGR VSV.
Connect fuel inlet hose to fuel filter
14. Connect vacuum sensor hose to gas filter, and brake booster vacuum hose to intake manifold. Install
throttle body. Install NEW "O" ring on coolant by-pass pipe, and NEW gasket on water pump cover
before installing coolant by-pass pipe. Apply soapy water solution to "O" ring before installing coolant
by-pass pipe. Install by-pass pipe.
15. Install NEW gasket and water outlet. Connect radiator, water by-pass and heater water hoses. Connect
ECT sensor and sender gauge connectors. Connect oil pressure switch.
16. Install ignition coils, manifold stay and spark plug wires. Connect wire clamp to manifold stay. Connect
spark plug wires to spark plugs and clamps on cylinder head cover. Connect ignition coil connectors.
17. Install 2 heat insulators. Install lower heat insulator. On California models, install A/F sensor to exhaust
manifold. All others, install oxygen sensor (bank 1 sensor 1) to exhaust manifold.
18. Using a new gasket, install exhaust manifold and heat insulator assembly. Install right-side exhaust
manifolds stay (California). Install left-side exhaust manifold stay. Install upper manifold heat insulator.
Connect A/F sensor connectors (California), or Oxygen sensor (bank 1 sensor 1).
19. Use NEW gasket and NEW nuts when installing front exhaust pipe. Ensure all bolts/nuts are loosely
installed on front exhaust pipe before tightening to specification. See TORQUE SPECIFICATIONS

20. Install generator and air cleaner and cap. Connect accelerator cable to throttle body and cable bracket. On
A/T models, connect throttle cable to throttle body and cable bracket. On all models, start engine and
check for leaks. Recheck engine coolant and oil level. Install right-side engine undercover.
CRANKSHAFT FRONT SEAL
Removal & Installation (Oil Pump Installed)
1. Remove timing belt and crankshaft sprocket. See TIMING BELT . Using a knife, cut lip from seal. Pry
seal from oil pump housing. DO NOT damage sealing surfaces.
2. To install, apply grease to lip of new seal. Using hammer and Seal Installer (SST 09226-10010), install
seal until seal surface is even with oil pump housing. To install remaining components, reverse removal
procedure.
Removal & Installation (Oil Pump Removed)
Using hammer and drift, remove seal from oil pump housing. To install, use hammer and Seal Installer (SST
09226-10010). Install seal until seal surface is even with oil pump housing. Apply grease to lip of new seal.
TIMING BELT
CAUTION: If reusing timing belt, mark direction of timing belt rotation, and place
reference mark on timing belt at camshaft sprocket for reassembly
reference. Also, place reference mark on timing belt at upper edge of No. 1
timing belt cover. DO NOT bend, twist or turn timing belt inside-out. DO
