ENGINE REMOVAL/INSTALLATION


BHE011002000W04

Warning
• Fuel vapour is hazardous. It can very easily ignite, causing serious injury and damage. Always keep sparks and flames away from fuel.
• Fuel line spills and leakage from the pressurized fuel system are dangerous. Fuel can ignite and cause serious injury or death and damage. Fuel can also irritate skin and eyes. To prevent this, always complete the "Fuel Line Safety Procedure" when servicing the fuel system. (See BEFORE REPAIR PROCEDURE.)
• After disconnecting the steering shaft joint, always set the EPS system to the neutral position to prevent system malfunction. (See EPS SYSTEM NEUTRAL POSITION SETTING.)
Caution
• To allow the PCM to identify that the engine has been replaced, pump the brake pedal 20 times within 8 s after the ignition switch is turn to the ON position (engine off).
Note
• Remove the engine, transmission, and crossmember component as a single unit downward of the vehicle.

1. Remove the following parts:

(1) The front wheel and tires (SeeGENERAL PROCEDURES (SUSPENSION)
(2) The engine cover (SeeENGINE COVER REMOVAL/INSTALLATION.)
(3) The front suspension tower bar (SeeFRONT SUSPENSION TOWER BAR REMOVAL/INSTALLATION.)
(4) The battery cover, battery, battery box and battery tray (SeeBATTERY REMOVAL/INSTALLATION.)
(5) The air cleaner, intake-air duct and air cleaner insulator (SeeINTAKE-AIR SYSTEM REMOVAL/INSTALLATION.)
(6) The PCM (See PCM REMOVAL/INSTALLATION.)
(7) The secondary air injection pump. (See SECONDARY AIR INJECTION (AIR) PUMP REMOVAL/INSTALLATION.)

2. Drain the engine coolant. (SeeENGINE COOLANT REPLACEMENT.)

3. Disconnect the brake vacuum hose.

4. Disconnect the quick release connector going to the charcoal canister from the engine room side. (See QUICK RELEASE CONNECTOR REMOVAL/INSTALLATION.)
