| Removal |
|
|
|
| 1. | Shut off the High Voltage circuit. (Refer to General Information - "High Voltage Shutoff Procedure") |
| 2. | Disconnect the battery negative terminal. |
| 3. | Loosen the drain plug, and drain the engine oil. Remove the oil filter cap to help drain the engine oil faster. (Refer to Lubrication System - "Engine Oil") |
| 4. | Remove the air cleaner assembly. (Refer to Intake And Exhaust System - "Air Cleaner") |
| 5. | Remove the RH front wheel. (Refer to Suspension System - "Wheel") |
| 6. | Remove the engine room under cover. (Refer to Engine And Transaxle Assembly - "Engine Room Under Cover") |
| 7. | Remove the drive belt. (Refer to Timing System - "Drive Belt") |
| 8. | Remove the engine mounting support bracket. (Refer to Engine And Transaxle Assembly - "Engine Mounting") |
| 9. | Remove the engine support bracket.
|
| 10. | Remove the drive belt tensioner. (Refer to Timing System - "Drive Belt Tensioner") |
| 11. | Remove the idler. (Refer to Timing System - "Idler") |
| 12. | Remove the crankshaft damper pulley. (Refer to Timing System - "Crankshaft Damper Pulley") |
| 13. | Remove the water pump pulley. (Refer to Cooling System - "Water Pump") |
| 14. | Remove the cylinder head cover. (Refer to Cylinder Head Assembly - "Cylinder Head Cover") |
| 15. | Remove the oil control solenoid (OCS) (A) and then remove the timing chain cover (B).
|
| Installation |
| 1. | Install the timing chain cover.
|
| 2. | Install the oil control solenoid (OCS) (A).
|
| 3. | Replace the front oil seal if necessary. (Refer to Timing System - "Front Oil Seal") |
| 4. | Install the other parts reverse order of removal. |
| 5. | Connect the High Voltage circuit. (Refer to General Information - "High Voltage Shutoff Procedure") |
| 6. | Add all the necessary fluids and check for leaks. Connect GDS. Check for codes, note, and clear. Recheck.
