REMOVAL SERVICE POINTS
<<A>> CRANK ANGLE SENSOR CONNECTOR REMOVAL
   
 CAUTION
 Do not remove the tape securing the crank angle sensor connector and control wiring harness, since the control wiring harness may contact the power steering oil pump pulley.
<<B>> DRIVE BELT REMOVAL
The following operations will be needed due to the introduction of the serpentine drive system with the drive belt auto-tensioner.
       
    1. Securely insert the spindle handle or ratchet handle with a 12.7 mm insertion angle into the jig hole of the auto-tensioner.
    1. Rotate the auto-tensioner anti-clockwise and align hole A with hole B.
       CAUTION
       To reuse the drive belt, draw an arrow indicating the rotating direction (clockwise) on the back of the belt using chalk, etc.
       
    1. Insert an L-shaped hexagon wrench, etc. into the hole to fix and then remove the drive belt.
    <<C>> A/C COMPRESSOR AND CLUTCH ASSEMBLY/POWER STEERING OIL PUMP ASSEMBLY REMOVAL
    With the hose installed, remove the A/C compressor and clutch assembly, and power steering oil pump assembly from the bracket.
    NOTE: Secure the removed A/C compressor and clutch assembly, and power steering oil pump assembly with cord or rope at a position where they will not interfere with the removal of the engine assembly.

            1. Hold the engine assembly with a chain block, etc.
            1. Place a garage jack against the engine oil pan with a piece of wood in between so that the weight of the engine assembly is no longer being applied to the engine mounting insulator.
            1. Loosen the engine mounting insulator mounting nuts and bolt, and remove the engine mounting insulator.
            <<F>> ENGINE ASSEMBLY REMOVAL
            After checking that all cables, hoses and wiring harness connectors and so on are disconnected from the engine, lift the chain block slowly to remove the engine assembly upward from the engine compartment.

                 CAUTION
                 Do not tighten the self-locking nuts while the engine is hot.
                Tighten the self-locking nuts to the specified torque while the engine is cold.
                Tightening torque: 45 ± 5 N·m
                >>D<< TRANSMISSION ASSEMBLY INSTALLATION
                1. Install the transmission assembly [Refer to GROUP 23A, Transmission Assembly <4G63> , Refer to GROUP 23A, Transmission Assembly <4G64> .]

                  >>E<< O-RING/FUEL HIGH-PRESSURE HOSE INSTALLATION
                     CAUTION
                     Do not let any engine oil get into the delivery pipe.
                  1. Apply a small amount of new engine oil to the O-ring.
                  1. Turning the fuel high-pressure hose to the right and left, install it to the delivery pipe, while being careful not to damage the O-ring. After installing, check that the hose turns smoothly.
                  1. If the hose does not turn smoothly, the O-ring is probably being clamped. Disconnect the fuel high-pressure hose and check the O-ring for damage. After this, re-insert it to the delivery pipe and check that the hose turns smoothly.
                  1. Tighten the fuel high pressure hose mounting bolts to the specified torque.
                    2. Tightening torque: 5.0 ± 1.0 N·m
