NOTE

:
Explained here is how to disassemble with engine stand supporting transaxle surface. When using different type of engine stand, note with difference in steps and etc.

1. Remove the engine and the transaxle assembly from the vehicle, and separate the transaxle from the engine. Refer to EM-215, "Exploded View".

2. Install engine to engine stand with the following procedure: a. Remove flywheel or drive plate.

• Secure flywheel (1) with a stopper plate [SST: KV11105210] (A), and remove mounting bolts (M/T models).

• Secure driveplate (1) with a stopper plate [SST: KV11105210] (A), and remove mounting bolts (CVT models).

CAUTION:
• Never disassemble them.

• Never place them with signal plate facing down.

• When handling signal plate, take care not to damage or scratch them.

• Handle signal plate in a manner that prevents them from becoming magnetized.

b. Remove pilot converter (1) from the rear end of the crankshaft.

Use a pilot bush puller [SST: ST16610000] (A), if necessary.

c. Lift the engine with a hoist to install it onto widely use engine stand.

CAUTION

:
• Use the engine stand that has a load capacity [approximately 150 kg (331 lb) or more] large enough for supporting the engine weight.

• If the load capacity of stand is not adequate, remove the following parts beforehand to reduce the potential risk of overturning stand.

- Intake manifold: Refer to EM-163, "Exploded View".

- Exhaust manifold: Refer to EM-166, "Removal and Installation".

- Rocker cover: Refer to EM-178, "Exploded View".

NOTE

:
The figure shows an example of widely used engine stand (A) that can support mating surface of transaxle with flywheel removed.

CAUTION:
Before removing the hanging chains, check the engine stand is stable and there is no risk of overturning.

3. Drain engine oil. Refer to LU-26, "Draining".

CAUTION:
Be sure to clean drain plug and install with new drain plug washer.

4. Drain engine coolant by removing water drain plug (1) from inside of the engine.

: Engine front

Tightening torque : Refer to EM-227, "Exploded View".

Use Genuine Liquid Gasket or equivalent.
