REMOVAL

WARNING:

Do not remove the radiator cap when the engine is hot. Serious burns could occur from high-pressure
engine coolant escaping from the radiator. Wrap a thick cloth around the cap. Slowly push down and
turn it a quarter turn to allow built-up pressure to escape. Carefully remove the cap by pushing it down
and turning it all the way.

CAUTION:

Perform these steps after the engine coolant temperature has cooled sufficiently.
NOTE:
When removing components such as hoses, tubes/lines, etc., cap or plug openings to prevent fluid from spill-
ing.

Remove the front bumper. Refer to

EXT-19, "Removal and Installation"

Remove the engine undercover.

CAUTION:

Rotate crankshaft clockwise (as viewed from the crankshaft pulley side).

Remove the bolts that fasten the transaxle assembly and engine assembly.

Separate the engine from the transaxle assembly.
NOTE:
Using paint, put matching marks on the drive plate and torque converter when removing the torque con-
verter to drive plate nuts.

Remove following parts from transaxle assembly.
• Air breather hose (Refer to

• Charging pipe and O-ring

INSTALLATION

Note the followings and installation is in the reverse order of removal.
NOTE:
Write down the serial number of the new transaxle assembly.

CAUTION:

• When replacing an engine or transaxle you must make sure any dowels are installed correctly during

re-assembly

• Improper alignment caused by missing dowels may cause vibration, oil leaks or breakage of drive

train components.

• Never reuse O-rings or copper sealing washers.
• When turning crankshaft, turn it clockwise as viewed from the front of the engine.
• When tightening the nuts for the torque converter while securing the crankshaft pulley bolt, be sure

to confirm the tightening torque of the crankshaft pulley bolt. Refer to

EM-413, "Removal and Instal-

lation"

• After converter is installed to drive plate, rotate crankshaft several turns to check that CVT rotates

freely without binding.

• When installing the CVT to the engine, align the matching mark on the drive plate with the matching

mark on the torque converter.

• When installing the drive plate to torque converter nuts, tighten them temporarily. then tighten the nuts to the

specified torque.

• Install the transaxle assembly and engine assembly mounting bolts according to the following standards.
