Note. Please read the entire paragraph before you begin. The manufacturer recommends that the entire powertrain assembly be removed from the top of the engine compartment and then separate the transmission from the engine on the floor. This is true for all V-engine models, as well as 4-cylinder models with manual transmission. On models with a 4-cylinder engine and automatic transmission, the engine can be removed while leaving the transmission in the vehicle (jacking her up).
Removing
Attention! All models of vehicles described in this manual are equipped with an airbag. The pillow is cocked and can work at any time in the presence of voltage in the on-board network. To prevent accidental airbag deployment (and possible injury), whenever you have to work near the cushion, turn the ignition key to the off position and disconnect the negative battery terminal. After disconnecting the battery, wait at least two minutes before continuing to work (the security system is equipped with a backup power source - a capacitor, which must have time to discharge). For more information see chapter 12.
Attention! Gasoline is highly flammable, so take extra care when working anywhere in the fuel system. Do not smoke in the work area, do not use an open flame with an unprotected portable lamp. If the garage has gas appliances with an on-duty wick (like water heaters and dryers), turn them off. Gasoline is also a carcinogen. For this reason, protect your hands when handling fuel with plastic gloves. Clean up spilled gasoline immediately and wash it off with soap and water. Do not store rags soaked in gasoline where they can ignite. The fuel system is always pressurized, so depressurize the fuel line before disconnecting it (see chapter 4). Keep a carbon dioxide fire extinguisher handy and familiarize yourself with how to use it beforehand.
1. Relieve pressure in the fuel system (see chapter 4).
2. Disconnect the negative cable from the battery.
Caution: If your car's audio system is equipped with an anti-theft protection, make sure you know the unlock code before disconnecting the battery.
3. Remove the battery and its tray.
4. Cover the front fenders of the car with pieces of cloth to sew up the paint, remove the hood (see chapter 11).
5. Remove the air cleaner (see chapter 4). Remove the mudguard from under the engine.
6. Raise the vehicle and secure it on stands. Drain coolant, engine oil and remove drive belts (see chapter 1).
7. Tag and disconnect all water and vacuum hoses, electrical wiring connectors. earth busbars and fuel pipelines. For marking, you can use quick-drying nitro paint or pieces of adhesive plaster (pic. 7.7). It does not hurt to take a preliminary photograph or sketch the location of hoses, wires, brackets, etc.
8. Remove the cooling fan and radiator (see chapter 3). Remove the upper and lower radiator hoses. Disconnect the heater hoses from the engine.
9. Relieve residual pressure in the fuel system by unscrewing the tank cap, then disconnect the fuel pipes connecting the engine to the chassis (see chapter 4). Plug or cover all connection openings.
10. On a 4-cylinder engine, remove the intake manifold support bracket.
11. Remove the starter (see chapter 5).
12. Remove the crankshaft pulley (see chapters 2A or 2B).
13. On a 4-cylinder engine, remove the alternator (see chapter 5).
14. Disconnect the throttle actuator and speed control cable from the engine (if he is).
15. Disconnect the engine wiring connectors, unhook the wiring harnesses (pic. 7 15.a-c). Move the wiring away from the engine.
16. On vehicles equipped with power steering, remove the power steering pump. If space permits, mount the pump somewhere on the side without disconnecting its hoses. If necessary, remove the pump completely (see chapter 10).
17. On models with air conditioning, unscrew the compressor mounting bolts and secure it to the side. Do not disconnect refrigerant hoses.
18. Disconnect the electrical connector from the oxygen sensor. Disconnect the exhaust pipe and manifolds (see chapter 4). Remove the cross member and lower the downpipe.
19. On a V-shaped engine with an oil heat exchanger, unscrew the oil filter, disconnect the cooling system hoses and remove the heat exchanger (see chapter 3).
20. Attach slings to engine lashing eyes (pic. 7.20). Install the lift and attach the slings to it Take up the slack and lightly tighten the slings.
21. On a model with a 4-cylinder engine and automatic transmission, remove the drive shaft from the passenger side (see chapter 8). Remove the lower transmission case cover under the torque converter. Release the torque converter from the faceplate (see chapter 7) and push the torque converter into the transmission case.
22. On all V-engine and 4-cylinder models with manual transmission, the power unit is removed from the vehicle assembly. Disconnect all drives and electrical connectors from the transmission (see chapter 7). Remove both drive shafts (see chapter 8).
23. Remove the bolts / nuts securing the front and rear supports of the power unit to the chassis and the lower support to the subframe (see chapters 2A or 2B).
24. On a model with a 4-cylinder engine and automatic transmission, remove the bolts connecting the transmission to the engine and take the transmission away from the engine. The torque converter must remain in the transmission. Support the transmission with a jack by placing a wooden block on its head so as not to damage the transmission case. On other models, the transmission is removed along with the engine and the bolts securing the transmission to the engine are not yet unscrewed.
25. Make sure again that. that nothing but the right and left supports connects the engine with the car.
26. Remove the right and left support bolts. Attention: Do not put your hands under the power unit while it is supported only by the lifting device.
27. Slowly lift the power pack out of the engine compartment. You may need to use a lever to release the supports from the brackets.
28. Move the power unit behind i ipeneriu car and carefully lower it onto the pop or remove the flywheel (faceplate) and install the engine on the stand.
Note. On automatic transmission models, mark the faceplate adapters and store them with the faceplate.
Installation
29. Check the condition of the power block supports. If they are worn or damaged, replace them.
30. On a model equipped with a manual transmission, check the clutch parts (see chapter 8). On automatic transmission models, check the condition of the torque converter seal and bearings.
31. On a manual transmission model, lubricate the clutch release bearing with grease. On an automatic transmission model, lubricate the toe of the torque converter with grease.
32. Carefully attach the transmission to the engine as described in chapter 7.
Warning. Do not attempt to pull the transmission to the engine by tightening the bolts. This can result in serious damage to expensive body parts.
33. Screw in bolts of fastening of transmission to the engine and reliably tighten them.
34. Connect a lift to the power block and carefully lower the block into the engine compartment.
Note. If the engine was removed without the transmission and the transmission remains in the vehicle, lower the engine into the engine compartment and have an assistant align the transmission with the engine. This will require a slight turn of the engine or transmission. The alignment of the torque converter with the faceplate is described in chapter 7.
35. Screw in the support bolts and tighten them securely.
36. Installing the remaining parts and assemblies in the reverse order of removal.
37. Fill coolant, engine oil, transmission fluid and power steering system (see chapter 1).
38. Start the engine and check for proper operation and no leaks. Stop the engine and check the fluid levels again.
