Engine Disassembly/Assembly: Notes

CAUTION:
  • When the transaxle is installed, do not suspend the engine. Otherwise, the SST  installation area of the cylinder head may be damaged due to excess weight. Only suspend the engine after separating the engine and transaxle.
  • Applying excessive force (force of 100 N {10.2 kgf, 22.5 lbf} or more) to the electric variable valve timing motor/driver may cause a malfunction. When servicing, be careful not to apply excessive force to the electric variable valve timing motor/driver using other parts or tools.
  1. To enable to install the SST  , disconnect the clip shown in the figure and set the wiring harness aside.

    Tightening torque 

    • 38-51 N.m {3.9-5.2 kgf.m, 29-37 ft.lbf}
  3. Engage the hooks of the SST (49 L017 5A0)  to the SST (49 UN30 3050)  .
