Insulator (rear) removal note
NOTE:
-
The insulator (rear) is installed using rivets.
1. Remove the rivets as shown in the figure.
a. Push out the mandrel using a hammer and punch ( 2???2.8 mm {0.08???0.11 in} diameter).
b. Remove the flange using a drill ( 5 mm {0.2 in} drill bit).
Seal Ring Removal Note
1. Remove the seal ring using a flathead screwdriver being careful not to damage the pipe.
Exhaust Manifold Insulator Removal Note
CAUTION:
-
Since the quality of the material of exhaust manifold insulator is aluminum material, it is very easy to change. Therefore, it takes care that there is no modification of exhaust manifold insulator at the time of attachment for dealing with it.
Exhaust Manifold Removal Note
1. Remove the bolt shown in the figure and set the ground cable aside.
2. Remove the front suspension tower bar. (With front suspension tower bar) (See FRONT SUSPENSION TOWER BAR REMOVAL/INSTALLATION.)
3. Remove the front wheels and tires. (See GENERAL PROCEDURES (SUSPENSION).)
4. Remove the fasteners shown in the figure and slightly bend back the front mudguard No.2.

-
33???53 N·m {3.4???5.4 kgf·m, 25???39 ft·lbf}
12. Install the SST (49 E017 5A0) to the SST (49 UN30 3050) and engine hanger, then set them as shown in the figure.
NOTE:
-
Use 2 shafts as shown in the figure to lift up the engine on the left and right sides equally.
13. Rotate the shaft of the SST (49 E017 5A0) to support the engine.
14. Lift up the engine until the engine mount rubber is slightly raised above the front crossmember and verify again that the engine is securely hung.
15. Push the position shown in the figure and move the engine toward the left side of the vehicle.
NOTE:
-
The exhaust manifold can be removed by securing a space for removal. Therefore, the procedure is divided into one person moving the engine and one person removing the exhaust manifold.
16. Remove the exhaust manifold.
Exhaust Manifold Installation Note
1. Push the position shown in the figure and move the engine toward the left side of the vehicle.
NOTE:
-
The exhaust manifold can be installed by securing a space for installation. Therefore, the procedure is divided into one person moving the engine and one person installing the exhaust manifold.
2. Install the exhaust manifold.
3. Turn a shaft of SST (49 E017 5A0) and lower engine until engine mount rubber performs a sitting lightly in front crossmember.
4. Temporarily tighten the bolt as shown in the figure.

Exhaust Manifold Insulator Installation Note
CAUTION:
-
Since the quality of the material of exhaust manifold insulator is aluminum material, it is very easy to change. Therefore, it takes care that there is no modification of exhaust manifold insulator at the time of attachment for dealing with it.

Flange Surface Installation Note
CAUTION:
-
If the TWC or main silencer is reused, sand the flange surface and remove sanding residue, accumulated matter, and friction marks before installing the seal ring.
-
If this work is not performed, the seal ring may not be installed correctly. When sanding the flange surface, be careful not to damage the surface.
-
When sanding the flange surface, sanding residue may get into the removed part or pipe resulting in deterioration or damage to the part. When sanding, make sure parts are protected from sanding residue or foreign matter penetration.
1. Sand the surface shown in the figure using sandpaper and remove sanding residue, accumulated matter, and friction marks.
2. Degrease the sanded surface.
Seal Ring Installation Note
CAUTION:
-
If the TWC or main silencer is reused, sand the flange surface and remove sanding residue, accumulated matter, and friction marks before installing the seal ring. If this work is not performed, the seal ring may not be installed correctly.
-
If installation is performed without using the SST, the seal ring will be damaged and deformed, resulting in an incorrect installation. Always use the SST to install the seal ring.
1. Temporarily install the seal ring to the pipe so that the seal ring is even with the flange.
2. Install the SST to the seal ring so that the SST is even with the flange.
3. Press in the seal ring by tapping the SST using a plastic hammer until the seal ring contacts the flange.
