a) Disconnect transmission shift linkage.
b) Disconnect transmission electrical connectors.
21. Disconnect power steering hoses from radiator.
22. Disconnect radiator fan electrical connector and remove cooling module assembly.
23. Hoist vehicle and remove front wheels.
24. Remove right inner splash shield.
25. Remove axle shafts.
26. Remove accessory drive belts.
27. Remove generator and support brackets.
28. Remove charge air cooler hoses (Fig. 7).
29. Drain engine oil.
30. Disconnect the downstream oxygen sensor connector.
31. Disconnect exhaust system from manifold (Fig. 8).
32. Disconnect both power steering hoses from steering gear (Fig. 9).
33. Remove upper and lower heat shields, elbow support bracket, turbocharger support bracket, and elbow (Fig. 10).
34. Remove structural collar.
35. Mark for orientation and remove drive plate to clutch module bolts.
36. Remove lower engine torque strut.
37. Lower vehicle and remove A/C compressor.
38. Disconnect power steering lines from power steering pump.
39. Remove power steering pump.
40. Raise vehicle enough to allow engine dolly, cradle, and posts, (Special Tools 6135, 6710, and 6848) to be installed under vehicle. For Special Tool identification (Refer to - ENGINE - SPECIAL TOOLS).
41. Loosen engine support posts to allow movement for positioning onto engine locating holes and flange on the engine bedplate. Lower vehicle and position cradle until the engine is resting on support posts (Fig. 13). Tighten mounts to cradle frame. This will keep support posts from moving when removing or installing engine and transmission.
42. Install safety straps around the engine to cradle (Fig. 13). Tighten straps and lock them into position.
WARNING: Safety straps MUST be used.
43. Raise vehicle enough to determine if straps are secure enough to hold cradle assembly to engine.
44. Lower vehicle so weight of the engine and transmission ONLY is on the cradle assembly.
45. Remove the upper engine torque strut.
46. Remove right mount through bolt (Fig. 11) and left mount attaching bolts (Fig. 12).
47. Raise vehicle slowly until engine/transaxle assembly clears engine compartment. It may be necessary to move the engine/transmission assembly with the cradle to allow for removal around body flanges.
INSTALLATION - ENGINE ASSEMBLY
1. Position engine and transmission assembly under vehicle and slowly lower the vehicle over the engine/transaxle assembly.
2. Continue lowering vehicle until engine/transaxle aligns to mounting locations. Install mounting bolts at the right and left engine/transaxle mounts (Fig. 11) and (Fig. 12). Tighten bolts to 118 Nm (87 ft. lbs.).
3. Install upper engine torque strut.
4. Remove safety straps from engine/transaxle assembly. Slowly raise vehicle enough to remove the engine dolly and cradle.
5. Install power steering pump.
6. Connect power steering lines to power steering pump.
7. Install A/C compressor.
8. Install lower engine torque strut.
9. Install drive plate to clutch module bolts.
10. Install structural collar.
NOTE: The upper shield must be installed first to prevent fatiguing the lower shield.
11. Install elbow, turbocharger support bracket, elbow support bracket, and upper and lower heat shields (Fig. 10).
12. Connect both power steering hoses to steering gear (Fig. 9).
13. Connect exhaust system to manifold (Fig. 8).
14. Connect the downstream oxygen sensor.
15. Install charge air cooler hoses.
16. Install generator and mounting brackets.
17. Install accessory drive belts.
18. Install axle shafts.
19. Install right inner splash shield.
20. Install wheels and lower vehicle.
21. Install cooling module assembly, and connect radiator fan electrical connector.
22. Connect power steering hoses to radiator.
23. Connect clutch hydraulic line (Fig. 5).
24. Connect transmission shift linkage.
25. Connect transmission electrical connectors.
NOTE: It is not necessary to bleed the clutch hydraulic system. The quick-connect fittings close immediately after disconnection; allowing no fluid to escape.
26. Connect A/C lines at junction near upper torque strut.
27. Connect upper A/C line to A/C condenser.
