Replacement

REMOVAL
1. Disconnect battery earth (-) terminal
2. Remove belt cover.
3. Loosen nuts which secure idler pulley.





4. Loosen slider bolt, and remove V-belt.





5. Remove nut from front end of oil pump pulley, and detach oil pump pulley.
6. Disconnect oil pump switch harness connector.





7. Drain approximately 0.3 liters (0.3 US qt.) of fluid from oil reservoir tank.
8. Disconnect hose from oil reservoir tank.

CAUTION: Be careful not to spill fluid from hose end to V-belt. Cover open ends of hose and pipe with a clean cloth to prevent entry of foreign matter.





9. Disconnect Pressure pine from pump.
10. Remove bolts securing oil pump & tank to bracket, and then remove pump and tank.
11. Place pump in a vise, and remove bolts from upper surface of tank.

CAUTION: Use soft jaws and lightly tighten vise jaws. After bolts are loose enough to be rotated with your hand, press pump against tank while removing bolts. Failure to do so causes fluid to spill out. Remove tank as quickly as possible, and wipe clean fluid spilled on parts. Except when only tank is to be checked, remove tank and pump as a unit and separate from each other on a work bench. This prevents fluid from spilling on the engine.

INSTALLATION
To install, reverse the order of removal procedures. Replenish specified fluid and purge air. Do not operate engine before replenishing fluid as this will seize oil pump.
