*: New automatic transmission's compensation code.

CAUTION:

*a Heavy object exceeding the capacity of the engine lifter

Because the weight of the engine with transmission assembly is extremely heavy, make sure to follow the work procedures described in the repair manual.
If work is not performed according to the procedures described in the repair manual, there is a danger that the engine lifter could drop and components could fall down.

*a High temperature areas

Do not touch the engine or exhaust manifold sub-assembly when they are hot.
Touching the engine or exhaust manifold sub-assembly when they are hot could result in burns.

Never perform work on fuel system components near any possible ignition sources.
Vaporized fuel could ignite, resulting in a serious accident.

Do not perform work on fuel system components without first disconnecting the cable from the negative (-) battery terminal.
Sparks could cause vaporized fuel to ignite, resulting in a serious accident.

Note

When the oil cooler assembly (for air cooled type) has been removed/installed or the oil cooler hose sub-assembly has been disconnected/reconnected, check the engine oil level after warming up the engine oil to between 100°C (212°F) and 120°C (248°F) to open the thermostat between the engine and oil cooler assembly (for air cooled type).

PROCEDURE

PRECAUTION

Note

After turning the engine switch off, waiting time may be required before disconnecting the cable from the negative (-) battery terminal. Therefore, make sure to read the disconnecting the cable from the negative (-) battery terminal notices before proceeding with work.

DISCONNECT OIL COOLER TUBE WITH OIL COOLER HOSE
1. Slide the 2 hose clips and disconnect the 2 oil cooler hoses from the automatic transmission assembly.
2. Remove the 3 bolts and disconnect the oil cooler tubes from the engine assembly and automatic transmission assembly.
  
  Tech Tips
  
  When removing the automatic transmission assembly, hold the oil cooler tube in a position so that the oil cooler tube and automatic transmission assembly do not interfere with one another.
REMOVE ENGINE REAR MOUNTING MEMBER
1. Bolt
  
  Nut
  
  Remove the nut, spring washer and 2 bolts and disconnect the throttle link connecting rod assembly from the shift control actuator assembly.
2. Remove the 3 nuts and engine rear mounting member.
REMOVE REAR ENGINE MOUNTING INSULATOR
1. Remove the 4 bolts and rear engine mounting insulator.
REMOVE DRIVE PLATE AND TORQUE CONVERTER SETTING BOLT
1. Turn the crankshaft to gain access to each bolt and remove the 6 drive plate and torque converter setting bolts while holding the crankshaft pulley bolt with a wrench.
REMOVE AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION ASSEMBLY
1. Using a rope or equivalent, support the automatic transmission assembly at the positions shown in the illustration.
  
  CAUTION:
  
  Secure the engine assembly to the engine lifter using a belt, etc. to prevent it from falling.
2. Remove the 10 bolts and automatic transmission assembly.
  CAUTION:
  
  Do not raise the automatic transmission assembly more than necessary.
  
  Make sure to confirm the center of the gravity of the automatic transmission assembly when supporting it.
  Note
  
  Do not use excessive force to pry out the automatic transmission assembly when separating it from the engine assembly to prevent the knock pins from being damaged.
  
  When removing the automatic transmission assembly, make sure that the oil cooler tube does not become damaged.
  
  Do not allow the wooden blocks or equivalent to contact the transmission oil pan assembly when supporting the automatic transmission assembly, as the transmission oil pan assembly may be deformed as a result.
REMOVE TORQUE CONVERTER ASSEMBLY
1. *a Matchmark
  
  Put matchmarks on the automatic transmission assembly and torque converter assembly.
2. Remove the torque converter assembly from the automatic transmission assembly.
