PROCEDURE
INSTALL FRONT EXHAUST PIPE ASSEMBLY
Inspect the free length.
| Free Length of Compression Spring | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|
|
Using a vernier caliper, measure the free length of the compression spring.
If the length is not as specified, replace the compression spring.
Using a plastic hammer and a wooden block, tap in a new exhaust pipe gasket until its surface is flush with the exhaust manifold.
| *1 | Exhaust Manifold |
| *2 | Exhaust Pipe Gasket |
| *a | Wooden Block |
| *b | Plastic Hammer |
Install the exhaust pipe gasket in the correct direction.
Do not reuse the exhaust pipe gasket.
Do not damage the exhaust pipe gasket by dropping it, etc.
Do not damage the outer surface of the exhaust pipe gasket.
Do not push in the exhaust pipe gasket with the front exhaust pipe assembly when connecting it.
Connect the 3 exhaust pipe supports to install the front exhaust pipe assembly to the vehicle.
Install the front exhaust pipe assembly to the exhaust manifold with the 2 compression springs and 2 bolts.
| *1 | Exhaust Manifold |
| *2 | Front Exhaust Pipe Assembly |
| *3 | Exhaust Pipe Gasket |
| *a | Space between flanges: 8.5 mm (0.335 in.) |
| 43 N*m | 438 kgf*cm | 32 ft.*lbf |
After the installation, check that the gaps between the flanges of the exhaust manifold and front exhaust pipe assembly are consistent front-to-rear and left-to-right.
INSTALL TAIL EXHAUST PIPE ASSEMBLY
Inspect the free length.
| Free Length of Compression Spring | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|
|
Using a vernier caliper, measure the free length of the compression spring.
If the length is not as specified, replace the compression spring.
Using a plastic hammer and a wooden block, tap in a new No. 2 exhaust pipe gasket until its surface is flush with the front exhaust pipe assembly.
| *1 | Front Exhaust Pipe Assembly |
| *2 | No. 2 Exhaust Pipe Gasket |
| *a | Wooden Block |
| *b | Plastic Hammer |
Install the No. 2 exhaust pipe gasket in the correct direction.
Do not reuse the No. 2 exhaust pipe gasket.
Do not damage the No. 2 exhaust pipe gasket by dropping it, etc.
Do not damage the outer surface of the No. 2 exhaust pipe gasket.
Do not push in the No. 2 exhaust pipe gasket with the tail exhaust pipe assembly when connecting it.
Connect the 2 exhaust pipe supports to install the tail exhaust pipe assembly to the vehicle.
Install the tail exhaust pipe assembly to the front exhaust pipe assembly with the 2 compression springs and 2 bolts.
| *1 | Front Exhaust Pipe Assembly |
| *2 | Tail Exhaust Pipe Assembly |
| *3 | No. 2 Exhaust Pipe Gasket |
| *a | Space between flanges: 6.5 mm (0.256 in.) |
| 43 N*m | 438 kgf*cm | 32 ft.*lbf |
After the installation, check that the gaps between the flanges of the front exhaust pipe assembly and tail exhaust pipe assembly are consistent front-to-rear and left-to-right.
INSTALL FRONT FLOOR CENTER BRACE
Install the front floor center brace to the vehicle with the 4 bolts.
| 30 N*m | 307 kgf*cm | 22 ft.*lbf |
INSTALL NO. 2 HEATED OXYGEN SENSOR
