INSTALL FRONT EXHAUST PIPE ASSEMBLY
Using a vernier caliper, measure the free length of the compression spring.
| Minimum free length |
|---|
| 41.5 mm (1.63 in.) |
If the length is less than the minimum, replace the compression spring.
| *1 | Gasket |
| *a | Wooden Block |
Using a plastic-faced hammer and wooden block, tap in a new gasket until its surface is flush with the exhaust manifold.
Note
Be sure to install the gasket so that it faces the correct direction.
Do not reuse the gasket.
Do not damage the gasket.
When connecting the exhaust pipe, do not push in the gasket with the exhaust pipe.
Connect the front exhaust pipe assembly to the exhaust pipe support..
Install the front exhaust pipe assembly to the exhaust manifold with the 2 compression springs and 2 bolts. Alternately tighten the bolts in several passes.
INSTALL HEATED OXYGEN SENSOR
| *1 | Fulcrum Length |
Using SST, install the heated oxygen sensor.
Tech Tips
Use a torque wrench with a fulcrum length of 30 cm (11.8 in.). If using a torque wrench with a length that is not 30 cm (11.8 in.), calculate the torque specification for the torque wrench and SST based on the "without SST" torque specification Click here.
Make sure SST and the wrench are connected in a straight line.
Attach the wire harness clamp.
Connect the oxygen sensor connector.
INSTALL AIR FUEL RATIO SENSOR
| *1 | Fulcrum Length |
Using SST, install the air fuel ratio sensor.
Tech Tips
Use a torque wrench with a fulcrum length of 30 cm (11.8 in.). If using a torque wrench with a length that is not 30 cm (11.8 in.), calculate the torque specification for the torque wrench and SST based on the "without SST" torque specification Click here.
Make sure SST and the wrench are connected in a straight line.
Attach the wire harness clamp.
Connect the air fuel ratio sensor connector.
INSTALL CENTER EXHAUST PIPE ASSEMBLY
Install a new gasket.
Connect the center exhaust pipe assembly to the 2 exhaust pipe supports.
Install the center exhaust pipe assembly to the front exhaust pipe assembly with the 2 bolts. Alternately tighten the bolts in several passes.
INSTALL TAILPIPE ASSEMBLY
Install a new gasket.
Connect the tailpipe assembly to the exhaust pipe support.
Install the tailpipe assembly to the center exhaust pipe assembly with the 2 bolts. Alternately tighten the bolts in several passes.
CHECK FOR EXHAUST GAS LEAK
If gas is leaking, tighten the areas necessary to stop the leak. Replace damaged parts as necessary.
