Note
As there is very little space around the manual transaxle assembly, be extremely careful that the body, clutch pipe line and radiator cooling fan do not interfere with the manual transaxle assembly when removing the manual transaxle assembly.
When removing the manual transaxle assembly, it is necessary to move the engine assembly and manual transaxle assembly up and down, and back and forth. Therefore, continually confirm that the parts are properly supported and stable while performing this step.
Remove the nut and through bolt, and then disconnect the engine mounting insulator LH from the engine mounting bracket LH.
Lower the transmission jack a little at a time. Slightly tilt the engine assembly and manual transaxle assembly.
Tech Tips
Lower the engine assembly and manual transaxle assembly to a position where the engine mounting insulator LH can be removed.
Remove the 4 bolts and engine mounting insulator LH.
Remove the 4 bolts and engine mounting bracket LH.
Note
Make sure to clean the bolts and bolt holes after removing the manual transaxle assembly.
Use a cloth, etc. to protect the clutch pipe line in the area indicated in the illustration.
