13. REMOVE ENGINE MOUNTING INSULATOR SUB-ASSEMBLY RH (w/ Air Conditioning System)

    
    

    1. 

       Remove the bolt and separate the No. 2 earth wire from the engine mounting insulator sub-assembly RH.

    2. 

       Remove the bolt, nut and separate the air conditioner tube and accessory assembly from the vehicle and engine mounting insulator sub-assembly RH.

       Tech Tips

       This step is performed in order to remove the engine mounting insulator sub-assembly RH.

    3. 

       Remove the 4 bolts, 2 nuts and engine mounting insulator sub-assembly RH from the vehicle and engine mounting bracket RH.

       Tech Tips

       As the engine mounting insulator sub-assembly RH contacts the air conditioning tube assembly and cannot be taken out, move the engine mounting insulator sub-assembly RH to a position where the bolt of the camshaft timing oil control solenoid assembly can be removed.

14. REMOVE ENGINE MOUNTING INSULATOR SUB-ASSEMBLY RH (w/o Air Conditioning System)

    
    

    1. 

       Remove the bolt and separate the No. 2 earth wire from the engine mounting insulator sub-assembly RH.

    2. 

       Remove the 4 bolts, 2 nuts and engine mounting insulator sub-assembly RH from the vehicle and engine mounting bracket RH.

15. REMOVE CAMSHAFT TIMING OIL CONTROL SOLENOID ASSEMBLY (for Intake Side)

    
    

    1. 

       Disconnect the camshaft timing oil control solenoid assembly connector.

    2. Remove the 2 bolts and camshaft timing oil control solenoid assembly from the timing chain cover assembly.

       Note

       If the camshaft timing oil control solenoid assembly has been struck or dropped, replace it.

    3. 

       Remove the O-ring from the camshaft timing oil control solenoid assembly.

       Note

       
       

       • If the O-ring comes off in the timing chain cover assembly, make sure to remove it.

       • Do not drop the O-ring into the timing chain cover assembly.

16. REMOVE CAMSHAFT TIMING OIL CONTROL SOLENOID ASSEMBLY (for Exhaust Side)

    
    

    1. 

       Remove the bolt and separate the engine wire from the cylinder head cover sub-assembly.

    2. 

       Disengage the clamp to remove the wire harness clamp bracket from the engine wire.

    3. 

       Disconnect the camshaft timing oil control solenoid assembly connector.

    4. Remove the 2 bolts and camshaft timing oil control solenoid assembly from the timing chain cover assembly.

       Note

       If the camshaft timing oil control solenoid assembly has been struck or dropped, replace it.

    5. 

       Remove the O-ring from the camshaft timing oil control solenoid assembly.

       Note

       
       

       • If the O-ring comes off in the timing chain cover assembly, make sure to remove it.

       • Do not drop the O-ring into the timing chain cover assembly.
