EXHAUST PIPE INSTALLATION

PROCEDURE


  1. INSTALL FRONT EXHAUST PIPE ASSEMBLY (w/ Exhaust Heat Recirculation System)

    Note

    When installing the water hose, ensure that the exhaust heat recirculation system is filled with coolant. Otherwise, the engine water pump assembly may be damaged.

      Using a vernier caliper, measure the free length of the compression springs.

      Minimum 41.5 mm (1.64 in.)

      Tech Tips

      If the free length is less than the minimum, replace the compression spring.

    2. Fully insert a new gasket to the exhaust manifold.

      *2 Gasket
      *3 Wooden Block

      Using a plastic hammer and wooden block, tap in the new gasket until its surface is flush with the exhaust manifold.

      Note


      • Be careful with the installation direction of the gasket.

      • Do not reuse the gasket.

      • Do not damage the gasket.

      • Do not push in the gasket by using the exhaust pipe when connecting it.

    4. Connect the front exhaust pipe assembly to the 3 exhaust pipe supports.

    5. Install the front exhaust pipe assembly with the 2 bolts and 2 compression springs.

      Torque:
      43 N*m  { 438 kgf*cm, 32 ft.*lbf }

    6. Connect the 2 heater water hoses.
