EXHAUST PIPE INSTALLATION

PROCEDURE

1. INSTALL FRONT EXHAUST PIPE ASSEMBLY

   1. 

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

      Minimum

      40.5 mm (1.59 in.)

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

   2. Temporarily install a new gasket to the exhaust manifold (TWC: Catalyst).

   3. 

      *1	Exhaust Manifold (TWC: Catalyst)
      *2	Gasket
      *a	Wooden Block

      Using a plastic hammer and wooden block, tap in the gasket until its surface is flush with the exhaust manifold (TWC: Catalyst).

      Note:

      • Be sure to install the gasket in the correct direction.

      • 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 2 exhaust pipe supports.

   5. 

      *1	Exhaust Manifold (TWC: Catalyst)
      *2	Front Exhaust Pipe Assembly
      *3	Gasket
      *a	Space between Flanges: 8.5 mm (0.335 in.)

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

      Tip:

      After installation, check that the space between the flanges of the exhaust manifold (TWC: Catalyst) and front exhaust pipe assembly is consistent front-to-rear and left-to-right.

2. INSTALL TAIL EXHAUST PIPE ASSEMBLY

   1. Install a new gasket to the front exhaust pipe assembly.

   2. Connect the tail exhaust pipe assembly to the 2 exhaust pipe supports.

   3. Install the tail exhaust pipe assembly with the 2 bolts.

4. INSPECT FOR EXHAUST GAS LEAK

   If gas is leaking, tighten the areas necessary to stop the leak. Replace damaged parts as necessary.
