EXHAUST PIPE INSTALLATION

PROCEDURE

1. INSTALL TAIL EXHAUST PIPE BAFFLE SUB-ASSEMBLY

   1. 

      *a	Plastic Hammer
      *b	Protruding Part
      *c	Concave

      Align the concave area of new tail exhaust pipe baffle sub-assembly with the protruding part of the tail exhaust pipe assembly as shown in the illustration.

   2. Using a plastic hammer, uniformly tap the tail exhaust pipe baffle sub-assembly onto the tail exhaust pipe assembly.

2. INSTALL FRONT EXHAUST PIPE ASSEMBLY

   1. 

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

      Minimum

      41.5 mm (1.63 in.)

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

   2. 

      *1	Exhaust Manifold Converter Sub-assembly
      *2	Gasket
      *a	Wooden Block

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

      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.

   3. Connect the front exhaust pipe assembly to the 2 exhaust pipe supports.

   4. Install a new gasket to the exhaust manifold converter sub-assembly.

   5. 

      *1	Exhaust Manifold Converter Sub-assembly
      *2	Front Exhaust Pipe Assembly
      *3	Gasket
      *a	Space between flanges: 8.5 mm (0.335 in.)

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

      43 N*m

      438 kgf*cm

      32 ft.*lbf

      Tip:

      After installation, check that the space between the flanges of the exhaust manifold converter sub-assembly front exhaust pipe assembly are consistent front-to-rear and left-to-right.

4. INSTALL FRONT CENTER FLOOR BRACE SUB-ASSEMBLY

   1. Install the front center floor brace sub-assembly with the 4 bolts.

      51 N*m

      520 kgf*cm

      38 ft.*lbf

5. INSTALL FRONT NO. 3 ENGINE UNDER COVER

   1. Install the front No. 3 engine under cover with the 4 clips.

6. INSTALL TAIL EXHAUST PIPE ASSEMBLY

   1. 

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

      Minimum

      38.5 mm (1.52 in.)

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

   2. 

      *1	Front Exhaust Pipe Assembly
      *2	Gasket
      *a	Wooden Block

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

      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 pipes when connecting them.

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

      Note:

      Wrap the tail exhaust pipe baffle sub-assembly with a piece of cloth to keep it from damaging the rear bumper.

   4. 

      *1	Tail Exhaust Pipe Assembly
      *2	Front Exhaust Pipe Assembly
      *3	Gasket
      *a	Space between flanges: 6.5 mm (0.256 in.)

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

      43 N*m

      438 kgf*cm

      32 ft.*lbf

      Tip:

      After installation, check that the space between the flanges of the front exhaust pipe assembly and tail exhaust pipe assembly are consistent front-to-rear and left-to-right.
