REMOVAL SERVICE POINTS



<<A>> ALTERNATOR DRIVE BELT REMOVAL


To introduce the serpentine drive system with the alternator drive belt auto-tensioner, the following operations will be required.

1.
caution To reuse the alternator drive belt, draw an arrow indicating the rotating direction on the back of the alternator drive belt using chalk to install the same direction.
Turn the alternator drive belt auto-tensioner to anti-clockwise, and insert the L-shaped hexagon wrench to the alternator drive belt auto-tensioner hole in order to fix the auto-tensioner.
2.Remove the alternator drive belt.

<<B>> POWER STEERING OIL PUMP DRIVE BELT REMOVAL



1.
caution
  • To reuse the power steering oil pump drive belt, draw an arrow indicating the rotating direction on the back of the power steering oil pump drive belt using chalk to install the same direction.
  • Hang the special tool drive belt remover (MB992276) on the vehicle components (including front sidemembers) using a cord and paper clip to prevent from falling.
Set the special tool drive belt remover (MB992276) as shown and hold it by a finger.

2.
caution Be careful that the finger holding the special tool drive belt remover (MB992276) is not pinched.
Slightly turn the crankshaft pulley clockwise until the special tool drive belt remover (MB992276) is pinched and held between the oil pump assembly pulley and the power steering oil pump drive belt as shown.
3.If the special tool drive belt remover (MB992276) is held, move the finger off.
4.
caution If the power steering oil pump drive belt is detached, be careful that the special tool drive belt remover (MB992276) is also detached and fallen.
Slowly turn the crankshaft pulley clockwise until the power steering oil pump drive belt goes aground on the special tool drive belt remover (MB992276) and is detached.
5.Remove the special tool drive belt remover (MB992276).

<<C>> FUEL HIGH-PRESSURE HOSE DISCONNECTION



1.Remove the fuel high-pressure hose stopper.

2.Remove the fuel high-pressure hose in the direction shown in the figure while the retainer is pulled up.
note If the retainer is released, install it after removing the fuel high-pressure hose.

<<D>> POWER STEERING OIL PUMP ASSEMBLY REMOVAL


1.Remove the power steering oil pump assembly from the engine with the hose attached.
2.Place the removed power steering oil pump assembly in a place where it will not be a hindrance when removing and installing the engine assembly, and secure it with a cord or wire.

<<E>> A/C COMPRESSOR AND CLUTCH ASSEMBLY REMOVAL


1.Remove the A/C compressor and clutch assembly from the A/C compressor bracket with the hose still attached.
2.Place the removed A/C compressor and clutch assembly where it will not be a hindrance when removing and installing the engine assembly, and secure it with a cord or wire.

<<F>> ENGINE MOUNTING BRACKET REMOVAL
