Engine And Transaxle Assembly: Installation

Installation is in the reverse order of removal.

Perform the following:

• Adjust the shift cable.
• Adjust the throttle cable.
• Refill the engine with engine oil.
• Refill the transaxle with fluid.
• Refill the radiator and reservoir tank with engine coolant.
• Place the heater control knob on "HOT" position.
• Bleed air from the cooling system
  • Start engine and let it run until it warms up. (until the radiator fan operates 3 or 4 times.)
  • Turn Off the engine. Check the level in the radiator, add coolant if needed. This will allow trapped air to be removed from the cooling system.
  • Put the radiator cap on tightly, then run the engine again and check for leaks.
• Clean the battery posts and cable terminals with sandpaper assemble them, then apply grease to prevent corrosion.
• Inspect for fuel leakage.
  • After assemble the fuel line, turn on the ignition switch (do not operate the starter) so that the fuel pump runs for approximately two seconds and fuel line pressurizes.
  • Repeat this operation two or three times, then check for fuel leakage at any point in the fuel line.
