Removal and Installation

INFOID:0000000001062587

CAUTION:

• Be sure to use genuine exhaust system parts or equivalents which are specially designed for heat

resistance, corrosion resistance and shape.

• Perform the operation with the exhaust system fully cooled down because the system is still hot just

after the engine stops.

• Be careful not to cut your hand on the insulator edge.

REMOVAL

• Disconnect each joint and mounting.

INSTALLATION

• Install in the reverse order of removal.

CAUTION:

• Always replace exhaust gaskets with new ones when reassembling.
• If the insulator is badly deformed, repair or replace it. If deposits such as mud pile up on the insula-

tor, remove them.

• When installing the insulator avoid large gaps or interference between the insulator and each

exhaust pipe.

EXHAUST SYSTEM

• Remove deposits from the sealing surface of each connection. Connect them securely to avoid gas

leakage.

• Temporarily tighten mounting nuts on the exhaust manifold side and mounting bolts on the vehicle

side. Check each part for unusual interference, and then tighten them to the specified torque.

• When installing each mounting rubber, avoid twisting or unusual extension in up/down and right/left

directions.

INSPECTION AFTER INSTALLATION

• With the engine running, check exhaust tube joints for gas leakage and unusual noises.
• Check to ensure that mounting brackets and mounting insulators are installed properly and free from undue

stress. Improper installation could result in excessive noise and vibration.
