5. Removing the upper and lower radiator hoses.
Before disconnecting the upper and lower radiator hoses, place relative position alignment marks on the hose and hose clamp.

6. Removing the engine support.
a) Place a hydraulic jack under the engine.
b) Remove the special tools used to remove the gearbox.
c) Secure the engine to the crossbar and hang it on a hoist or similar device (special device).
Engine 4G15.
Engine 4G93.
d) Insert a wooden block between the jack support foot and the engine oil pan, lift the engine slightly to relieve the support from the engine weight.

7. Removing the engine assembly.
a) Check that all cables, wires (electrical connectors), hoses and other connections are disconnected from the engine.
b) Install special devices on the engine (engine lift and crossbar or any other similar tool).

c) Using special tools, slowly lift the engine assembly up out of the engine compartment so that it does not move to the side.
Installation
Installation is carried out in the reverse order of removal.
When installing parts, please pay attention to the following operations:
1. Installing the engine assembly.
a) Using special tools (engine lift and crossbar), slowly lower and install the engine assembly into the engine compartment so that it does not move to the side.
b) Remove the special devices (engine lift and crossmember) from the engine.
c) When installing the engine, carefully check that the wires, tubes, hoses and wire connectors are connected correctly, that they are not pinched, twisted, damaged, etc.
2. Installing the engine support.
a) Place a hydraulic trolley jack under the engine (inserting a wooden block between the jack support foot and the engine oil pan) and install the engine support, adjusting the engine position using the jack.
b) Support the engine with a jack.
c) Supporting the engine with a special tool (jack), disconnect the hoist.
3. Installing the O-ring and flange of the high pressure fuel hose.
a) Apply a small amount of engine oil to the working edge of the O-ring around its entire circumference.
b) Rotate the flange of the high-pressure fuel hose to the right and left, carefully install the hose without damaging the O-ring. After connecting, check that the hose rotates smoothly.
c) If the hose flange does not rotate smoothly, the O-ring may be jammed. Disconnect the high-pressure fuel hose flange and check the O-ring for damage, then repeat the installation from step b.
d) Tighten the high pressure fuel hose flange mounting bolts to the specified torque.
Tightening torque: 5 ±1 Nm
4. Installing the lower and upper radiator hoses.
a) When connecting the radiator hose, push the hose onto the pipe until it stops against the protrusion of the pipe, then tighten the clamp.
b) The hose clamp should always be installed in the position in which the clamp was previously installed. Therefore, before installing the clamp, align the installation marks on the hose clamp and the radiator hose, then connect the hose.
After completing the installation of the parts, perform the following operations:
- a) Connect the exhaust pipe from the exhaust manifold.
- b) (Engine 4G15) Connect the accelerator pedal cable
- c) Install the battery tray and battery.
- d) Install the air filter.
- d) Install the hood.
- e) (Engine 4G93) Install the radiator.
- g) Fill with coolant and engine oil.
- c) Install the engine crankcase protective cover.
- i) Adjust the accelerator pedal cable.
- k) Check for fuel leaks.
