NOTE:
Use a back-up wrench to prevent the fittings in the high-pressure fuel injection pump from turning.
NOTE:
The cooling fan has a LH thread.
NOTE:
Raise the supply tube up to clear the Engine Coolant Temperature (ECT) sensor connector when positioning the power steering pump aside.
NOTE:
The Front End Accessory Drive (FEAD) is not removed, it is positioned forward to access the front banjo bolt.
NOTE:
It may be necessary to position the accessory drive tensioner to access the lower bolt. Remove the bottom bolt first.
NOTE:
The coolant hose clamps used on this engine are constant tension worm gear clamps. Standard worm gear clamps cannot be used. Failure to use the correct coolant hose clamps may result in hose joint failure.

RH side shown, LH side similar.
NOTE:
Clean the area between the engine block and the intake manifold thoroughly before removing the intake manifold. The slope of the block will cause any foreign material not removed to fall into the engine, resulting in engine damage.
NOTE:
Mark the location of the fasteners prior to removing.
