NOTE:
Clean the LH and RH engine support insulator-to-frame mating surfaces of any dirt or foreign material prior to installation.
NOTE:
Apply threadlock to the bolt threads prior to installation.
NOTE:
The torque converter must be installed in it's original orientation to the flexplate or engine damage may occur.
NOTE:
Only use hand tools when tightening the engine support insulator through bolt or the engine support insulator may be damaged.
NOTE:
Only use hand tools when tightening the engine support insulator nuts or the engine support insulator may be damaged.
NOTE:
Make sure the RH engine support insulator mating surfaces and the washer mating surface are free of foreign material and corrosion before installation. Install a new washer.
NOTE:
The upper 2 transmission-to-engine bolts will be installed later.
NOTE:
While servicing the power steering system, care should be taken to prevent the entry of foreign material or failure of the power steering components may result.
NOTE:
If the engine is repaired or replaced because of upper engine failure, typically including valve or piston damage, check the intake manifold for metal debris. If metal debris is found, install a new intake manifold. Failure to follow these instructions can result in engine damage.
NOTE:
Align the index marks made during hood removal.
