Torque: 13 N.m (133 kgf/cm, 10 ft.lbf)
- Install the wire harness clamp bracket with the bolt.
- INSTALL AIR FUEL RATIO SENSOR
Refer to INSTALLATION [10/2018 - ]
- INSTALL FRONT EXHAUST PIPE ASSEMBLY (TWC: Rear Catalyst)
- Using a vernier caliper, measure the free length of the compression springs.
Minimum Free Length (Front) 41.5 mm (1.63 in.) Minimum Free Length (Rear) 38.5 mm (1.52 in.) If the free length is less than the minimum, replace the compression spring.
- Temporarily install 2 new exhaust pipe gaskets to the exhaust manifold (TWC: Front Catalyst) and front exhaust pipe assembly (TWC: Rear Catalyst).
- Using a plastic hammer and wooden block, tap in each exhaust pipe gasket until its surface is flush with the exhaust manifold (TWC: Front Catalyst) and front exhaust pipe assembly (TWC: Rear Catalyst).NOTE:
- Be sure to install the exhaust pipe gasket in the correct direction.
- Do not reuse the exhaust pipe gaskets.
- Do not damage the exhaust pipe gaskets.
- Do not push in the exhaust pipe gaskets by using the exhaust pipes when connecting them.
*1 Exhaust Manifold (TWC: Front Catalyst) or Front Exhaust Pipe Assembly (TWC: Rear Catalyst) *2 Exhaust Pipe Gasket *a Wooden Block - Connect the front exhaust pipe assembly (TWC: Rear Catalyst) to the 2 exhaust pipe supports.
- Install the front exhaust pipe assembly (TWC: Rear Catalyst) to the exhaust manifold (TWC: Front Catalyst) with the 2 compression springs and 2 bolts.
Torque: 43 N.m (438 kgf/cm, 32 ft.lbf)
HINT:
After installation, check that the space between the flanges of the exhaust manifold (TWC: Front Catalyst) and front exhaust pipe assembly (TWC: Rear Catalyst) is consistent front-to-rear and left-to-right.
*1 Exhaust Manifold (TWC: Front Catalyst) *2 Front Exhaust Pipe Assembly (TWC: Rear Catalyst) *3 Exhaust Pipe Gasket *a Space between Flanges: 8.5 mm (0.335 in.) - Install the front exhaust pipe assembly (TWC: Rear Catalyst) to the tail exhaust pipe assembly with the 2 compression springs and 2 bolts.
