Installation

Install in the reverse order of removal.

Perform the following :

•	Adjust the shift cable.

•	Adjust the throttle cable.

•	Refill engine with engine oil.

•	Refill the transaxle with fluid.

•	Refill power steering fluid.

•	Refill the radiator and the reservoir tank with engine coolant.

•	Place the heater control knob on "HOT" position.

•	Clean battery posts and cable terminals and assemble.

•	Inspect for fuel leakage.

–	After assembling the fuel line, turn on the ignition switch (without operating the starter) so that the fuel pump runs for approximately two seconds and fuel line pressurizes.

–	Repeat this operation two or three times, and then check for fuel leakage at any point on the fuel lines.

•	Bleed air from the cooling system.

–	Start engine and let it run until it warms up.(Until the radiator fan operates 3 to 4 times.)

–	Turn off the engine and let it cool down. Check the level in the radiator, and add coolant if needed. This will allow trapped air to be released from the cooling system.

–	Put radiator cap on tightly, then run the engine again and check for leaks.
