CAUTION:
  • When the transaxle is installed, do not suspend the engine. Otherwise, the SST installation area of the cylinder head may be damaged due to excess weight. Only suspend the engine after separating the engine and transaxle.
  • Applying excessive force (force of 100 N {10.2 kgf, 22.5 lbf} or more) to the electric variable valve timing motor/driver may cause a malfunction. When servicing, be careful not to apply excessive force to the electric variable valve timing motor/driver using other parts or tools.
  1. To enable installation of the SST, remove the bolts and clip shown in the figure and set the wiring harness bracket aside.

    CAUTION:
    • Slots have been adopted for the No. 3 engine mount installation holes. If the No. 3 engine mount is deviated from the original position when installing the No. 3 engine mount, engine noise or vibration could increase. Before removing the No. 3 engine mount, place alignment marks on the No. 3 engine mount and body so that they can be assembled to the same positions as before removal.
