Engine Installation

  1. Install the engine control module (ECM)/powertrain control module (PCM) bracket assembly (A).
  1. Connect the ECM/PCM connectors (B).
  1. Install the harness clamp (C).
  1. Install the strut brace.
  1. Install the air cleaner housing assembly.
  1. Do the battery installation procedure.
  1. A/T model: Move the shift lever to each gear, and verify that the A/T gear position indicator follows the transmission range switch.
  1. M/T model: Check that the transmission shifts into all gear smoothly.
  1. Inspect for fuel leaks. Turn the ignition switch to ON (II) (do not operate the starter) so the fuel pump runs for about 2 seconds and pressurizes the fuel line. Repeat this operation three times, then check for fuel leakage at any point in the fuel line.
  1. Refill the engine with engine oil.
  1. Refill the transmission with fluid:
    • Manual transmission
    • Automatic transmission
  1. Refill the radiator with engine coolant, and bleed air from the cooling system with the heater valve open.
  1. Do the ECM/PCM reset procedure.
  1. Do the ECM/PCM idle learn procedure.
  1. Do the crankshaft position (CKP) pattern clear/CKP pattern learn procedure.
  1. Inspect the idle speed.
  1. Inspect the ignition timing.
