Refitting. Only by a hoist or other lifting device

Only by a hoist or other lifting device.

22 Slowly lift the engine (or engine/ transmission) out of the vehicle (see illustration). It may be necessary to lever the

mountings away from the frame brackets.

Note: When removing the engine from amanual transmission-equipped vehicle and the transmission is to remain in the vehicle, you may have to use the jack supporting the transmission to tilt the transmission enough to allow the engine to be angled out of the vehicle.

23 Move the engine away from the vehicle and carefully lower the hoist until the engine can be set on the floor; or remove the flywheel/ driveplate and mount the engine on an engine stand. Note: On automatic transmission-equipped models, mark the front and rear spacer plates (where fitted) and keep them with the driveplate.

24 Check the engine/transmission mountings.

If they're worn or damaged, renew them.

25 On manual transmission-equipped models, inspect the clutch components (see

Chapter 6) and on automatic models inspect the converter seal and bushing.

26 On automatic transmission-equipped models, apply a dab of grease to the nose of the converter.

27 Carefully guide the transmission into place, following the procedure outlined in Chapter 7A or 7B.

Caution: Do not use the bolts to force the engine and transmission into alignment. They may crack or damage major components.

28 Install the engine-to-transmission bolts and tighten them to the torque listed in the Chapter 7A or 7B Specifications.

29 Attach the hoist to the engine and carefully lower the engine/transmission assembly into the engine compartment. Note: If the engine was removed with the transmission remaining in the car, lower the engine into the car until an assistant can help you line up the dowel pins on the block with the transmission. Some

twisting and angling of the engine and/or the transmission will be necessary to secure proper alignment of the two.

30 Install the mounting bolts and tighten them securely.

31 Reinstall the remaining components and fasteners in the reverse order of removal.

32 Add coolant, oil, power steering and trans-mission fluids as needed (see Chapter 1).

33 Run the engine and check for proper operation and leaks. Shut off the engine and recheck the fluid levels.
