Warning

•  Hot engines and engine oil can cause severe burns. Turn off the engine and wait until it and the engine oil have cooled.

•  A vehicle that is lifted but not securely supported on safety stands is dangerous. It can slip or fall, causing death or serious injury. Never work around or under a lifted vehicle if it is not securely supported on safety stands.

•  Continuous exposure to USED engine oil has caused skin cancer in laboratory mice. Protect your skin by washing with soap and water immediately after working with engine oil.

Bolt Removal Note

1.  Cover the area around the engine oil solenoid valve with a cloth because a small amount of engine oil will leak from the engine oil solenoid valve installation area.

Caution

•  Do not let any leaked engine oil contact the adjacent water pump gasket and O-ring of the water inlet pipe. Otherwise, the gasket could swell causing a seal malfunction.

2.  Remove the bolts shown in the figure.
