Oil pan

Withdrawal

Remove the ground wire from the battery. Drain the engine oil. Refit the oil pan drain plug.

Unscrew nuts, and separate a reception exhaust pipe from a collector. The exhaust pipe seal must be replaced with a new one. Hang the exhaust pipe to the body with a soft wire. On engines with a catalyst, disconnect the connector from the oxygen sensor.

Remove the starter.

Unscrew the two bolts and remove the clutch housing plate. On Endura-E engines, remove the bolts securing the sump tab to the gearbox.

On air-conditioned Endura-E models, remove the accessory drive belt, unbolt the compressor from the sump mounting, and move the compressor out of the way. Do not disconnect any hoses.

Unscrew the eighteen bolts securing the oil pan to the crankcase, then use the lever to separate and remove the pan.

Remove dirt and old gasket from sump and crankcase mating surfaces, and wash sump before reinstalling. Check that the oil strainer is clean (see fig. 2A.22).

Installation. HCS engines

Remove the old gaskets from the chain cover and flywheel side and clean the mating surfaces. Apply sealant to gasket locations. Install new cork gaskets on the front of the block, using a thick coat of clean lubricant to secure them, then install new rubber gaskets into the grooves in the chain cover and rear oil seal ring cover. Install the protrusions of the halves of the cork gasket under the fuses in the rubber gaskets (see fig. 2A.23. 2A.24).






Before installing the sump, check that the gap between the sump and the oil separator is between 2.0 and 3.8 mm. Do not use a dented or damaged sump as the marked measurement is important for proper engine lubrication (see fig. 2A.25).



Install the pallet and fasten with bolts in a certain sequence. Final tighten the bolts after the engine has warmed up (see fig. 2A.26).




Install the plate to the front of the clutch housing. Install starter.

Screw the exhaust pipe to the manifold.

Check that the oil drain plug is in place and secure, then lower the vehicle.

Fill the engine with engine oil.

Connect the ground wire to the battery and start and warm up the engine.

After 15 minutes of operation, turn off the engine, and tighten the pan bolts (stage 3).

Installation. Endura-E engines

Completely clean the mating surfaces of the oil pan and cylinder block.

Apply sealant to the front and rear of the cylinder block where the gasket is installed. Also apply sealant to the corners of the semi-circular areas on the chain cover and rear oil o-ring retainer.

Position the gasket on the oil pan, and install the pan on the cylinder block.

Tighten the bolts in sequence. The final tightening of the bolts should be done after the engine has warmed up (see Figure 2A.27).



Screw in the bolts securing the sump lug to the gearbox. Install starter.


Install the air conditioning compressor, then the auxiliary drive belt.

Screw the exhaust pipe to the manifold.

Check that the oil drain plug is in place and secure, then lower the vehicle.

Fill the engine with engine oil.

Connect the ground wire to the battery and start and warm up the engine.

After 15 minutes of operation, turn off the engine, and tighten the pan bolts (stage 3).
