Connect pipeline 1 (Fig. 5), clutch hydraulic drive to slave cylinder 2, by pressing retainer 4.

Bleed air from clutch hydraulic drive circuit.

For vehicles with power steering:

Install the power steering reservoir.

Install and connect high and low pressure power steering pipelines.

Connect connector 2 (Fig. 6) of the wiring harness to the pressure sensor in the power steering system.

Install the cooling system hoses in the holder.

Connect hoses 2 (Fig. 7), engine cooling system with new clamps:

• - to thermostat housing 3;
• - to coolant supply pipe;
• - to engine cooling system radiator.

Connect:

• - brake booster vacuum hose to intake manifold;
• - crankcase ventilation hose to intake manifold;

Connect:

• - fuel supply line 1 (Fig. 8), to fuel rail 2;
• - wiring harness block to the electromagnetic valve of the adsorber purge;

Connect:

• - clamp 2 (Fig. 9), throttle drive cable sheath;
• - ball end 1 of the drive cable to the throttle valve unit;

Attach:

• - connectors of wiring harness 3 (Fig. 10), to electric fan 4 of the engine cooling system;
• - wiring harness to the fan of the cooling system.

Replace the sealing gasket of plug 1 of the drain hole and install the plug with a new gasket.

Tightening torque of the drain hole plug 22 Nm (2.2 kgf.m) (wrench for an internal square of 8 mm, replaceable nozzle for an internal square of 8 mm, torque wrench).

Unscrew the plug of the filler hole.

Fill the oil into the gearbox. The oil level should reach the lower edge of the filler hole (transmission oil, filling rate: for JH3 - 2.8 l; for JR5 - 2.5 l).

Install the filler plug.

Fill the cooling system with fluid.

For vehicles with air conditioning system, additionally connect block 1, wiring harness to refrigerant pressure sensor 2

Remove the process plugs and connect the pipeline to the air conditioning compressor

Attach the fuel vapor recovery system hose;

Install the front bumper.

Install the hub mounting nuts using the tool. Tightening torque of the hub mounting nut 280 Nm (28.0 kgf.m) (device Rou. 604-01, replaceable head 32, ratchet, torque wrench).

We install:

• - side mudguards and linings;
• - engine crankcase protection;
• - front wheels;
• - injection system ECU.

We install:

Additionally for vehicles with power steering:

Fill the power steering system with working fluid (power steering oil Mobil ATF 52475).

Bleed air from the power steering system by turning the steering wheel from the extreme left position to the extreme right.

Start the engine and bleed air from the power steering system by turning the steering wheel from the extreme left position to the extreme right.

We bring the level of the working fluid in the power steering pump reservoir to normal.

We make sure that there is no leakage of the working fluid.

We remove air from the engine cooling system

For cars with air conditioning - we fill the refrigerant into the air conditioning system circuit.
