CAUTION:
When performing repair work, especially due to the confined conditions in the engine compartment, pay attention to the following:
- Route all types of lines (e.g. for fuel, hydraulics, EVAP system, coolant, refrigerant, brake fluid and vacuum) as well as electrical wiring so that the original positions are restored.
- Ensure sufficient clearance to all moving or hot components.
All cable ties which are opened or cut open when removing engine, must be replaced in the same position when installing the engine.
