To Remove:

1. Before servicing the vehicle, refer to the precautions in the beginning of this section.
2. Shift the transaxle into R.
3. Remove or disconnect the following:
   • Negative and positive battery cables and the battery.
   • Idle Air Control (IAC) solenoid connector
   • Intake duct, resonator, air cleaner case, and battery base.
   • Starter wires and starter
   • Transaxle ground cable and the back-up light switch wire.
   • Cable stay, then the cables from the top housing of the transaxle
   • Both cables and the stay together
   • Vehicle Speed Sensor (VSS). Leave the speed sensor hoses connected.
   • Shift cable bracket
   • Shift and select cables from the top of the transaxle case. Leave the cables and bracket together, and wire them out of the work area.
   • Mounting bolts and clutch slave cylinder with the clutch pipe and pushrod.
   • Mounting bolt and clutch hose joint with the clutch pipe and clutch hose. NOTE: Do not depress the clutch pedal once the slave cylinder has been removed. Be careful not to kink the metal hydraulic lines.
   • 2 upper transaxle case bolts
4. Raise and safely support the vehicle.
5. Remove or disconnect the following:
   • Front wheels
   • Engine splash shield
6. Drain the transaxle fluid.
7. Remove or disconnect the following:
   • Clutch damper bracket and raise it out of the way.
   • Subframe center beam
   • Cotter pins and lower arm ball joint nuts
   • Ball joints and lower arms using a press type ball joint tool.
   • Right damper fork bolt
   • Right damper pinch bolt, then separate the damper fork and damper.
   • Radius rod bolts and nut, then the right radius rod.
   • Right and left halfshafts from the differential and the intermediate shaft, using a suitable prytool.
   • Left halfshaft
   • Intermediate shaft from the differential by removing its 3 bearing shaft mounting bolts.
8. Swing the right halfshaft out and wire it up inside the right fender well. Tie plastic bags over the inboard CV-joints to protect the boots and splines from damage.
9. Remove or disconnect the following:
   • Engine stiffener and the clutch cover
   • Intake manifold bracket
   • Rear engine mount bracket
   • 3 rear engine mount bracket mounting bolts, then discard.
10. Place a transaxle jack under the transaxle. Raise the transaxle just enough to take the weight off the mounts. NOTE: A chain hoist may be attached the transaxle lifting hooks to steady it and aid in lowering it from the vehicle.
11. Remove or disconnect the following:
    • Transaxle housing mounting bolt on the engine side
    • Transaxle mount bolt and loosen the mount bracket nuts.
    • 3 transaxle housing mounting bolts, then the transaxle from the vehicle.

To Install:
NOTE: Use new self-locking nuts when assembling the front suspension. Install new set rings onto the inboard CV-joints. Use new self-locking bolts when installing transaxle rear mount bracket (the bolts are color coded by type).

1. Be sure the 2 dowel pins are installed into the transaxle case.
2. Apply heavy duty high temperature grease (use Honda part No. 08798-9002) to the release bearing, mainshaft splines, and the release fork pawls. Install the release fork and release bearing.
3. Raise the transaxle into position.
4. Install or connect the following:
   • 3 lower transaxle case bolts and tighten to 47 ft. lbs. (65 Nm).
   • Transaxle mount and mount bracket
   • Through-bolt and tighten temporarily. Be sure the engine is level and tighten the 3 mount bracket nuts to 40 ft. lbs. (55 Nm). Tighten the through-bolt to 47 ft. lbs. (65 Nm).
   • Upper transaxle case bolts on the engine side and tighten to 47 ft. lbs. (65 Nm).
   • 3 new rear engine bracket mounting bolts and tighten to 40 ft. lbs. (55 Nm).
   • Intake manifold bracket and tighten the bolts to 16 ft. lbs. (22 Nm).
   • Clutch cover and tighten the bolts to 108 inch lbs. (12 Nm).
   • Subframe center beam with new self-locking bolts. Evenly tighten the bolts to 37 ft. lbs. (50 Nm).
   • Engine stiffener plate, if equipped. Loosely install the mounting bolts. Tighten the stiffener-to-transaxle case mounting bolt to 28 ft. lbs. (39 Nm), then tighten the 2 stiffener-to-engine block mounting bolts to 28 ft. lbs. (39 Nm) beginning with the bolt closest to the transaxle.
   • Radius rod and the damper fork. Hand-tighten all the fasteners.
   • Intermediate shaft and tighten its mounting bolts to 28 ft. lbs. (39 Nm).
   • New set ring on the end of each halfshaft.
   • Right and left halfshafts. Turn the right and left steering knuckle fully outward and slide the axle into the differential, until the set ring is felt engaging the differential side gear.
   • Lower control arm ball joints. Tighten the castle nuts to 40 ft. lbs. (50 Nm). Then, tighten them only enough to install a new cotter pin.
   • Clutch damper and tighten its mounting bolts to 16 ft. lbs. (22 Nm).
   • Front wheels.
5. Lower the vehicle.
6. Place a floor jack under the right front knuckle, and raise the jack until it is supporting the vehicle's weight.

Matt I never knew you were rocking an auto.

Bored myself tonight. Gonna go downstairs and flirt with the waitresses in the hotel restaurant. Makes me feel young again.

TIPPMANN

LOL, young again.

Yep, rockin the auto, I may do the swap if this one craps out on me. Just depends on how long this one lasts and my finances at the time. A rebuild and a TCI kit could be the same as a manual, I don't know...

Today is payday, they ****ed up!

I have direct deposit, so I checked it this morning and they put a 0 at the end of the check!

So instead of $904.72 , I got $9047.20! **** an A man...
I already called a friend that works at the bank, that will not say anything. She said that as long as the money is there for 90 consecutive days IT IS MINE TO KEEP. The kicker is don't touch it for 90 days. So I am just crossing my fingers.

Best be checking the terms of your employment Matt. The Army does this all the time. Sure they can't touch the money that is already in your bank, however when the payroll department does one of their regular audits and discover the error, they can legally not pay you for the next 9 or 10 pay periods until everything is even. You're better off reporting it.
