–  Move clear air hoses at bracket -2-. –  Pull off bracket for fuel lines upwards -arrow- and move clear to one side. –  Unplug electrical connector -3-. –  Remove bolts -1-, detach bracket and move clear to one side.

–  Loosen bolt -1-. –  Remove bolt -2- and nut -3-. –  Detach hose retainer -4- from fuel filter, move fuel filter -7- clear to one side with fuel hoses -5- and -6- connected.

–  Remove air cleaner housing → Rep. gr.23.

–  Remove battery → Electrical system; Rep. gr.27.

–  Set up support bracket -10 - 222 A- with adapters -10 - 222 A /3- on bolted flanges of wing panels. –  Attach hooks of spindles to engine lifting eyes. –  Take up weight of engine/gearbox assembly evenly with both spindles (do not raise assembly).

–  Remove bolts -arrows- for engine mounting one by one and renew (if they were not renewed when installing engine). –  Initially fit bolts hand-tight.

Vehicles with manual gearbox: –  Remove bolts -arrows- securing gearbox mounting.

Vehicles with 7-speed dual clutch gearbox 0AM: –  Remove bolts -arrows- securing gearbox mounting. All vehicles (continued): –  Renew bolts for gearbox mounting (if not already done when installing engine) and initially fit bolts hand-tight. –  Slacken bolts on left and right-hand support arms by about two turns each.

–  Using assembly lever, adjust engine/gearbox assembly between engine mounting and support arm -1- until specifications listed below are attained: l  There must be a distance of -a- = 13.5 mm between engine support -2- and longitudinal member (right-side). l  The side of the engine support casting -2- must be aligned parallel to the support arm -1- (distance -x- is the same on both sides).   Note Distance -a- = 13.5 mm can also be checked with a metal rod of suitable size, or similar.

–  Tighten bolts for engine mounting Vehicles with manual gearbox: –  Ensure that the edges of the support arm -2- (on the gearbox assembly mounting) and gearbox support -1- are parallel. l  Dimension -x- must be identical on both sides of mounting.

Vehicles with 7-speed dual clutch gearbox 0AM: –  Ensure that the edges of the support arm -2- (on the gearbox assembly mounting) and gearbox support -1- are parallel. l  Dimension -x- must be identical on both sides. All vehicles (continued): –  Tighten bolts for gearbox mounting. Installation is carried out in the reverse order; note the following: –  Install intake connecting pipe → Chapter. –  Install battery mounting and battery → Electrical system; Rep. gr.27. –  Install air cleaner housing → Rep. gr.23. –  Install fuel filter → Rep. gr.20. –  Install pressure differential sender -G505- → Rep. gr.23. –  Install filler pipe with filler neck for washer fluid reservoir → Electrical system; Rep. gr.92.
