Valve Rocker Arm Cover Replacement Right

Caution: Unless directed otherwise, the ignition and start switch must be in the OFF or LOCK position, and all electrical loads must be OFF before servicing any electrical component. Disconnect the negative battery cable to prevent an electrical spark should a tool or equipment come in contact with an exposed electrical terminal. Failure to follow these precautions may result in personal injury and/or damage to the vehicle or its components.

1. Disconnect the negative battery cable.
2. Remove the right hand fuel rail cover.



3. Remove the secondary air injection (AIR) hose from the exhaust manifold using the following steps:

•	Remove the bolts.

•	Remove the pipe.

•	Remove the gasket.

4. Disconnect the AIR hose from the check valve.



5. Remove the PCV hoses from the breather pipes in valve rocker arm cover.



6. Remove the spark plug wires from the ignition coils.
7. Disconnect the ignition coil main wire harness connector.



8. Remove the valve rocker arm cover. Refer to Valve Rocker Arm Cover Removal (Right Side) .

1. Install the valve rocker arm cover. Refer to Valve Rocker Arm Cover Installation (Right Side) .



2. Install the spark plug wires to the coils.
3. Connect the ignition coil main wire harness connector.



4. Connect the PCV hoses to the breather pipes in valve rocker arm cover.

Notice: Use the correct fastener in the correct location. Replacement fasteners must be the correct part number for that application. Fasteners requiring replacement or fasteners requiring the use of thread locking compound or sealant are identified in the service procedure. Do not use paints, lubricants, or corrosion inhibitors on fasteners or fastener joint surfaces unless specified. These coatings affect fastener torque and joint clamping force and may damage the fastener. Use the correct tightening sequence and specifications when installing fasteners in order to avoid damage to parts and systems.




5. Install the AIR pipe to the exhaust manifold using the following steps:

•	Install the gasket.

•	Install the pipe.

•	Install the bolts.

Tighten
Tighten the bolt to 20 N·m (15 lb ft).

6. Connect the AIR hose to the check valve.



7. Install the fuel rail cover.
8. Connect the negative battery cable.

Tighten
Tighten the negative battery cable bolt to 15 N·m (11 lb ft).

9. Program the Transmitters. Refer to Transmitter Programming/Synchronization in Keyless Entry.
