## Drive Plate Installation Note

  Caution

  • If the bolts are reused, remove the oil sealant from the bolt threads. Tightening a bolt that has old sealant on it can cause thread damage.

1. Remove the sealant from the bolt holes in the crankshaft and from the drive plate mounting bolts.

  Note

  • If all the previous sealant cannot be removed from a bolt, replace the bolts.
  • Do not apply sealant if new bolts are used.

2. Install the drive plate.

3. Install the adapter.

4. Apply sealant to the drive plate mounting bolts and install them.

5. Set the SST or equivalent against the drive plate.

  Caution

  • When installing sealant covered bolts, tighten them immediately. Leaving these bolts in a half installed condition could cause them to be stuck that way, due to the natural hardening of the sealant.

6. Tighten the drive plate mounting bolts in two or three steps in the order as shown in the figure.

  Tightening torque
  96.1-103 N·m

7. Install the transaxle. (See AUTOMATIC TRANSAXLE REMOVAL/INSTALLATION [Z6].) (See AUTOMATIC TRANSAXLE REMOVAL/INSTALLATION [LF].)
