  A: You must use j 28467-a (Universal Support Fixture) and j 41044 (Engine Support Adapters) for supporting the engine when replacing the mount since these items provide safety by preventing contact with the Oil Pan or crankshaft balancer. Start by detaching the generator together with Ignition Control Module and proceed to lift the vehicle for support. First, take out the 3-way Catalytic Converter after that detach the right side Engine Mount through bolt nut followed by the left side Engine Mount through bolt nut . The engine support fixture needs installation onto the engine before lifting the engine slightly for through bolt relaxation. Start by removing the transmission oil cooler pipe bracket bolt along with its bracket then seize the air conditioning compressor bolts and rear bolts (2,3). To access the Engine Mount through bolt the A/C Compressor needs to be moved forward with the right Engine Mount through bolt and left Engine Mount through bolt afterward being taken out. The procedure starts with engine lifting until engineers can access the engine mounts and brackets alongside the right Engine Mount bolts followed by removal of the right Engine Mount. The process concludes by removing the left Engine Mount bolts and left Engine Mount. Disconnect and remove the right Engine Mount Bracket bolts (1, 2) combined with the right Engine Mount Bracket . Additionally remove the positive cable from the Engine Mount stud followed by removing the battery positive cable nut , harness clamp and the rf (Radio Frequency) ground strap. The team must uninstall both left Engine Mount Bracket bolts and left Engine Mount Bracket stud and Engine Mount Bracket . Send the maintenance person to inspect for damages of the rubber Engine Mount components. The first step for installation involves attaching the left Engine Mount Bracket and stud to the engine block then tightening both left Engine Mount Bracket bolts to 100 nm (74 ft. Lbs.) while fastening the stud to 87 nm (64 ft. Lbs.). Use the discussed methodology to fasten the battery positive cable to the Engine Mount Bracket stud while also installing the rf ground strap and harness clamp before securing the cable nut with 25 nm torque (18 ft. Lbs.). The right Engine Mount Bracket and bolts (1, 2) must be placed on the engine block and bolt tightened to 50 nm (37 ft. Lbs.) followed by the two Engine Mount Bracket bolts tightened to 100 nm (74 ft. Lbs.). Begin installation of the left Engine Mount and bolts to the crossmember before tightening each bolt to 58 nm (43 ft. Lbs.). The right Engine Mount and its bolts also go to the crossmember while being secured with a torque specification of 58 nm (43 ft. Lbs.). Lower the engine until the mount brackets and holes create alignment and remove the engine support fixture. Install the left Engine Mount through bolt as well as the right Engine Mount through bolt. Secure the air conditioning compressor rearward to the bracket by tightening bolt (2, 3) to 30 nm (22 ft. Lbs.) before tightening the air conditioning compressor bolts to 50 nm (37 ft. Lbs.). Connect the transmission oil cooler pipe bracket to its bolt while applying torque of 17 nm (13 ft. Lbs.). First install the left side Engine Mount through bolt nut while tightening the bolt to 80 nm (59 ft. Lbs.) before installing the right side Engine Mount through bolt nut at 80 nm (59 ft. Lbs.). The 3-way Catalytic Converter goes back into place with completion of lowering the vehicle and generator then Ignition Control Module reinstall.
