4.2L Engine

1. Disconnect the negative battery cable.

2. Disconnect the positive battery cable.

|NOTE |

|In order to get to the starter assembly the intake manifold must be removed. Refer to the procedure for removing the intake |

|manifold. |

3. Reposition the front bank spark plug wires.

4. Remove the air intake duct from the throttle body.

5. Detach the electrical connectors for the intake manifold, Throttle Position (TP) sensor, and Idle Speed Control (ISC) motor, Evaporative Emission (EVAP) Control solenoid and Cruise Control Servo.

6. Disconnect the vacuum hoses at the brake vacuum booster, fuel pipe bundle and to the body.

7. Disconnect the PCV hoses at the intake manifold.

8. Unhook the accelerator cable at the throttle body and position it out of the way.

9. Relieve the fuel system pressure. Disconnect the fuel pipe quick connects at the fuel pipe bundle in the engine compartment.

10. Remove the EVAP solenoid bracket at the rear (or right) cam cover.

11. Reposition the transaxle range control cable away from the cruise control servo.

12. Disconnect the coolant hoses at the throttle body and to the coolant reservoir and plug the hoses. Wrap a shop towel around the hoses when disconnecting to avoid spillage.

13. Remove the four intake manifold bolts and lift the intake manifold with the throttle body out of the engine compartment.

14. Unbolt the solenoid 'S' terminal nut and battery cable nut. Remove the starter motor mounting bolts, and lift the starter motor out of the manifold cavity.

To install:

|NOTE |

|Before installing the starter motor to the engine, tighten inner nuts on the solenoid terminals to be sure they are secure in the |

|cap. Tighten the inner nuts on the battery terminal and motor terminal to 71 inch lbs. (8 Nm). If the nuts are not properly |

|tightened, the starter may fail later due to the terminal or cap damage. |

15. Install the solenoid switch lead, and tighten the nut to 22 inch lbs. (2.5 Nm).

16. Install the battery cable nut and tighten to 71 inch lbs. (8 Nm).

17. Install the starter motor and tighten the mounting bolts to 22 ft. lbs. (30 Nm).

18. Install the intake manifold with the throttle body onto the engine and install the four bolts. The four intake manifold bolts must be tightend in a specific sequence to 71 inch lbs. (8 Nm), then an additional 120°.

19. Connect the coolant hoses at the throttle body and at the coolant reservoir. Add coolant as needed.

20. Position the transaxle range control cable to the cruise control bracket.

21. Fasten the EVAP solenoid bracket to the rear cam cover.

22. Reconnect the fuel pipes quick connects at the fuel pipe bundle in the engine compartment.

23. Hook the accelerator cable up at the throttle body.

24. Connect the vacuum hoses at the brake vacuum booster, fuel pipe bundle and to the body. Install the PCV hose at the intake manifold.

25. Install the electrical connectors for the intake manifold, the TP sensor ISC motor, EVAP solenoid and the cruise control servo.

26. Install the air intake duct to the throttle body.

27. Reposition the front bank spark plug wires.

28. Connect the negative battery cable.

29. Connect the positive battery cable.
