3. Drain the cooling system.
4. Drain the engine oil.
5. Remove or disconnect the following:
   
   
   The battery and battery tray

   The throttle and cruise control cables

   The Powertrain Control Module (PCM) wiring harness

   The positive cable from the Power Distribution Center (PDC) and ground wire

   The ground wire from the body to the engine

   The brake booster vacuum hose

   The proportional purge hoses from the intake manifold

   The coolant recovery hose

   The heater hoses

   The upper radiator support crossmember

   The upper and lower radiator hoses

   The A/C line from the condenser

   The A/C lines from the junction at the upper torque strut

   The cooler lines, if equipped

   The fan cooling module assembly

   The transaxle shift linkage and electrical connectors

   The clutch hydraulic lines, if equipped

   The power steering hoses from the radiator on turbo models

   The radiator fan, radiator and condenser on 2003-06 models

   Both front wheels and the right inner splash shield

   The halfshafts

   The accessory drive belts

   The alternator and support brackets

   The charge air cooler hoses on turbo models

   The downstream Oxygen Sensor (O ₂ S)

   The exhaust system from the manifold

   The power steering pressure hose on Non-Turbo models

   The power steering hoses from the steering gear on turbo models

   The lower engine torque strut, if equipped

   The upper and lower heat shields, elbow support bracket, turbocharger support bract and elbow if equipped with a turbocharger

   The structural collar

   The torque converter bolts

   The A/C compressor

   The power steering return line

   The power steering pump
6. Raise the vehicle enough to allow an engine dolly and cradle to be placed under the engine.
7. Loosen the engine support posts in order to allow movement for positioning onto the engine locating holes and flange on the engine bedplate. Lower the vehicle and position the cradle until the engine is resting on the support posts. Tighten the mounts to the cradle frame. This will keep the support posts from moving when removing or installing the engine and transaxle.
8. Install safety straps around the engine to the cradle; tighten the straps and lock them into position.
9. Raise the vehicle enough to see if the straps are tight enough to hold the cradle assembly to the engine.
10. Lower the vehicle so the weight of the engine and transaxle ONLY is on the cradle.
11. Remove the engine and transaxle mount through-bolts.
12. Raise the vehicle slowly, it might be necessary to move the engine/transaxle assembly with the cradle to allow removal around the body flanges.

   The battery cables
9. Perform the camshaft and crankshaft synchronization procedure.
10. Fill the engine with clean oil.
11. Fill the cooling system.
12. Recharge the A/C system.
13. After all components are installed, perform the camshaft and crankshaft timing relearn procedure as follows:
    1. Connect a DRBIII®or equivalent, scan tool to the DLC (located under the instrument panel, near the steering column).
    2. Turn the ignition switch ON , and access the -miscellaneous- screen.
    3. Select -re-learn cam/crank- option and follow the directions on the scan tool screen.
14. Start the vehicle and check for leaks, repair if necessary.
