22)Support transaxle with transmission jack.
23)Remove gear shift & select shaft assembly.
24)Remove bolts and nuts fastening engine and transaxle and then detach transaxle from engine.
Remounting
Reverse dismounting procedure noting the following points.
NOTICE:
Failure to take proper precautions when remounting the manual transaxle can cause damage to parts.
•When installing the transaxle, be careful not to let the drive shaft scratch the oil seal.
Oil leakage may occur if the oil seal lip is scratched by the drive shaft.
•Do not use a hammer when installing the drive shaft joint into the differential gear.
Hitting the drive shaft joint with a hammer will damage the joint.
•HO2S-2 harness will be damaged if it is pinched between manual transaxle and other parts such as catalytic converter or HO2S-2 sensor itself.
Check that the HO2S-2 harness is not pinched or hooked when installing the manual transaxle

•Add transaxle oil.
•Bleed clutch system.
•Check function of engine, clutch and transaxle.
•Check that there is no oil leakage and fluid leakage at each connection.
•Check front wheel alignment.
