FASTENER INFORMATION

Most of the fasteners used for this vehicle are metric fasteners.

When replacing any fasteners, it is most important that replacement

fasteners be the correct diameter, thread pitch and strength.

Note that both ISO and JIS type bolts and nuts are used for

the engine assembly and related parts. Even when the diam-

eter of the thread is the same, its pitch may vary between

these two types. Installing a mismatched bolt or nut will

cause damage to the thread. As the first step, make sure to

tighten it by hand temporarily and if it feels tight, check the

thread pitch for correct matching.
