First, you need to drain the engine coolant, remove the cooling fan and the shroud, the drive belt, the water pump, the crankshaft balancer, and the power steering pump, and raise the vehicle. Then, please remove the oil pan, lower the vehicle, remove the 7 mm center bolt, loosen and remove the remaining engine front cover bolts, and place 2 of the front cover bolts in the jack screw holes on the front cover and tighten the bolts evenly to release the front cover from the engine. Finally, you should remove the 2 bolts from the front cover, remove the oil pump, and clean and inspect the front cover.
