Slide locking tab (8) into the unlocked position. Disconnect harness assembly (7). Slide the connection for harness assembly (7) from bracket (9) .
Loosen V-band clamp (2). Support the exhaust back pressure valve (1). Reposition the V-band clamp in order to allow removal of the back pressure valve.Note: If the V-band clamp remains tight on the flanges, apply releasing fluid on the V-band clamp in order to assist removal. Lightly tap the bolts on the V-band clamp with a soft faced hammer in order to assist removal. Do not use a prybar to remove the V-band clamp.
Make temporary marks on the exhaust back pressure valve (1) and exhaust back pressure valve adaptor (3) to aid realignment. Remove the exhaust back pressure valve.
If necessary, follow Step 4.a through Step 4.d in order to remove adaptor (3) .
Make temporary marks on the back pressure valve adaptor and the turbocharger to ensure the correct orientation during installation.
