    1. B000VUTC01
      *a Lot No.
      B000TT4 Engine Front

      Place a new cylinder head gasket on the cylinder block sub-assembly with the Lot No. stamp facing upward.

      Note


      • Be sure to place the gasket in the correct orientation.

      • Gently lower the cylinder head sub-assembly in order not to damage the cylinder head gasket with the bottom of the cylinder head sub-assembly.

  3. INSTALL CYLINDER HEAD SUB-ASSEMBLY

    Tech Tips

    Perform "Inspection After Repairs" after replacing the cylinder head sub-assembly.



    1. Place the cylinder head sub-assembly on the cylinder block sub-assembly.

      Note


      • Clean all contact surfaces.

      • Inspect and clean each cylinder head set bolt and bolt hole.

      • Gently place the cylinder head sub-assembly in order not to damage the cylinder head gasket with the bottom part of the cylinder head sub-assembly.

    2. Apply a light coat of engine oil to the threads and under the heads of the cylinder head set bolts.

      Tech Tips

      The cylinder head set bolts are tightened in 3 progressive steps.

    3. Step 1:
