Tech Tips
If the free length is less than the minimum, replace the compression spring.
Install the gasket.
Fully insert a new gasket to the exhaust manifold by hand.
Using a wooden block, uniformly strike the gasket so that the gasket and exhaust manifold are properly fit.
Note
Be careful with the installation direction of the gasket.
Do not reuse the gasket.
Do not damage the gasket.
To ensure a proper seal, do not use the exhaust pipe assembly front to force the gasket onto the front exhaust manifold.
Connect the exhaust pipe support, and install the exhaust pipe assembly front with the 4 bolts, 2 compression springs and 2 nuts.
Note
After installation, check that the clearance is almost same at any point between the flanges of the exhaust manifold and exhaust pipe assembly front.
