CYLINDER HEAD GASKET INSTALLATION
CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT
Always be sure to check the tightening torque.
If the pressure lines are leaking after installation, they must be replaced.
Do not overtighten the pressure lines.
PROCEDURE
SELECT CYLINDER HEAD GASKET
Check the piston protrusions for each cylinder.
Clean the cylinder block with solvent.
Set the piston of the cylinder to be measured to slightly before TDC.
-
Using SST, place a dial indicator on the cylinder block and set the measuring tip as shown in the illustration.

Protrusion
Set the dial indicator at 0 mm (0 in.).
Tip:Make sure that the measuring tip is perpendicular to the cylinder head gasket surface and piston head when taking the measurements.
Find where the piston head protrudes most by slowly turning the crankshaft clockwise and counterclockwise.
Measure each cylinder at 2 places for a total of 8 measurements.
For the piston protrusion value of each cylinder, use the average of the 2 measurements of each cylinder.
Standard piston protrusion
0.420 to 0.680 mm (0.0165 to 0.0267 in.)
If the protrusion is not as specified, remove the piston sub-assembly and connecting rod sub-assembly and reinstall them.
-
Select a new cylinder head gasket.

INSTALL CYLINDER HEAD GASKET
Place the cylinder head gasket in position on the cylinder block.
INSTALL CYLINDER HEAD SUB-ASSEMBLY
Note:Do not reuse the cylinder head bolts.
-
Make sure the ring pin shown in the illustration is not loose, deformed or otherwise damaged.
Place the cylinder head sub-assembly on the cylinder head gasket.
Note:Be careful of the installation direction.
-
Using an E10 "TORX" socket wrench, temporarily install the 5 bolts.
Apply a light coat of engine oil to under the heads of the new cylinder head bolts.
Note:Do not reuse the cylinder head bolts.
Temporarily install the new cylinder head bolts.
