Repair Procedures: Installation: Notes

NOTE:

Thoroughly clean all parts to be assembled.
Always use a new head and manifold gasket.
The cylinder head gasket is a metal gasket. Take care not to bend it.
Rotate the crankshaft, set the No. 1 piston at TDC.

Install the cylinder head gasket (A).
1. The sealant locations on cylinder head gasket, cylinder block and timing chain lower case must be free of engine oil and etc.
2. Before assembling the cylinder head gasket, the liquid sealant LT5900H or equivalent should be applied on the gap between cylinder block and timing chain lower case.
  The part must be assembled within 5 minutes after sealant was applied.
  
  NOTE: Refer to below illustration to apply the sealant.
  
  Bead width:
  
  3.5 ~ 4.5 mm (0.1378 ~ 0.1772 in)
  
  Sealant locations:
  
  1.5 ~ 2.5mm (0.0591 ~ 0.0984 in)
  
  from timing chain lower case inner surface
  
  Recommended sealant: Liquid sealant LT5900H or equivalent

Install the cylinder head bolts.
1. Do not apply engine oil on the cylinder head bolts.
2. Using SST(09221-4A000), install and tighten the cylinder head bolts and plate washers, in several passes, in the sequence shown.
  Tightening torque:
  
  Cylinder head bolts (1~10):
  
  32.4~36.3N.m(3.3~ 3.7kgf.m, 23.9~26.8lb-ft) +
  
  88°~92°+ 118°~122°
  
  Flange bolts (11~12):
  
  33.3 ~ 36.3N.m(3.4 ~ 3.7kgf.m, 24.6 ~ 26.8lb-ft)
  
  NOTE: Always use new cylinder head bolts.
