Repair Procedures: Installation

  1. Install the oil pan.
    1. Using a razor blade and gasket scraper, remove all the old packing material from the gasket surfaces.
      NOTE: Check that the mating surfaces are clean and dry before applying liquid gasket.
    2. Apply liquid gasket as an even bead, centered between the edges of the mating surface.

      Liquid Gasket:  TB 1217H or LOCTITE 5900H

      NOTE:
      • To prevent leakage of oil, apply liquid gasket to the inner threads of the bolt holes.
      • Do not install the parts if five minutes or more have elapsed since applying the liquid gasket. Instead, reapply liquid gasket after removing the residue.
      • After assembly, wait at least 30 minutes before filling the engine with oil.
    3. Install the oil pan (A) with the bolts.

      Uniformly tighten the bolts in several passes.

      Tightening Torque: 

      9.8 ~ 11.8 N.m (1.0 ~ 1.2 kgf.m, 7.2 ~ 8.7 lb-ft)
