Reassembly
NOTE: Make sure engine is assembled using all
specifi ed torque values, tightening sequences,
and clearances. Failure to observe specifi cations
could cause severe engine wear or damage.
Always use new gaskets.
Make sure all traces of any cleaner are removed before
engine is assembled and placed into operation. Even
small amounts of these cleaners can quickly break down
lubricating properties of engine oil.
Check oil pan, crankcase, cylinder heads, and valve
covers to be certain all old sealing material has been
removed. Use gasket remover, lacquer thinner, or paint
remover to remove any remaining traces. Clean surfaces
with isopropyl alcohol, acetone, lacquer thinner, or
electrical contact cleaner.
