ENGINE INSPECTION AND REPAIR
NOTE:
Before
washing
the
cylinder
head
and
block,
check
them
for indications of water leaks, gas leaks, damage or cracks.
Before checking,
wash
each
part
to
remove any adhered
foreign
matter (pieces of gasket, dust, oil, carbon, scale, etc.)
Since the cylinder head, cylinder head cover, timing chain cover
and other engine parts are made of aluminum, handle them carefully
to ensure against damage.
Do not use cleaning solutions that will be harmful to the alumi-
num.
