LIQUID GASKET APPLICATION PROCEDURE

1. Remove old liquid gasket adhering to the liquid gasket application surface and the mating surface.
• Remove liquid gasket completely from the liquid gasket application surface, mounting bolts, and bolt
holes.
2. Wipe the liquid gasket application surface and the mating surface with white gasoline (lighting and heating
use) to remove adhering moisture, grease and foreign materials.
3. Apply liquid gasket to the liquid gasket application surface.
Use Genuine liquid gasket or equivalent.
• Within five minutes of liquid gasket application, install the mating component.
• If liquid gasket protrudes, wipe it off immediately.
• Do not retighten mounting bolts or nuts after the installation.
• After 30 minutes or more have passed from the installation, fill engine oil and engine coolant.

NOTE:
Before starting engine, put vehicle horizontally and check the engine oil level. If engine is already started, stop
it and allow 10 minutes before checking.
1. Pull out oil level gauge and wipe it clean.
2. Insert oil level gauge and make sure the engine oil level is within
the range (A) shown in the figure.
3. If it is out of range, adjust it.

ENGINE OIL APPEARANCE

• Check engine oil for white turbidity or heavy contamination.
• If engine oil becomes turbid and white, it is highly probable that it is contaminated with engine coolant.
Repair or replace damaged parts.
ENGINE OIL LEAKAGE
Check for engine oil leakage around the following area.
• Oil pan (upper and lower)
• Oil pan drain plug
• Oil pressure switch
• Oil level sensor
• Oil filter
• Intake valve timing control solenoid valve
• Front cover
• Mating surface between cylinder head and camshaft bracket

• Crankshaft oil seals (front and rear)
• Oil filter (for intake valve timing control)
OIL PRESSURE CHECK
WARNING:
• Be careful not to get burned, as engine oil may be hot.
• When checking engine oil pressure, shift position should be “Neutral”, and apply parking brake
securely.
1. Check engine oil level. Refer to LU-6, "Inspection".

REMOVAL OF LIQUID GASKET

• After removing the mounting bolts and nuts, separate the mating C
surface using a seal cutter and remove the liquid gasket.
CAUTION:
Be careful not to damage the mating surfaces.
• In areas where the cutter is difficult to use, use a plastic hammer to D
lightly tap the gasket applied area.
CAUTION:
If for some unavoidable reason a tool such as a flat-bladed E
screwdriver is used, be careful not to damage the mating sur-
faces.

LIQUID GASKET APPLICATION PROCEDURE
1. Using a scraper, remove the old liquid gasket adhering to the
gasket application surface and the mating surface. G
• Remove the liquid gasket completely from the groove of the
gasket application surface, mounting bolts and bolt holes.
2. Wipe the gasket application surface and the mating surface with H
white gasoline (lighting and heating use) to remove adhering
moisture, grease and foreign materials.
3. Attach the liquid gasket to the tube presser. I
Use Genuine Liquid Gasket or equivalent.

• As for the bolt holes, normally apply the gasket inside the N
holes. If specified, it should be applied outside the holes. Make
sure to read the instruction in this manual.
• Within five minutes of gasket application, install the mating O
component.
• If the liquid gasket protrudes, wipe it off immediately.
• Do not retighten after the installation.
• After 30 minutes or more have passed from the installation, fill P
the engine oil and coolant.
