Oil Pan Installation

Oil Pan

Installation




1. Install the oil pan gasket on the oil pan.




2. Apply liquid gasket to the block mating surfaces, in the shaded areas shown, then install the oil pan.

NOTE:
- Use liquid gasket, part No. 08718 - 0001 or 08718 - 0003.
- Check that the mating surfaces are clean and dry before applying liquid gasket.
- Apply liquid gasket as an even bead, centered between the edges of the mating surface.
- To prevent oil leakage, 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 old residue.
- After assembly, wait at least 30 minutes before filling the engine with oil.




3. Tighten the nuts finger-tight at six points as shown above.
4. Tighten all bolts and nuts, starting from nut (1), clockwise in three steps.

NOTE: Excessive tightening can cause distortion of oil pan gasket and oil leakage.
