2.
If no groundouts are found, remove air compressor and place Mastic Appliques (XL1Z-3C244-AA and XL1Z-3C245-AA) on sheet metal under
air suspension compressor at A and B in Figure 2. Place appliques as follows:
a.
Accurately place mastic onto sheet metal in a location that will not allow the cutouts for the mounting bolt to interfere with the mounting
bracket. The air suspension compressor mounting bracket and the washer bottle reservoir should have complete contact with the sheet metal,
and not the mastic, at the body mounting points.
CAUTION
BE SURE TO WEAR PROTECTIVE GLOVES WHEN CONFORMING THE MASTIC TO PREVENT FINGER BURNS.
b.
Using a heat gun, uniformly heat the mastic and apply pressure to form the mastic to the sheet metal surface.
