2. CAUTION: Do not use metal scrapers, wire brushes, power abrasive discs or other abrasive means to clean the sealing surfaces. These tools
cause scratches and gouges which make leak paths. Use a plastic scraping tool to remove all traces of old sealant.
NOTE: If the valve cover is not secured within four minutes, the sealant must be removed and the sealing area cleaned. To clean the sealing area,
use silicone gasket remover and metal surface prep. Follow the directions on the packaging. Failure to follow this procedure can cause future oil
leakage.
Apply the silicone gasket and sealant in two places where the engine front cover meets the cylinder head.
3. Position the valve cover on the cylinder head and loosely install the valve cover bolts.
