^
After degreasing with white gasoline or the like, check that there is no oil on the surface where the sealant is applied.
^
After degreasing with white gasoline or the like, never touch the degreased area with fingers.
1. Remove sealant from the timing chain case assembly and the timing chain case assembly mounting surface of the cylinder block and the cylinder
head, and degrease the surface where the sealant is applied by white gasoline or the like.
2. Remove all the sealant adhering to the gasket between the cylinder head and cylinder block (three-surface aligned part.) Then, degrease the
surfaces with the white gasoline or the like.
3. As for the three-surface aligned part that is indicated in Step 2 above, the engine oil oozes from the cylinder head gasket. Thus, quickly apply the
sealant to it after degreasing.
4. Apply a bead of the sealant to the timing chain case assembly mounting surface. The bead diameter should be 2.5 ± 0.5 mm (0.1 ± 0.02 inch.)
Overlap the part "A" with the diameter of 4.5 ± 0.5 mm (0.18 ± 0.02 inch) or 2.5 ± 0.5 mm (0.1 ± 0.02 inch) as shown in the figure, and apply the
sealant.
Specified sealant: Three bond 1217G
CAUTION
^
If the sealant contacts any other part during installation of the timing chain case assembly, apply sealant again before installing the
timing chain case assembly.
^
After the installation, until a sufficient period of time (one hour or more) elapses, do not apply the oil or water to the sealant application
area or start the engine.
5. Install the timing chain case assembly to the cylinder block and cylinder head so that the sealant does not contact other parts.
NOTE: Install the timing chain case assembly within 3 minutes after the application of sealant.
