Use a razor blade gasket
scraper to clean the cylinder head and cylinder block gasket
surfaces. Do not scratch or gouge any surface. |

Note: Be careful not to
gouge or scratch the gasket surfaces. Do not gouge or scrape the
combustion chamber surfaces. The feel of the gasket surface is
important, not the appearance. There will be indentations from the

is removed. These small indentations will be filled in by the new
gasket.
