3. Apply liquid gasket (P/N 08717-0004, 08718-0003, 08718-0004, or 08718-0009) to the oil pan mating surface of the engine block and to the
inside edge of the threaded bolt holes. Install the component within 5 minutes of applying the liquid gasket.
NOTE:

-
If too much time has passed after applying the liquid gasket, remove the old liquid gasket and residue, then reapply the new liquid gasket.

Do not run the engine for at least 3 hours after installing the oil pan.
