cause scratches and gouges, which make leak paths. Use a plastic scraping tool to remove all traces of old sealant. Failure to follow this
procedure may cause future oil leakage.
Inspect the oil pan. Clean the mating surface for the oil pan with silicone gasket remover and metal surface prep. Follow the directions on the
packaging.
2. Install a new O-ring seal onto the oil pump screen and pickup tube.
