Installing

Note

t	Observe expiry date of sealing compound.

t	The sump must be installed within 5 minutes of applying silicone sealing compound.

–	Cut off tube nozzle at forward marking (approx. 3 mm nozzle Ø).

–	Apply silicone sealing compound, as shown, to clean sealing surface on sump. Sealant bead must be:

t	2 ... 3 mm thick.

t	Run bead along inner side of bolt holes -arrows-.

Note

The sealant bead must not be thicker, otherwise excess sealing compound will enter the oil sump and may block the oil suction line strainer.

–	Apply silicone sealing compound bead as shown to the clean sealing surface of the sump. (The figure shows the position of the sealant bead on the cylinder block.)

–	Install sump immediately and tighten all sump bolts lightly.

Note

The sump must be flush with cylinder block.

–	Tighten oil sump bolts to 15 Nm.

–	Tighten bolts securing sump to gearbox to 40 Nm.

Note

Let sealing compound dry for approx. 30 minutes after installing oil sump. Only then fill with engine oil.

Further assembly is basically the reverse of the dismantling sequence.
