Installing   Note! t  Note the use by date of the sealant. t  Sump must be installed within 5 minutes of applying silicone sealing compound.

–  Cut-off tube nozzle at forward marking (nozzle approx. 3 mm Ø). –  Apply silicone sealing compound, as shown, to clean sump sealing surface. Sealing compound bead must be: t  2 … 3 mm thick t  and run on inside of bolt holes -arrows-.   Note! The sealing compound bead must not be thicker, otherwise excess sealing compound will enter the sump and may block the oil suction pipe strainer.

–  Apply silicone sealing bead as shown to the clean sealing surface of the sump. (The illustration shows the position of the sealant bead on the cylinder block). –  Fit sump immediately and tighten the bolts as follows: 1 -  Tighten all sump/cylinder block bolts only very lightly using cross-over sequence. 2 -  Tighten the three sump/gearbox bolts lightly. 3 -  Retighten all sump/cylinder block bolts lightly using cross-over sequence. 4 -  Tighten the three sump/gearbox bolts to 40 Nm. 5 -  Tighten all sump/cylinder block bolts to 15 Nm using cross-over sequence.   Note! t  When installing an oil sump to an engine which is not joined to the gearbox, ensure the sump is flush with the cylinder block at the flywheel end. t  After installing a sump, the sealant must be allowed to harden for approx. 30 minutes. Only then may the engine be filled with engine oil. –  Tighten the oil return pipe bolts to the sump to 10 Nm. The rest of the assembly is basically a reverse of the dismantling sequence.
