Oil Pan Installation
Oil Pan Installation1. Remove old liquid gasket from the oil pan mating surfaces, bolts, and bolt holes.
2. Clean and dry the oil pan mating surfaces.
3. Apply liquid gasket, P/N 08718-0009, evenly to the cylinder block mating surface of the oil pan and to the inner threads of the bolt holes.
NOTE: Do not install the parts if 5 minutes or more have elapsed since applying liquid gasket. Instead, reapply liquid gasket after removing old residue.

- 2 Align the reference marks with the center of the sub-frame mounting bolts, then tighten the bolts to the specified torque (see step 6).
- 3 Install the ATF filter mounting bolt (see step 22).
- 4 Tighten the front mount mounting bolt (see step 7).
- 5 Tighten the rear mount mounting bolts (see step 8).
