Installation

CAUTION:Do not use metal scrapers, wire brushes or power abrasive discs or other abrasive means to clean the sealing surfaces. These tools cause scratches and gouges, which make leak paths. Use a plastic scraping tool to remove traces of sealant.
1. Clean and inspect all mating surfaces.






NOTE:If the oil pan is not secured within 4 minutes of sealant application, the sealant must be removed and the sealant area cleaned with metal surface cleaner. Allow to dry until there is no sign of wetness, or 4 minutes, whichever is longer. Failure to follow this procedure can cause future oil leakage.
2. Apply a 2.5 mm (0.09 in) bead of silicone gasket and sealant to the oil pan.

3. Position the oil pan and install the 2 rear oil pan bolts finger-tight.






4. Using a suitable straightedge, align the front surface of the oil pan flush with the front surface of the engine block.
