Installation Precautions


The sealing surfaces of the mating parts must be cleaned with a chlorinated solvent, such as carburetor spray cleaner, brake cleaner or alcohol Saturn P/N 21007432 (or equivalent) and Scotch-Brite pads. Cleanliness of mating parts is very important. All materials (nylon, sheet metal, cast iron and aluminum) are equally susceptible to leaks if the surface has grease and oil contaminants. Surfaces must be kept as clean as possible when assembling with RTV.
