REASSEMBLY

HINT:
^ Thoroughly clean all parts to be assembled.
^ Before installing the parts, apply fresh engine oil to all sliding and rotating surfaces.
^ Replace oil seals with new ones.

1. INSTALL WATER HOSE UNIONS

HINT: When using a new cylinder head, water hose unions must be installed.





a. Mark the standard position away from the edge, onto the water hose union.





b. Apply adhesive to the water hose union hole of the cylinder head.
Adhesive:
Part No.0883-00070, THREE BOND 1324 or equivalent
