Installation
Clean the mating surfaces with DECAPJOINT to dissolve adhering gasket residue.
Apply the compound to the surface to be cleaned, wait about ten minutes, then remove the excess with a wooden spatula.
Attention! Mounting surfaces must be clean, dry and free of oil (leave no fingerprints).
Attention! If too much sealant is applied, then when the fastening bolts are tightened, its excess will be squeezed out. The ingress of sealant into working fluids can lead to damage to some components and assemblies (engine, radiator, etc.).
Pic. 2.32. Places for applying silicone sealant
Apply four dots of silicone sealant with a diameter of 5 mm, in the places indicated by the arrows in Figure 2.32.
Pic. 2.33. Places for applying silicone sealant to the interface of the front cover
Apply two drops of silicone sealant with a diameter of 7 mm to the mating of the front cover with the cylinder block (pic. 2.33).
Install the oil separator on the cylinder block.
Pic. 2.34. Checking the installation of the engine oil pan: 1 - tongues of the oil softener; 2 - pallet grooves
When installing the engine crankcase pan, check that the tongues of the oil separator fit into the grooves of the pan (pic. 2.34).
The planes of the cylinder block and the sump on the flywheel side are aligned to prevent deformation of the clutch housing.
