NOTICE

Keep all parts clean from contaminants.

Contaminants may cause rapid wear and shortened component life.


Note: If the bridge for the cylinder block and/or the timing case have just been installed the engine oil pan must be installed before the sealant has cured.

Note: Ensure that any old sealant is removed from the mating surfaces of the engine oil pan when the sump is installed.

  1. Clean the flange face of the engine oil pan (9) and the flange face of the cylinder block.

    Note: When the joint for the engine oil pan is removed, damage may occur to the existing sealant in the bridge of the cylinder block.

  4. Install the two studs (2) to the engine oil pan (9).

  5. Carefully position the joint (1) over the studs (2). Ensure that the engine oil pan is properly supported while the engine oil pan (9) is installed onto the studs (2). The engine oil pan is heavy.

    Note: New setscrews have sealant on the first 13 mm (0.5 inch) of the threads. In order to reuse the old setscrews, clean the old sealant from the setscrews and apply Tooling (B) to the setscrews.

  6. Install the nuts (3) to the studs (2). Install the setscrews (8) in order to secure the engine oil pan (5) to the cylinder block. Tighten the nuts (3) to a torque of 22 N·m (16 lb ft). Tighten the four setscrews (8) to a torque of 22 N·m (16 lb ft).

  7. Install the remaining setscrews (4) and (7).

  8. Tighten remaining setscrews (3) and (7) to a torque of 22 N·m (16 lb ft).

  9. Install a new O-ring seal (5) and the drain plug (6). Tighten the drain plug (6) to a torque of 34 N·m (25 lb ft).

  10. If necessary, install the seal and the tube assembly in the engine oil pan. Tighten the nut (2) to a torque of 18 N·m (13 lb ft).

  11. Fill the engine oil pan to the correct level that is indicated on the engine oil level gauge. Refer to the Operation and Maintenance Manual, "Refill Capacities" for the lubrication system capacity of the engine.
