- Position cylinder head gasket (4) on the dowels (6) on the top of the cylinder block (3). Do not use any gasket sealant or compound on the cylinder head gasket.
Note: A number at location (5) with four digits is stamped on cylinder head gasket (4) in order to ensure the correct positioning of the cylinder head gasket. This number faces the cylinder head. Make sure that cylinder head gasket (4) for cylinder head (2) is the correct thickness as the original cylinder head gasket before installation.
Note: The correct piston height must be maintained in order to prevent damage to the pistons and the valves. Refer to Testing and Adjusting, "Piston Height - Inspect". The correct piston height must be maintained in order to ensure that the engine conforms to the exhaust emission standards.
- Attach a suitable lifting device to cylinder head (2) .
- Position cylinder head (2) on cylinder block (3). Ensure that cylinder head (2) is positioned on dowels (6). Verify that cylinder head gasket (4) is positioned correctly.
- Lubricate cylinder head bolts (1) with clean engine oil.
- Install the cylinder head bolts and gradually tighten the cylinder head bolts in a numerical sequence. The numerical sequence is shown in Illustration 3. Tighten the cylinder head bolts to a torque of 101 N·m (74 lb ft).
