Gasket sealant application

procedure 1
q When press fitting the cylinder liner again after
pulling it out, apply gasket sealant (LG-6) to
the cylinder block top deck (cylinder liner
flange contact surface of the cylinder block)
according to the following procedure.
a When using shim for the deck, apply the gas-
ket sealant similarly.

1. Wipe off dirt, oil etc. from cylinder block top (c)
and the cylinder liner flange contact surface
with cloths.

2. Apply LG-6 to gasket sealant application area

block deck.
q Then, apply LG-6 as when no shim is
used.

5. Loosen the cylinder head mounting bolts,

remove the cylinder head, and wipe off the
excessive gasket sealant projected from the
counterbore portion.
a If the gasket sealant sticks to grommet (1)
of the head gasket, it deforms the grom-
met into a heart shape and can cause
coolant leakage into water hole (2).
Accordingly, wipe off the gasket sealant
thoroughly.
a When installing the cylinder head after
performing step "4.5", use a new head
gasket.
