4.3.9.2. Installation of a head of the block of cylinders Preparation for installation

PERFORMANCE ORDER

1. Interfaced surfaces of a head and the block of cylinders should be absolutely pure. For their clearing use a firm plastic or wooden scraper. At clearing be careful, as the aluminium alloy is very easy for damaging. Check up that the deposit has not got to oil and water channels. It is especially important for greasing system as the deposit can block oil giving to engine components. If necessary clear channels.

2. Check up interfaced surfaces of a head and the block of cylinders on presence of notches, deep scratches and other damages. If defects small, they can be removed machining. But at detail major defects are subject to replacement.

3. Using a metal ruler and probe, check up planeness of interfaced surfaces.

4. Clear apertures under bolts in the block. Bolt screwing up in the aperture filled with oil can break off the block because of hydraulic pressure.
