INSTALLATION SERVICE POINTS

.

>>A<< TIMING CHAIN CASE INSTALLATION

CAUTION

• Completely remove all the old liquid gasket, which

might be remaining in the installation hole, the O-ring
groove or among the components such as the cylinder
head gasket.

• Sufficiently check that there is no residual oil on the

place where degreasing is performed. If fingerprints are
left, do not touch it with bare hands after the degreas-
ing, since the oils from your fingers will harm the seal
ability.

1. Completely remove liquid gasket adhering to the timing

chain case, cylinder block and cylinder head.

2. Using white gasoline and so on, degrease the surface where

the liquid gasket is applied and the contact surface between
the cylinder block and the cylinder head.

CAUTION

Install the timing chain case within three minutes after
applying liquid gasket.
3. Apply liquid gasket (Three bond 1217G [Mitsubishi Genuine

Part No.1000A923] or equivalent) of 2.5

± 0.5 mm (0.10 ±

0.02 inch) in thickness to the timing chain case. For
illustrated A locations, however, apply liquid gasket of 4.5

±

0.5 mm (0.18

± 0.02 inch) in diameter or liquid gasket of 2.5

± 0.5 mm (0.10 ± 0.02 inch) by putting one on top of another

as shown in the illustration.

4. Completely remove the sealant remaining on the gasket

which is the three-plane mating surface between the
cylinder head and the cylinder block. Use the white gasoline
to degrease them.

5. The engine oil remaining at the cylinder gasket overflows

from the three-plane mating surface described in Section 4.
Apply the liquid gasket (Three bond 1217G [Mitsubishi
Genuine Part No.1000A923] or equivalent) to this area as
soon as grease is removed.

6. Install the timing chain case.
