Degreasing

Degreasing

Bottom face of cylinder head

1. Completely remove the liquid gasket on the upper plane of

the cylinder block and the lower plane of the cylinder head.

CAUTION

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 degreasing, since the
oils from your fingers will harm the seal ability.
2. Using white gasoline and so on, degrease the place

specified in the illustration.
