    NOTE: It is critical during installation to ensure the bearing rear cap and cylinder head alignment is correct and the mating surfaces are flush.
    • Ensure that all sealing material has been removed from the components, and the sealing surfaces are clean and free of contamination prior to applying the sealer.
    • Install and align the rear cap within 20 minutes of applying the sealer.
    NOTE: Apply the sealer to all locations centrally locating the bead on the rail.
    • Run bead to 5.0 mm, dimension a, as shown.
    • Where the cap ends on the perimeter rail, extend bead approximately 4.0 mm beyond edge of cap.
    • Run bead, dimension c, 32 mm from the edge of the cylinder head as shown.
    • Run beads, dimension b, 20 mm from edge of cylinder head as shown.
  11. Apply a 2.5 mm bead of sealer to the cylinder head at the number 6 intake camshaft rear cap mating surface. Refer to Adhesives, Fluids, Lubricants, and Sealers .
  12. Install the number 6 intake camshaft rear cap.
    1. Tighten the cap bolts evenly to 5 N.m (44 lb in).
    2. Tighten the cap bolts evenly to 10 N.m (89 lb in).
