- Ensure proper use of room temperature vulcanizing (RTV) sealant. Use of Room Temperature Vulcanizing (RTV) and Anaerobic Sealant
NOTE:
- All sealing surfaces must be free of contamination prior to applying the sealer.
- Installation and final torque specification must be completed within 10 minutes of applying the sealant.
- Additional sealant is necessary to reduce the possibility of leakage where the cylinder head to engine block interface along the bead path flange on the front cover.
- Apply a 4 mm bead of sealer directly in the flange of the engine front cover perimeter mating surface.
