Cylinder Head
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2012 RAM Pickup and 2012 RAM Cab & Chassis. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
CAUTION:
Do not wire brush head surface while fuel injectors are still installed. Fuel injector damage can result.
Remove fuel injectors before cleaning (if not already removed during cylinder head removal).
Clean the carbon from the injector nozzle seat with a nylon or brass brush.
Scrape the gasket residue from all gasket surfaces.
Wash the cylinder head in hot soapy water solution (88°C or 140°F).
After rinsing, use compressed air to dry the cylinder head.
Polish the gasket surface with 400 grit paper. Use a sanding block to maintain a flat surface.
