Oil Pump: Installation

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2005 Ford Pickup and 2005 Ford Cab & Chassis. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

CAUTION: Do not use metal scrapers, wire brushes, power abrasive discs or other abrasive means to clean the sealing surfaces. These tools cause scratches and gouges which make leak paths. Use a plastic scraping tool to remove all traces of old sealant.

Clean the sealing surfaces with metal surface prep. Follow the directions on the packaging. Inspect the mating surfaces.
Position the oil pump and install the bolts.
- Tighten to 10 Nm (89 lb-in).
