>> A << Oil Pump Case Installation
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2014 Mitsubishi Outlander. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
CAUTION:
Carefully work so that the rests of the liquid gasket cannot enter to the oil passage or water passage.
- Remove the remaining liquid gasket on the oil pump case and the cylinder block.
- Degrease and clean the plane where the liquid gasket is applied and the both sides of the chamfered areas where the liquid gasket collects.
- After degreasing and cleaning the plane and the both sides, always spray compressed air into the oil passage and the water passage. Check that the oil passage and the water passage are free of foreign materials such as liquid gasket.
- As shown in the illustration, apply a 2.0 ± 0.5 mm (0.08 ± 0.01 inch) diameter bead of sealant (Three bond 1217G or exact equivalent) to the area on the oil pump case.
- After checking that the o-ring is installed at three places, install the oil pump case to the cylinder block.
- Tighten the oil pump case to the specified torque.
Tightening torque: 23 ± 6 N.m (17 ± 4 ft-lb)
