  1. Clean the gasket surfaces of the cylinder block and oil pan lower.
  2. Apply a 2.5 ± 0.5 mm (0.10 ± 0.01 inch) diameter bead of sealant (Three bond 1217G or exact equivalent) to the oil pan. Be sure to install the oil pan quickly while the sealant is wet.
    NOTE: Install the oil pan within 15 minutes after applying liquid gasket.
    NOTE: Then wait at least one hour. Never start the engine or let engine oil or coolant touch the adhesion surface during that time.
