FIPG Application

Applied FIPG bead should be of the specified size and free of any break. FIPG can be wiped away unless it has completely hardened. Install the mating parts in position while the FIPG is still wet. Do not allow FIPG to spread beyond the sealing areas during installation. Avoid operating the transaxle or letting oils or water come in contact with the sealed area before a time sufficient for FIPG to harden (approximately one hour) has passed.

FIPG application method may vary from location to location. Follow the instruction for each particular case described later in this service information.
