Section 10
Reassembly
The following sequence is suggested for complete
engine reassembly. This procedure assumes that all
components are new or have been reconditioned, and
all component subassembly work has been completed.
This procedure may be varied to accommodate
options or special equipment.
NOTE: Make sure the engine is assembled using
all specified torque values, tightening
sequences, and clearances. Failure to observe
specifications could cause severe engine wear
or damage.
NOTE: Always use new gaskets.
NOTE: Make sure all components have been
properly cleaned BEFORE reassembly.
NOTE: Apply a small amount of oil to the threads
of critical fasteners before assembly, unless a
Sealant or Loctite® is specified or preapplied.
