INTAKE MANIFOLD
GASKET REPLACMENT
1.
Remove the governor control rod from the gover-
nor arm and the breather tube from the air
cleaner.
2.
Remove all
dirt
from the area around the intake
manifold and cylinder head interface. Remove
the four bolts holding down the intake manifold
assembly, and move the manifold
so
that
it
is
possible to work on the gasket area.
3.
Remove the intake manifold gasket. On some
models, the intake manifold gasket is tied to the
exhaust manifold gasket. In these cases, use a
cutting tool (chisel) to separate the intake mani-
fold section of the gasket. Follow the outline of
the exhaust manifold as closely as possible when
cutting
.
4.
Install the new intake manifold gasket, making
sure
it
is properly positioned. Make certain the
outline of the gasket follows outline of port.
Installing the gasket upside down will allow air
leakage. This will cause lean operation and allow
entry of dirt which will eventually lead to engine
destruction.
5.
Reinstall the intake manifold tightening the four
hold down bolts to
20
to 23 ft-lb (27-31 Nm)
of
torque.
6.
Reattach the governor control rod and air cleaner
breather tube.
