- Parts must be assembled within 3 minutes of application. Otherwise the material must be removed and reapplied.
- Immediately remove nozzle from the tube and reinstall cap.
- Install a nozzle that has been cut to a 3 - 4 mm (0.12 - 0.16 in.) opening.
- Apply seal packing to 2 locations as shown in the illustration.
Seal packing: Part No. 08826-00080 or equivalent
- Install a nozzle that has been cut to a 2 mm (0.08 in.) opening.NOTE: Avoid applying an excessive amount to the surface.
- Parts must be assembled within 3 minutes of application. Otherwise the material must be removed and reapplied.
- Immediately remove nozzle from the tube and reinstall cap.
- Install a nozzle that has been cut to a 2 mm (0.08 in.) opening.
- Install the timing chain cover with the 14 bolts and 2 nuts. Uniformly tighten the bolts and nuts in several passes.
