38. Clean cylinder head and cylinder block gasket faces.
E
nsure that all threaded holes in the cylinder block face are clean and
free from oil.
Cl
ean and inspect the cylinder head bolts. They may be re-used on two
occasions. When re- used, each bolt head should be marked with one
dot from an automatic centre punch.
39. Clean and inspect all relevant components and mating faces.
1.
CAUTIONS:
If a replacement cylinder head is to be installed to a vehicle with VCT
the cylinder head must have the oil gallery blind rivet removed before
installation.
Make sure that all debris is removed from the cylinder head and cylinder
head oil gallery.
Vehicles fitted with VCT: Remove the blind rivet from the VCT oil gallary.
• NOTE: The centre bore of the blind rivet is 6 mm diameter.
I
dentify the VCT oil supply gallery and the 8 mm blind rivet.
U
sing a suitable 3 mm punch release the centre of the blind rivet until
it is released from the outer part of the blind rivet.
U
sing a suitable extraction tool, remo
ve the remaining part of the blind
rivet.
