Inst
allation
Cl
ean the gasket faces of the catalyst and the exhaust manifold.
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.
2.
Clean the component mating faces.

3.
Check cylinder head face for distortio
n, across the center and from corner
to corner.

2. Clean the component mating faces.

3.
Check cylinder head face for distortio
n, across the center and from corner
to corner.
4. For cylinder head face distortion data, refer to specifications.For additional
information, refer to: Specifications
(303
-00 Engine System - General
Information, Specifications).

5.

NOTE: For
cylinder head with
distortion above the
maximum allowance,
the cylinder head
material must be
measured.
Measure the
cylinder head
material.
Che
ck
measurement
from the
centre of the
exhaust
dowel to the
cylinder head
face as
shown.
If the

measurement
is less than
51.88 mm
the cylinder
head requires
replacement.

6.
Install a new gasket to the downpipe catalyst flange.
7. Install and align a new cylinder head gasket to the cylinder block face.
