3. With assistance, remove the cylinder head.
34 . R
emove the cylinder head gasket.
1. Note how the gasket is installed and remove it.
2. Remove and discard the cloth, placed previously to absorb coolant spillage.
Wipe up any l e
aked coolant.
35. Remove the coolant drain tray from under the engine.
36. Remove and discard the gasket from the downpipe catalyst.
Cle
an the gasket faces of the catalyst and the exhaust manifold.
37. Clean cylinder head and cylinder block gasket faces.
Ensu
re 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.
38. 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.
