STANDARD PROCEDURE
STANDARD PROCEDURE - FORM-IN-PLACE
GASKETS AND SEALERS
There are numerous places where form-in-place
gaskets are used on the engine. Care must be taken
when applying form-in-place gaskets to assure
obtaining the desired results.Do not use form-in-
place gasket material unless specified.Bead size,
continuity, and location are of great importance. Too
thin a bead can result in leakage while too much can
result in spill-over which can break off and obstruct
fluid feed lines. A continuous bead of the proper
width is essential to obtain a leak-free gasket.
There are numerous types of form-in-place gasket
materials that are used in the engine area. Mopart
Engine RTV GEN II, MopartATF-RTV, and Mopart
Gasket Maker gasket materials, each have different
properties and can not be used in place of the other.
MOPARtENGINE RTV GEN II
MopartEngine RTV GEN II is used to seal com-
ponents exposed to engine oil. This material is a spe-
cially designed black silicone rubber RTV that
retains adhesion and sealing properties when
exposed to engine oil. Moisture in the air causes the
material to cure. This material is available in three
ounce tubes and has a shelf life of one year. After one
year this material will not properly cure. Always
inspect the package for the expiration date before
use.
MOPARtATF RTV
MopartATF RTV is a specifically designed black
silicone rubber RTV that retains adhesion and seal-
ing properties to seal components exposed to auto-
matic transmission fluid, engine coolants, and
moisture. This material is available in three ounce
tubes and has a shelf life of one year. After one year
this material will not properly cure. Always inspect
the package for the expiration date before use.
MOPARtGASKET MAKER
MopartGasket Maker is an anaerobic type gasket
material. The material cures in the absence of air
when squeezed between two metallic surfaces. It will
not cure if left in the uncovered tube. The anaerobic
material is for use between two machined surfaces.
Do not use on flexible metal flanges.
MOPARtGASKET SEALANT
MopartGasket Sealant is a slow drying, perma-
nently soft sealer. This material is recommended for
sealing threaded fittings and gaskets against leakage
of oil and coolant. Can be used on threaded and
machined parts under all temperatures. This mate-
rial is used on engines with multi-layer steel (MLS)
cylinder head gaskets. This material also will pre-
vent corrosion. MopartGasket Sealant is available in
a 13 oz. aerosol can or 4oz./16 oz. can w/applicator.
FORM-IN-PLACE GASKET AND SEALER
APPLICATION
Assembling parts using a form-in-place gasket
requires care but it's easier then using precut gas-
kets.
MopartGasket Maker material should be applied
sparingly 1 mm (0.040 in.) diameter or less of sealant
to one gasket surface. Be certain the material sur-
rounds each mounting hole. Excess material can eas-
ily be wiped off. Components should be torqued in
place within 15 minutes. The use of a locating dowel
is recommended during assembly to prevent smear-
ing material off the location.
MopartEngine RTV GEN II or ATF RTV gasket
material should be applied in a continuous bead
approximately 3 mm (0.120 in.) in diameter. All
mounting holes must be circled. For corner sealing, a
3.17 or 6.35 mm (1/8 or 1/4 in.) drop is placed in the
center of the gasket contact area. Uncured sealant
may be removed with a shop towel. Components
should be torqued in place while the sealant is still
wet to the touch (within 10 minutes). The usage of a
locating dowel is recommended during assembly to
prevent smearing material off the location.
MopartGasket Sealant in an aerosol can should be
applied using a thin, even coat sprayed completely
over both surfaces to be joined, and both sides of a
gasket. Then proceed with assembly. Material in a
can w/applicator can be brushed on evenly over the
sealing surfaces. Material in an aerosol can should be
used on engines with multi-layer steel gaskets.
STANDARD PROCEDURE - REPAIR DAMAGED
OR WORN THREADS
CAUTION: Be sure that the tapped holes maintain
the original center line.
Damaged or worn threads can be repaired. Essen-
tially, this repair consists of:
²Drilling out worn or damaged threads.
²Tapping the hole with a special Heli-Coil Tap, or
equivalent.
²Installing an insert into the tapped hole to bring
the hole back to its original thread size.
STANDARD PROCEDUREÐHYDROSTATIC
LOCK
CAUTION: DO NOT use the starter motor to rotate
the crankshaft. Severe damage could occur.
When an engine is suspected of hydrostatic lock
(regardless of what caused the problem), follow the
steps below.

CAUTION: Certain engine degreasers or cleaners
may discolor or damage the plastic housing of the
Filter Minder. Cover and tape the Filter Minder if any
engine degreasers or cleaners are to be used.
To test, turn the engine off. If the yellow disc (Fig.
12) has reached the red colored zone on the gradu-
ated scale, the air cleaner element should be
replaced. Refer to the proceeding removal/installation
paragraphs.
Resetting the Filter Minder:After the air
cleaner (filter) element has been replaced, press the
rubber button on the top of the Filter Minder (Fig.
12). This will allow the yellow colored disc to reset.
After the button has been pressed, the yellow disc
should spring back to the UP position.
If the Filter Minder gauge has reached the red col-
ored zone, and after an examination of the air
cleaner (filter) element, the element appears to be
clean, the high reading may be due to a temporary
condition such as snow build-up at the air intake.
Temporary high restrictions may also occur if the air
cleaner (filter) element has gotten wet such as during
a heavy rain or snow. If this occurs, allow the ele-
ment to dry out during normal engine operation.
Reset the rubber button on the top of the Filter
Minder and retest after the element has dried.Removal
(1) Loosen air inlet tube clamp at air cleaner hous-
ing inlet (Fig. 11). Remove this tube at air cleaner
housing cover.
(2) The housing cover is equipped with four (4)
spring clips (Fig. 11) and is hinged at front with plas-
tic tabs. Unlatch clips from top of air cleaner housing
and tilt housing cover up and forward for cover
removal.
(3) Remove air cleaner element from air cleaner
housing.
INSTALLATION
(1) Before installing a new air cleaner element,
clean inside of air cleaner housing.
(2) Position air cleaner cover to tabs on front of air
cleaner housing. Latch four spring clips to seal cover
to housing.
(3) Install air inlet tube at air cleaner housing
inlet. Note hose alignment notches at both inlet hose
and air cleaner cover (Fig. 11).
(4) Position tube clamp to inlet tube and tighten to
3 N´m (25 in. lbs.) torque.
CYLINDER HEAD

iron and is a one piece cross flow design with four
valves per cylinder. The arrangement of two intake
and two exhaust valves per cylinder allows for a cen-
trally located injector. The cylinder head also
includes an integral intake manifold, an integral
thermostat housing, and a longitudal fuel return
rifle, which exits at the rear of the head. The 24
valve design also includes integrally cast valve
guides and hardened intake and exhaust valve seat
inserts.
