Liquid Gasket Application Procedure
a. Use a scraper to remove all traces of old liquid gasket from
mating surfaces and grooves. Also, completely clean any oil
from these areas.
b. Apply a continuous bead of liquid gasket to mating surfaces.
(Use Genuine Liquid Gasket or equivalent.)
IFor oil pan, be sure liquid gasket diameter is 3.5 to 4.5 mm
(0.138 to 0.177 in).
IFor areas except oil pan, be sure liquid gasket diameter is
2.0 to 3.0 mm (0.079 to 0.118 in).
c. Apply liquid gasket around the inner side of bolt holes (unless
otherwise specified).
d. Assembly should be done within 5 minutes after coating.
e. Wait at least 30 minutes before refilling engine oil and engine
coolant.

Oil Pressure Check
WARNING:
IBe careful not to burn yourself, as the engine and oil may
be hot.
IOil pressure check should be done in ªNeutralº gear posi-
tion.
1. Check oil level.
2. Remove oil pressure switch.
3. Install pressure gauge.
4. Start engine and warm it up to normal operating temperature.
5. Check oil pressure with engine running under no-load.

IIf the tip clearance (q2) exceeds the limit, replace gear set.
IIf body to gear clearances (q
1,q3,q4,q5) exceed the limit,
replace oil pump body assembly.
REGULATOR VALVE INSPECTION
1. Visually inspect components for wear and damage.
2. Check oil pressure regulator valve sliding surface and valve
spring.
3. Coat regulator valve with engine oil. Check that it falls smoothly
into the valve hole by its own weight.
If damaged, replace regulator valve set or oil pump cover.
4. Check regulator valve to oil pump cover clearance.
Clearance:
