a. Install tension guide on the back surface of front chain case.
lHold front chain case vertically when installing. Tension guide
may come off if front chain case is tilted.
b. Apply a continuous bead of liquid gasket on both ends of arched
area (locations where rear chain case is adjoined) as shown in
the figure.
lUse Genuine Liquid Gasket or equivalent.
c. Install front chain case.
lWhen installing, align dowel pin on oil pump housing with the pin hole.
lInstall No. 6, 10 and 11 bolts with the rubber washer to front chain case.
d. Tighten fixing bolts in numerical order shown in the figure.
e. After tightening all the bolts, re-tighten in the same order.
6. Hereafter, install in the reverse order of removal.
INSPECTION AFTER INSTALLATION
Inspection for Leaks
The following are procedures for checking fluids leak, lubricates leak and exhaust gases leak.
lBefore starting engine, check oil/fluid levels including engine coolant and engine oil. If less than required
quantity, fill to the specified level. Refer toMA-14, "
RECOMMENDED FLUIDS AND LUBRICANTS".
lUse procedure below to check for fuel leakage.
–Turn ignition switch “ON” (with engine stopped). With fuel pressure applied to fuel piping, check for fuel
leakage at connection points.
–Start engine. With engine speed increased, check again for fuel leakage at connection points.
lRun engine to check for unusual noise and vibration.
lWarm up engine thoroughly to make sure there is no leakage of fuel, exhaust gases, or any oil/fluids
including engine oil and engine coolant.
lBleed air from lines and hoses of applicable lines, such as in cooling system.
lAfter cooling down engine, again check oil/fluid levels including engine oil and engine coolant. Refill to the
specified level, if necessary.

INSTALLATION
Before installation, remove old liquid gasket from mating surface of all liquid gasket applied parts.
1. Install cylinder head gasket.
lCylinder head gasket to be installed is selected by its thickness through the following procedure.
–When replacing gasket alone
• Install a gasket with same thickness as that of the one removed.
• Identify the thickness of gasket by the number of cut-outs on
the rear RH side.
*: Measured with head bolts tightened
• Gasket (3) thickness can be identified at the location (A)
shown in the figure by the numbers of cut-outs before
removal.
• Heater return tube is omitted for explanation.
NOTE:
Use mirrors for checking at points out of clear sight.
–When the following parts have been repaired/replaced:
lWith cylinder block upper surface and/or crankshaft pin journal ground
lWith cylinder block, pistons, connecting rods, and/or crankshaft replaced
a. Set piston at a point close to TDC.
b. Set the dial gauge at the location as shown in the figure. Turning
crankshaft gradually, set the gauge scale to “0” where the piston
protrusion is maximized.
c. Movethedialgaugestandsothatthetipofdialgaugecancon-
tact cylinder block. Read the difference.
d. Measure two points from each cylinder in order to obtain each
mean value of them. Choose a properly thick gasket corre-
sponding the highest number of the four values.
