FORM-IN-PLACE GASKET

The engine has several areas where the form-in-place gasket (FIPG) is in use. To ensure that the gasket fully serves its purpose, it is necessary to observe some precautions when applying the gasket. Bead size, continuity and location are of paramount importance. Too thin a bead could cause leaks. Too thick a bead, on the other hand, could be squeezed out of location, causing blocking or narrowing of the fluid feed line. To eliminate the possibly of leaks from a joint, therefore, it is absolutely necessary to apply the gasket evenly without a break, while observing the correct bead size. The FIPG used in the engine is a room temperature vulcanization (RTV) type. Since the RTV hardens as it reacts with the moisture in the atmospheric air, it is normally used in the metallic flange areas.
Disassembly
The parts assembled with the FIPG can be easily disassembled without use of a special method. In some cases, however, the sealant between the joined surfaces may have to be broken by lightly striking with a mallet or similar tool. A flat and thin gasket scraper may be lightly hammered in between the joined surfaces. In this case, however, care must be taken to prevent damage to the joined surfaces. For removal of the oil pan, the special tool “Oil Pan Remover” is available. Be sure to use the special tool to remove the oil pan.
Surface Preparation
Thoroughly remove all substances deposited on the gasket application surfaces, using a gasket scraper or wire brush. Check to ensure that the surfaces to which the FIPG is to be applied is flat. Make sure that there are no oils, greases and foreign substances deposited on the application surfaces. Do not forget to remove the old sealant remained in the bolt holes.
Form-In-Place Gasket Application
When assembling parts with the FIPG, you must observe some precautions, bu t the procedures is very simple as in the case of a conventional precut gasket. Applied FIPG bead should be of the specified size and without breaks. Also be sure to encircle the bolt hole circumference with a completely continuous bead. The FIPG can be wiped away unless it is hardened. While the FIPG is still moist (in less than 15 minutes), mount the parts in position. When the parts are mounted, make sure that the gasket is applied to the required area only. In addition, do not apply any oil or water to the sealing locations or start the engine until a sufficient amount of time (about one hour) has passed after installation is completed. The FIPG applications procedure may vary on different areas. Observe the procedure described in the text when applying the FIPG.

CYLINDER HEAD BOLT INSTALLATION
(1) When installing the cylinder head bolts, check that the
length of the shank of each bolt (without the washer) is within the limit value. All the cylinder head bolts must be renewed as soon as any of them exceeds the permitted length.
Limit: max. 120.5 mm
(2) Fit the washers. (3) Lubricate the bolt threads and washers with engine oil. (4) Insert the cylinder head bolts and fasten them finger-tight.
The cylinder head bolts should be torque-tightened in three stages. Tighten in the first stage:
D first to 30 Nm; D then angle-tighten to 50_ ± 4_ in a single uninterrupted
movement.
NOTE Wait at least three minutes to allow the head gasket to bed down properly.
(5) Now slacken all the bolts completely. (6) Then tighten to the second stage torque:
D first to 25 Nm; D then angle-tighten the bolts to 213_ ± 7_ in a single
uninterrupted movement.
REN0045
(7) The cylinder head can only be retorqued after letting
the engine warm up to its operating temperature. Tightening torque for the third stage: D let the engine warm up (engine cooling fan starts
to turn);
D then angle-tighten the cylinder head bolts to 120_
