NOTE:
. Always use a new head and manifold gasket.. The cylinder head gasket is a metal gasket, Take carenot to bend it.
. Rotate the crankshaft, set the No. 1 piston at TDC (seepage 6-63).
. Do not use the middle cover and lower cover forstorang removed items.. Clean the middle cover and lower cover before instal_lation.
o Replace any washers that are damaged or deteriorated.
1. Install the cylinder head gasket, dowel pins and thehead oil control orifice on the cylinder head.

2, Tighten the cylinder head bolts in two steps. In thefirst step, tighten all bolts in sequence to about 29N.m (3.0 kgf.m, 22 tbf.ftl. ln the final step, tighten inthe same sequence to 83 N.m (8.S kgf.m,6t lbf.ft).
NOTE:
. Apply clean engine oil to the bolt threads andunder the bolt head.. We recommend using a beam-type torquewrench. When using a preset-type torque wrench,be sure to tighten slowly and not to overtighten.. lf a bolt makes any noise while you are torquing it,loosen the bolt, and retighten it from the 1st step.
