Precautions for Liquid GasketNBS004PR
LIQUID GASKET APPLICATION PROCEDURE
1. Remove old liquid gasket adhering to the liquid gasket application surface and the mating surface.
Remove liquid gasket completely from the liquid gasket application surface, mounting bolts, and bolt
holes.
2. Wipe the liquid gasket application surface and the mating surface with white gasoline (lighting and heating
use) to remove adhering moisture, grease and foreign materials.
3. Apply liquid gasket to the liquid gasket application surface.
Use Genuine RTV Silicone Sealant or equivalent. Refer to GI-48, "
RECOMMENDED CHEMICAL
PRODUCTS AND SEALANTS" .
Within five minutes of liquid gasket application, install the mating component.
If liquid gasket protrudes, wipe it off immediately.
Do not retighten mounting bolts or nuts after the installation.
After 30 minutes or more have passed from the installation, fill engine oil and engine coolant.

OIL PRESSURE CHECK
WAR NING :
Be careful not to get burn yourself, as engine oil may be hot.
Oil pressure check should be done in “Parking position”.
1. Check the engine oil level. Refer to LU-7, "
ENGINE OIL LEVEL" .
2. Remove front engine undercover with power tool.
3. Disconnect harness connector at oil pressure switch, and
remove oil pressure switch using deep socket (commercial ser-
vice tool).
CAUTION:
Do not drop or shock oil pressure switch.
Remove the oil pressure switch using a 26 mm (1.02 in) box
wrench. (AWD models)
4. Install the oil pressure gauge (SST) and hose (SST).
5. Start the engine and warm it up to normal operating temperature.
6. Check the engine oil pressure with engine running under no-load.
NOTE:
When the engine oil temperature is low, the engine oil pressure becomes high.
Engine oil pressure [Engine oil temperature at 80
C (176 F)]
If difference is extreme, check engine oil passage and oil pump for engine oil leaks.
7. After the inspections, install oil pressure switch as follows:
