REFITTING (special notes)
Refit the cylinder head gasket selected previous-
ly. This is centred by two dowels at (C).
99173-1R
Bring the pistons to mid-stroke position to
prevent them from coming into contact with the
valves during the tightening of the cylinder head .
Centre the cylinder head on the dowels.
Lubricate the threads and under the heads of the
mounting bolts.
Tighten the cylinder head (see section 07
"Tightening the cylinder head").
Refitting is the reverse of removal.
Refit the timing belt, (see method described in
section 11 "Timing belt").
Fill and bleed the cooling circuit , (see section 9
"Filling -bleeding").
MEASURING THE THICKNESS OF THE CYLINDER
HEAD GASKET
Checking piston protrusion
Clean the piston heads in order to eliminate any
traces of deposits.
Turn the crankshaft in its operating direction
once, to bring piston n° 1 close to
TDC .
Fit tool Mot. 252-01 on the piston.
Fit tool Mot. 251-01, complete with dial gauge
Mot. 252-01. on the plate Ensure that the dial
gauge measuring pin is in contact with the cylin-
der block; then locate the piston
TDC.
NOTE
: All measurements are to be carried out in
the longitudinal axis of the engine, in order to eli-
minate any errors due to tilting of the piston.
99173R
Measure the piston protrusion.
ONLY TAKE INTO CONSIDERATION THE
DIMENSIONS OF THE PISTON WITH THE
GREATEST PROTRUSION.
For a maximum piston protrusion:
- lower than 0.868 mm, use a gasket marked by
a tab with two holes ,
- included between 0.868 mm and 1mm, use a
gasket marked by a tab with one hole,
- greater than 1mm, use a gasket marked by a
tab with three holes. F8Q Engine

COOLING
Water pump
CLEANING
It is very important not to scratch the gasket faces
of all aluminium components.
Use the product Décapjoint to dissolve the part
of the gasket which remains attached.
Apply the product to the part to be cleaned, wait
approximately 10 minutes, then remove it using a
wooden spatula.
The wearing of gloves is recommended during
this operation.
