Installation

1. Make sure to tighten the cylinder head fixing bolts in the 

sequence from (1) to (10) shown in the illustration: 
a. Apply a small amount of oil to the bolt head and root.
b. Install the bolts and tighten them in place by hands.
c. Tighten the cylinder head fixing bolts in the following 

procedures:
1st step: Tighten the bolts to 45 ± 5 N·m in the 
sequence from (1) to (10) shown in the illustration.
2nd step: Rotate the bolts clockwise by 180° ± 10° in 
tightening sequence.

2. Other installation procedures are in the reverse order of removal.

CAUTION

 Remove residual seal gum and oil on cylinder head and cylinder block.
 Replace cylinder head gasket.
 Check that cylinder head gasket is neat and clean without any chips and scratches. The side stamped 

with part number of cylinder gasket should face upward.

 Install cylinder gasket to flat surface of cylinder block with a dowel pin.
 Clean the joint surface between cylinder head and combustion chamber, together with the flat surface of 

cylinder block top and thread hole. There should be no accumulated oil at the bottom of cylinder block 
thread hole.

 During installation, piston should not be located at the top dead center, in order to prevent it from being 

impacted by the opening valve when installing rocker arm.

 Install cylinder head bolt washer with the chamfering surface facing upward and the flat side facing 

cylinder head.
