block mating surface of the oil pan and to the inner threads of the bolt holes. Install the component within 
5 minutes of applying the liquid gasket. 

NOTE:

Whenever any crankshaft or connecting rod bearing is replaced, it is 
necessary after reassembly to run the engine at idling speed until it 
reaches normal operating temperature, then continue to run it for about 15 
minutes.
