Precaution for Liquid Gasket

INFOID:0000000001381456

REMOVAL OF LIQUID GASKET

• After removing the mounting bolts and nuts, separate the mating

surface using a seal cutter and remove the liquid gasket.

CAUTION:

Be careful not to damage the mating surfaces.

• In areas where the cutter is difficult to use, use a plastic hammer to

lightly tap the liquid gasket applied area.

CAUTION:

If for some unavoidable reason a tool such as a flat-bladed
screwdriver is used, be careful not to damage the mating sur-
faces.

LIQUID GASKET APPLICATION PROCEDURE 

1.

Using a scraper, remove the old liquid gasket adhering to the
gasket application surface and the mating surface.
• Remove the liquid gasket completely from the groove of the

gasket application surface, mounting bolts and bolt holes.

2.

Wipe the gasket application surface and the mating surface with
white gasoline (lighting and heating use) to remove adhering
moisture, grease and foreign materials.

3.

Attach the liquid gasket to the tube presser.
Use Genuine Liquid Gasket or equivalent.

4.

Apply the liquid gasket without breaks to the specified location
with the specified dimensions.
• If there is a groove for the liquid gasket application, apply the

gasket to the groove.

• As for the bolt holes, normally apply the gasket inside the

holes. If specified, it should be applied outside the holes. Make
sure to read the instruction in this manual.

• Within five minutes of gasket application, install the mating

component.

• If the liquid gasket protrudes, wipe it off immediately.
• Do not retighten after the installation.
• After 30 minutes or more have passed from the installation, fill

the engine oil and coolant.

CAUTION:

If there are instructions in this manual, observe them.

CLEANLINESS

CLEANLINESS INSTRUCTIONS WHICH MUST BE FOLLOWED WHEN WORKING ON THE HIGH PRES-
SURE DIRECT INJECTION SYSTEM
Risks relating to contamination

< PRECAUTION >

[K9K]

PRECAUTIONS

The system is very sensitive to contamination. The risks caused by the introduction of contamination are:

• Damage or destruction of the high pressure injection system and the engine,
• Seizing or leaking of a component.
All After-Sales operations must be performed under very clean conditions. This means that no impurities (par-
ticles a few microns in size) get into the system during dismantling or into the circuits via the fuel unions.
The cleanliness principle must be applied from the filter to the injectors.
WHAT ARE THE SOURCES OF CONTAMINATION?

Contamination is caused by:

• Metal or plastic chips,
• Paint,
• Fibres:
- Boxes,
- Brushes,
- Paper,
- Clothing,
- Cloths,
• Foreign bodies such as hair,
• Ambient air,
• Etc.
IMPORTANT: It is not possible to clean the engine using a high pressure washer because of the risk of dam-
aging connections. In addition, moisture may collect in the connectors and create electrical connection mal-
functions.
INSTRUCTIONS TO BE FOLLOWED BEFORE ANY WORK IS CARRIED OUT ON THE INJECTION SYS-
TEM
• Ensure that you have the plugs for the unions to be opened (bag of plugs sold at the Parts Stores - Nissan

part No.: 16609 00Q0B, Renault part No.: 77 01 476 857). Plugs are to be used once only. After use, they
must be thrown away (once used they are soiled and cleaning is not sufficient to make them reusable).
Unused plugs must be thrown away.

• Ensure that you have hermetically resealable plastic bags for storing removed parts. Stored parts will there-

fore be less subject to the risk of impurities. The bags must be used only once, and after use they must be
thrown away.

• Lint-free towelettes to be used for high pressure supply pump related service purpose. The use of a normal

cloth or paper for cleaning purposes is forbidden. These are not lint-free and may contaminate the fuel circuit
of the system. Each lint-free cloth should only be used once.

INSTRUCTIONS TO BE FOLLOWED BEFORE OPENING THE FUEL CIRCUIT
• For each operation, use new thinner (used thinner contains impurities). Pour it into a clean receptacle.
• For each operation, use a clean brush which is in good condition (the brush must not shed its bristles).
• Use a brush and thinners to clean the connections to be opened.
• Blow compressed air over the cleaned parts (tools, cleaned the same way as the parts, connections and

injection system zone). Check that no bristles remain adhered.

• Wash your hands before and during the operation if necessary.
• When wearing leather protective gloves, cover these with latex gloves.
INSTRUCTIONS TO BE FOLLOWED DURING THE OPERATION
• As soon as the circuit is open, all openings must be plugged to prevent impurities from entering the system.

The plugs to be used are available from the Parts Stores - Nissan part No.: 16609 00Q0B, Renault part No.:
77 01 476 857. They must not, under any circumstances, be reused.

• Close the hermetically sealed bag, even if it has to be reopened shortly afterwards. Ambient air carries con-

tamination.

• All components of the injection system that are removed must be stored in a hermetically sealed plastic bag

once the plugs have been inserted.

• The use of a brush, thinner, bellows, sponge or normal cloth is strictly forbidden once the circuit has been

opened. These items are likely to allow impurities to enter the system.

• A new component replacing an old one must not be removed from its packaging until it is to be fitted to the

vehicle.
