After repairing, start engine and increase engine speed to check engine coolant, fuel, engine oil, and
exhaust gasses for leakage.

Parts Requiring Angle Tightening

EBS00QBD

For the final tightening of the following engine parts use Tool: 

Cylinder head bolts

Lower cylinder block bolts

Connecting rod cap bolts

Crankshaft pulley bolt (No angle wrench is required as bolt flange is provided with notches for angle tight-
ening)

Do not use a torque value for final tightening. 

The torque value for these parts are for a preliminary step.

Ensure thread and seat surfaces are clean and coated with engine oil. 

Precautions for Liquid Gasket

EBS00QBE

REMOVAL OF LIQUID GASKET SEALING

After removing nuts and bolts, separate the mating surface and
remove old liquid gasket sealing using Tool.

CAUTION:

Be careful not to damage the mating surfaces.

Tap seal cutter to insert it, and then slide it by tapping on the
side as shown.

In areas where Tool is difficult to use, use plastic hammer to
lightly tap the parts, to remove it.

CAUTION:

If for some unavoidable reason tool such as screwdriver is
used, be careful not to damage the mating surfaces.

LIQUID GASKET APPLICATION PROCEDURE

1.

Using scraper, remove old liquid gasket adhering to the gasket
application surface and the mating surface.

Remove liquid gasket completely from the groove of the gas-
ket application surface, bolts, and bolt holes.

2.

Thoroughly clean the mating surfaces and remove adhering
moisture, grease and foreign materials.

3.

Attach liquid gasket tube to Tool.

Use Genuine RTV Silicone Sealant or equivalent. Refer to

GI-47, "Recommended Chemical Products and Sealants"

 .

4.

Apply liquid gasket without breaks to the specified location with
the specified dimensions.

If there is a groove for liquid gasket application, apply liquid
gasket to the groove.

PRECAUTIONS

2007 Pathfinder

As for bolt holes, normally apply liquid gasket inside the
holes. Occasionally, it should be applied outside the holes.
Make sure to read the text of this manual.

Within five minutes of liquid gasket application, install the mat-
ing component.

If liquid gasket protrudes, wipe it off immediately.

Do not retighten nuts or bolts after the installation.

After 30 minutes or more have passed from the installation, fill
engine oil and engine coolant.

CAUTION:

If there are specific instructions in this manual, observe
them.
