AH01.40-N-1000-01SE Notes on Sealant Path For Timing Case Cover








Application of sealant to timing case cover

At sealing surfaces and crossover points between the oil pan and crankcase, it is particularly important to pay attention to cleanliness. The sealing surfaces must be oil and grease-free otherwise leaks can occur.

The traced line (A) identifies the sealant run.

Apply sealant evenly in the form of a bead with a height and width of 1.5 mm (±0.5) mm on the lines (A) of the timing case cutout. The sealant must be applied within 10 min.

The sealant must be applied in the upper area of the timing case cutout in the center area of the sealing surface since the sealant slides downwards due to placement of the timing case cover.
