AH01.40-P-1000-01SXI Notes on Sealant Path For Timing Case Cover






Application of sealant to timing case cover

One should particularly ensure freedom from oil contamination and cleanliness at cross-over points between the oil pan and crankcase otherwise oil leaks may occur.

The traced line (A) identifies the sealant run.

Sealing surfaces must be free of oil and grease. Apply sealant to surfaces as a bead 1.5 mm (±0.5 mm) wide. The sealant must be applied within 10 min. The sealant bead must not be spread.

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