Install the timing chain cover.
The sealant locations on chain cover and on counter parts (cylinder head, cylinder block) must be free of engine oil and etc.
Before assembling the timing chain cover, the liquid sealant should be applied on the gap between cylinder head and cylinder block.
Assemble the part within 5 minutes of applying sealant.
Bead width : 4.0 mm (0.16 in.)
Apply liquid sealant on timing chain cover. Then, assemble the part within 5 minutes of applying sealant.
Sealant should be applied in a continuous bead in each of the areas indicated below.
Bead width
A : 1.5 ~ 2.5 mm (0.06 ~ 0.10 in.)
B : 2.5 ~ 3.5 mm (0.09 ~ 0.14 in.)
C : 3.0 ~ 4.0 mm (0.12 ~ 0.16 in.)
When installing the timing chain, be careful not to remove the applied sealant from the timing cover by contacting with other parts.
The dowel pins on the cylinder block and holes on the timing chain cover should be used as a reference in order to assemble the timing chain cover correctly.
Tightening torque
A :
9.8 ~ 11.8 N.m (1.0 ~ 1.2 kgf.m, 7.2 ~ 8.7 lb-ft) -1EA
B :
18.6 ~ 23.5 N.m (1.9 ~ 2.4 kgf.m, 13.7 ~ 17.4 lb-ft) -12EA
C :
44.1 ~ 53.9 N.m (4.5 ~ 5.5 kgf.m, 32.5 ~ 39.8 lb-ft) -3EA
Do not start the engine or perform pressure test within 30 minutes after assembling the timing chain cover.
