1. NOTE: If the oil pan is not installed and the fasteners tightened within 5 minutes, the sealant must be removed and the sealing area cleaned. Failure to follow this procedure can cause future oil leakage. If this timing cannot be met, tighten fasteners 7, 8, 9 and 10 to 8 Nm (71 lb-in) within 5 minutes of applying the sealer and final torque all of the fasteners within 1 hour of applying the sealer.

NOTE: If the engine front cover has been removed, it is only necessary to apply sealant to the crankshaft rear seal retainer plate-to-cylinder block sealing surfaces.

Apply an 8 mm (0.31 in) bead of silicone gasket and sealant to the crankshaft rear seal retainer plate- to-cylinder block sealing surfaces and the engine front cover-to-cylinder block sealing surfaces. Material : Silicone Gasket and Sealant / TA-30 (WSE-M4G323-A4)
