Cylinder Head

When installing a replacement cylinder head, all of the contact surfaces between the supports, roller rocker levers and cam running surfaces on the camshaft must be lubricated before installing the cylinder head cover.

Only remove the plastic protectors installed to protect the open valves immediately before fitting the cylinder head.

Replace the cylinder head bolts.

When replacing the cylinder head or cylinder head gasket, the coolant must be completely replaced.
