Notice: Maximum gasket performance is achieved when using new fasteners, which contain a thread-locking patch. If the fasteners are not replaced, a thread locking chemical must be applied to the fastener threads. Failure to replace the fasteners or apply a thread-locking chemical MAY reduce gasket sealing capability.
Notice: Failure to tighten vertical bolts before the diagonal bolts may cause an oil leak.
Apply sealer to the lower intake manifold bolt threads. Refer to Sealers, Adhesives, and Lubricants.
