29. Cylinder
head
NOTE
Make a final visual check of the compression gaskets and seals
to ensure that they are in place before the cylinder head is
lowered. This is a very impor- tant check. Gaskets and seals
which are not seated properly will cause leaks and "blow-by" and
result in poor engine performance and damage to the engine.
1. Apply a small amount of
International compound
No. 2, or equivalent,
to the threads and under-
side of the head of all
cylinder head attaching
bolts (1).
2. Wipe the bottom of the
cylinder head clean.
Then lower the head
over the guide studs.
3. Then install a bolt
through each piloting
sleeve at the corners
of the head and thread
them finger tight into
the cylinder block.
Continue to tighten
these bolts (finger
tight) as the head is
lowered into position
on the cyliUnder block.
NOTE
Cylinder head bolts are especially designed for this purpose and
must not be replaced by ordinary bolts.
