Refitting
Fit a new cylinder head gasket in position.
The cylinder head gasket is ASTADUR type.
The material from which the gasket is made undergoes a polymerization process during the operation of the engine so that it becomes considerably harder during usage.
In order for the polymerization process to take place, it is necessary to:
- keep the gasket sealed in its casing until it is fitted;
- not lubricate the gasket or the contact surfaces with oil.
Position the cylinder head on the cylinder block/crankcase taking care to ensure that the camshafts are positioned with the front cams facing outwards (valves closed).
Do not reuse the cylinder head bolts more than four times because they undergo permanent lengthening whenever they are tightened. Replace the bolts if the number of times that the bolts have been tightenened to the cylinder head is unknown.
