For engines equipped with a paper gasket style oil pan, inspect the oil pan gasket for damage.
NOTE: If the engine is equipped with a suspended oil pan with a rubber oil pan gasket and the gasket is found to be
damaged, the oil pan must be removed and the entire oil pan gasket replaced. Refer to Refer to Procedure
Procedure 007-025. If the engine used sealant only between the gear housing and the oil pan, remove the old
sealant and apply new sealant, Part Number 3164070, to the oil pan mounting flange.
If the pan gasket is torn, it can be repaired.
Cut the torn gasket off even with the front of the cylinder block.
Using the old gasket as a pattern, cut the front section of a new gasket to the same size.
Clean the sealing surfaces.
Coat the new gasket on both sides with sealant, Part Number 3164067.
Be sure there is a bead of sealant at the intersecting joint of the cylinder block, oil pan, and gear housing.
Use common thread or very fine wire to hold the new gasket splice in position as illustrated.
Check the fit of the new gear housing to cylinder block gasket. It may be necessary to trim the bottom edges of
the gasket before installation.
NOTE: When properly trimmed, the gear housing gasket must be even with the lubricating oil pan gasket when
installed.
Position the gasket on the alignment dowels.
Use guide pins, M8 x 1.25 x 50, to assist in aligning the gasket and gear housing. Make sure to remove the guide
pins after alignment.
Apply a bead of sealant, Part Number 3164067, at the intersecting joint of the cylinder block, oil pan, and gear
housing.
Carefully install the gear housing.
Make sure the gasket is still in place.
NOTE: Locations numbered 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 in the illustration use internal torx fasteners. Make sure to install
the correct fasteners in the correct location.
Install and tighten the mounting capscrews in the sequence illustrated.
Torque Value: 24 N•m [ 18 ft-lb]
Start the oil pan capscrews into the holes not being used to tie the gasket in place.
Remove the thread or wire holding the gasket in place.
Install the remaining two capscrews.
Tighten the capscrews.
