30 Oil the lip of the timing cover oil seal and
the contact surface of the crankshaft damper.
31 Fit the damper to the crankshaft, being
careful not to dislodge the Woodruff key. Draw
the damper into position using the retaining
bolt and washer.
32 Remove the bolt and apply sealant to the
faces of the washer. Refit the bolt and washer
then jam the starter gear ring teeth and tighten
the bolt to the specified torque.
33 Refit the crankshaft pulley and tighten the
retaining bolts to the specified torque.
34 Refit the crossmember side brackets and
brake pipes.
35 Reconnect the engine mountings and
remove the engine hoist or axle stands (see
“Jacking”). 36 Connect the steering shaft coupling with
the steering wheel and front roadwheels in the
straight-ahead position. Fit the pinch-bolt and
tighten it to the specified torque.
37 Fit the starter motor and connect the leads.
38 Bolt the coolant distributor pipe to the
timing cover.
39 Refit the alternator and power steering
pump drivebelts and tension them (see
illustrations).
40 Fit the fan and radiator, connect all coolant
hoses, and fit the radiator upper shroud.
41 Fit the air cleaner cover with attachments.
42 Fill the engine with oil and coolant and
connect the battery.

1 Clean the mating faces of the crankcase
and sump. Ensure that the grooves in the seal
carriers are clean.
2 Fit the rubber seals in the grooves.
3 Apply sealing compound on the crankcase
and slide the tabs of the gasket under the cut-
outs in the rubber seals (see illustration).
4 Ensure that the gasket hole lines up with the
holes in the gasket crankcase and fit the
sump. Take care not to dislodge the gasket.
5 Fit the 24 securing bolts. Tighten them in
the sequence shown to the Stage 1 specified
torque starting at point A (see illustration),
then to the Stage 2 torque starting at point B.
6 Fit the sump drain plug, using a new
washer, and tighten it to the specified torque.
7 If the engine is in the vehicle, reverse the
steps taken to gain access.

1 Lubricate the valve tappets with clean
engine oil and insert them in the cylinder
block. Ensure that they are fitted in their
original locations (see illustration).
2 Ensure that the mating faces of the cylinder
block and the cylinder heads are clean.
3 Position the new cylinder head gaskets over
the guide bushes on the cylinder block. Check
that they are correctly located. The right and
left-hand gaskets are different. The gaskets
are marked FRONT TOP (see illustration).
4 Carefully lower the cylinder heads onto the
cylinder block. Oil the threads and contact
faces of the cylinder head bolts and insert
them into their holes.
5 Tighten the cylinder head bolts, in the
correct order (see illustration), to the Stage 1
specified torque. Repeat in the same order for
Stages 2 and 3. Final tightening, when
required, is done after warm-up.
