For installation, a new gasket is to be placed in the groove and new seal washers are to be put on bolts. Fit the cover and tighten the bolts to the prescribed torque in equal incremental stages in correct torque pattern. Refit the other parts as necessary, reconnect the battery and start the engine-observe for oil leakage.
