Removal and installation of the cylinder head covers

1. Relieve the pressure in the supply system (see chap. The power supply system and release).
2. Disconnect the negative wire from the battery.

If installed on the car stereo is equipped with a security code before to disconnect the battery make sure that have a correct combination for audiosystem input in action!

3. Mark and disconnect spark plug wires.
4. Remove the ignition distributor (see chap. Electric motor).
5. Remove the upper section of the inlet pipeline (pressure chamber) (see. Section Removal and installation of the inlet pipeline).
6. Release and slide the mounting clamp, then remove the cylinder head cover breather hose (pipe breather).
7. Disconnect all other hoses and harnesses that prevent removal of the lid.

8. Turn out fixing bolts and remove the installed washers under their heads.

9. Remove the cylinder head cover.

If the cover is "become attached" and can not be separate from the cylinder head, gently Tap the its perimeter with a hammer through a wooden block. In particularly difficult cases, a layer of dried sealant putty can be cut with a knife - in any case, try to pry the lid lever institutions under its mating surface, as damage to the latter can lead to leaks.

1. The mating surface of the cylinder heads and lids have to be absolutely clean and dry. Use the scraper to remove all traces of old sealant and fragments of shattered gaskets, then wipe the surface with a cloth soaked in acetone. Presence on the mating surfaces of traces of oil can lead to leaks.
2. If necessary, banish a carving of fixing bolts suitable Lerke restoring damaged coils and removing rust and traces of the old sealant. Taps Run the appropriate size screw holes in the head.
3. Fill in the groove on the mating surface of the cover sealant RTV, then lay on top of a new hermetic seal. Allow the sealant to dry a little and thereby fix the gasket on the cover.
4. Gently push the cover to the cylinder head and screw the mounting bolts.
5. In three or four stages tighten bolts with demanded effort.
6. Further assembly is carried out in the reverse order of dismantle of components.
7. Start the engine and check for any signs of leaks.
