14. Unscrew the cylinder head mounting bolts and remove it together with the gasket.

Checking the cylinder head deformation



15. Using a straightedge and a set of feeler gauges, check for deformation of the contact surface of the cylinder head. Maximum permissible deformation: 0.05 mm.

Attention! Grinding of the cylinder head is not permitted.


16. Check the cylinder head for possible cracks using a cylinder head leak tester (consisting of a container, a set corresponding to the cylinder head, a plug, a sealing plate, a plug).

Installation



17. Install the cylinder head gasket. The gasket is centered by two forks. Set the pistons to mid-stroke to prevent the pistons from touching the valves when tightening the head bolts. Center the cylinder head on the mounting bushings. Apply oil to the threads and underside of the head bolts. Tighten the cylinder head mounting bolts using an angle wrench.

18. Further installation is carried out in the reverse order of removal.
