CYLINDER HEAD GASKET INSTALLATION
(1) Select a cylinder head gasket of the correct thickness
according to the projecting height of the pistons. The
available cylinder head gaskets are shown in the table
below. The thickness of the gasket is indicated by the
number of holes near the en d of the gasket (see the
illustration). Measure the projecting height of the pistons
and calculate the average height. Then select a cylinder
head gasket of the correct thickness from the table shown
below.

pattern on the old gasket and select a gasket with the
same number of holes.

If a piston or connecting rod, etc. has been
replaced, always measure the projecting height
of the pistons because this may have changed
after replacing these parts.
