CLEANING
Remove the threaded plugs in the lubricating pipes to
clean the cylinder block.
It is very important not to scratch the mating faces
of any aluminium components.
Use the Décapjoint product to dissolve any part of the
gasket which remains attached.
Apply the product to the parts to be cleaned; wait
about ten minutes, then remove it using a wooden
spatula.
Wear gloves whilst carrying out this operation.
Do not allow this agent to drip on to the paintwork.
Your attention is drawn to the care which must be
taken when carrying out his operation to prevent
the introduction of foreign bodies into the
pressurized oil feed pipes leading to the camshafts
(pipes located both in the cylinder block and in the
cylinder head).
Failure to follow to this advice could lead to
blocking of the filter in the rocker arm rails or the
jets and thus quickly cause damage to the cams
and tappets.
