Installation Notes

To ensure a professional and leak-free installation of the VG1047110137 cover, please follow these technician-verified steps:

1. Mating Surface Inspection: Use a scraper to remove all traces of old gasket material from the engine block or housing. The surface must be clean and bright.

2. Check for Flatness: Before applying sealant or a gasket, place the new cover on the mounting surface without bolts to ensure there is no "rocking" or unevenness.

3. New Seal Recommended: Never reuse an old O-ring or gasket with a new cover. The compression set of old seals will not provide an adequate bond to the new casting.

4. Sequential Tightening: Install all bolts by hand first. Then, use a torque wrench to tighten them in a crisscross pattern. This prevents the cover from tilting and ensures even pressure on the gasket.

5. Wait for Cure Time: If using RTV silicone or liquid gasket, allow the specified curing time before starting the engine and subjecting the cover to operating pressure
