- Carefully loosen and remove the cylinder head bolts in the sequence specified by the manufacturer's service manual.
- Lift the cylinder head off the engine block and remove the old gasket.
- Thoroughly clean both the cylinder block and head mating surfaces, removing all traces of old gasket material and carbon deposits.
- Position the new gasket correctly on the block, ensuring all passages align perfectly.
- Carefully place the cylinder head back onto the block and install the head bolts.
- Torque the head bolts to the manufacturer's specifications using a calibrated torque wrench, following the correct tightening pattern and stages.

Troubleshooting & FAQ
Is this gasket for the port or starboard side?
This is the port side (left-hand) gasket only. The starboard side gasket, part number 11141-98J10, must be purchased separately to service both cylinder banks.
Do I need to use sealant with this gasket?
No. This cylinder head gasket is designed to be installed dry. Applying additional sealants can interfere with its ability to seal properly and may lead to premature failure. Always follow the installation guidelines in your engine's service manual.
What are the common signs of a failed head gasket?
Symptoms of a blown head gasket can include engine overheating, a noticeable loss of power or compression, milky or discolored engine oil (coolant contamination), or white smoke coming from the exhaust. A cylinder compression test is a reliable method for diagnosis.
How often should a head gasket be replaced?
A head gasket is not a routine maintenance item and is typically replaced only when it fails or during a major engine overhaul. Its lifespan depends on operating conditions, maintenance, and preventing engine overheating.
