Inspect for two head gasket tabs on the driver’s side front of the engine (as shown) or on
the passenger’s side rear of the engine. A bore scope or inspection mirror may be used
between the power steering pump bracket and engine. Inspecting the passenger’s side
head gasket tab(s) can be made easier from underneath with the vehicle on a lift and a
bore scope.
⇒ If two head gaskets on one bank of the engine is confirmed, during removal,
please try to keep the two gaskets together as an assembly. DO NOT try to
separate them. Engineering would like these kept together for analysis.
Install a new head gasket with the same grade that was removed.
Service Procedure
Note: Prior to installing the rocker arm shaft, loosen all
rocker arm adjustment nuts AND unscrew the adjuster.
This will help prevent piston to valve contact and
potential damage to the pushrods.
Replace the affected cylinder head gasket with the
same grade that was removed. Refer to Cylinder Head
Replacement – Left Side or Cylinder Head
Replacement – Right Side in SI.
