(See RG-17541-48B) INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS: Wash the cover and engine flange with solvent. The surfaces must be DRY—no oil or lube of any type. Remove all traces of oil from the rocker box covers. Install gasket DRY. TORQUE SPECIFICATIONS: Use lock washers or thread lock and TORQUE (one time): 20 to 25 INCH POUNDS ** DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN. ** Over tightening causes the gasket to bulge or squeeze out. ** If the gasket starts to bulge or "pooch" out when torquing - then you are over tightening the gasket. Back off on the torque. If the gasket splits or cracks at the bolt holes then you have over torqued the silicone material and ruined the gasket. You must follow the recommended torque listed on the package. Tighter is not better. It is okay to use Loctite on the bolts.** TO REUSE GASKET: Wash gasket BRIEFLY in hot water and soap. Rinse well and dry thoroughly. Re-install using the above installation instructions. PROUDLY MADE IN THE USA. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ USE CORK? GET REAL!
