AXCAUTION A
Make sure the gasket is correctly aligned with the holes in the
cylinder block. Damage to the cylinder block can occur if the
gasket is not aligned correctly.
Note : Ifa piston, crankshaft, connecting rod , or block
replacement has been performed, the cylinder head gasket
may require that it be graded. Refer to Procedure 002-021 in
Section 2. (/qs3/pubsys2/xml/en/procedures/44/44-002-021-
