Engine Mechanical: Specifications Nissan Maxima A34

Parts Requiring Angular Tightening

1. Use an angle wrench for the final tightening of the following engine parts: Cylinder head bolts Main bearing cap bolts Connecting rod cap nuts Crankshaft pulley bolt (No angle wrench is required as the bolt flange is provided with notches for angular tightening)
2. Do not use a torque value for final tightening.
3. The torque value for these parts are for a preliminary step.
4. Ensure thread and seat surfaces are clean and coated with engine oil.

Scheme 1

1. After removing the mounting bolts and nuts, separate the mating surface using Tool and remove the liquid gasket sealing. Tool number: KV10111100 (J37228) CAUTION: Be careful not to damage the mating surfaces.
2. In areas where the cutter is difficult to use, use a plastic hammer to lightly tap (1) the cutter where the Silicone RTV Sealant is applied. Use a plastic hammer to slide the cutter (2) by tapping on the side.

Scheme 4

1. Using a scraper, remove the old Silicone RTV Sealant adhering to the gasket application surface and the mating surface. Remove the sealant completely from the groove of the gasket application surface, mounting bolts, and bolt holes.
2. Thoroughly clean the gasket application surface and the mating surface and remove adhering moisture, grease and foreign materials.
3. Attach the sealant tube to the tube presser. Use Genuine Silicone RTV Sealant or equivalent. Refer to «RECOMMENDED CHEMICAL PRODUCTS AND SEALANTS»(ref-233642-S07555866002006052600000).
4. Apply the sealant using Tool without breaks to the specified location. Tool number: WS 3993 0000 (-) If there is a groove for the sealant application, apply the sealant to the groove. As for the bolt holes, normally apply the sealant inside the holes. If specified, it should be applied outside the holes. Make sure to read the text of this manual. Within five minutes of the sealant application, install the mating component. If the sealant protrudes, wipe it off immediately. Do not retighten after the installation. After 30 minutes or more have passed from the installation, fill the engine with the specified oil and coolant. Refer to «RECOMMENDED FLUIDS AND LUBRICANTS»(ref-233644-S09981660282006052600000).
