Replacement of a lining of a head of the block of cylinders the hands

The cylinder head gasket is a flat rubber-metal element that performs the function of sealing the engine parts. This part is located in the place of connection between the head and the unit. In fact, this element is connected directly with three systems - oil, gas distribution and cooling system. Therefore, despite its simple design, it is indispensable in the device ICE, and its lack or inoperability lead to disruption of all three systems, which in the end can lead to complete failure of the engine. That is why it is so important to do timely diagnostics and replacement of the gasket. If at the connection points of the unit you detect oil stains or see white smoke from the exhaust pipe, you should know: the car needs to replace the cylinder head gasket . How to do it - later in this article.

To begin with, we need to prepare a small marker in order to further mark all the removed attachments and aggregates. Putting labels on pipelines and other details, you are 100 percent sure that a particular part will be installed in the right place.

Before you begin to replace the gasket, you should thoroughly rinse the unit from oily deposits. If the key comes off the slot, you can stay with bruises and without normal bolts. First, unscrew the nuts in the middle of the tool. Scroll the threads of each half a turn. After that, the replacement of the cylinder head gasket is accompanied by the removal of the head from the fasteners. Now we see a gasket (how much it can be worn out, you can see on the second photo).

If there are obvious holes and cracks on the part (not factory ones), you should immediately replace this part. There is no need to untwist any nuts here: access to it is open to you. After removing it, replacing the cylinder head gasket is followed by elimination of oil marks formed on its surface. Then you can easily install a new part. Everything, at this stage, replacement of the cylinder head gasket is completed. Now it only remains to collect all the details back. Time for this you will spend a little if all the components have been pre-marked.

When reinstalling attachments, remember several rules. First - the head is installed strictly on bushings or special grooves for alignment. Second - the tightening of the mounting nuts of the unit should be carried out using a torque wrench. Characteristics and the degree of clamping of bolts for all cars are different, so here we ask for help to the instruction manual.

And finally, advice on what to consider when buying parts. When you purchase a new gasket in a car dealer or on the market, pay attention to the fact that each part has its own properties, calculated for a certain torque. Therefore, in order for the part to last as long as possible, choose the parts corresponding to the parameters of your car. Otherwise, operation may cause the machine to replace the cylinder head. But this, fortunately, happens very rarely, since none of the drivers consciously will not harm their iron friend.
