17. Remove and discard the cylinder head bolts.



18. Remove the cylinder head and gasket.
19. Clan the following items:

•	The cylinder head. carefully remove all varnish, soot and carbon to the bare metal. Do not use a motorized wire brush on any gasket sealing surfaces.

•	The cylinder block bolt threads

1. Place the gasket in position over the dowel pins, with the note "this side up" showing.



2. Install the cylinder head.

Notice: This component uses torque-to-yield bolts. When servicing this component do not reuse the bolts, New torque-to-yield bolts must be installed. Reusing used torque-to-yield bolts will not provide proper bolt torque and clamp load. Failure to install NEW torque-to-yield bolts may lead to engine damage.

Notice: Use the correct fastener in the correct location. Replacement fasteners must be the correct part number for that application. Fasteners requiring replacement or fasteners requiring the use of thread locking compound or sealant are identified in the service procedure. Do not use paints, lubricants, or corrosion inhibitors on fasteners or fastener joint surfaces unless specified. These coatings affect fastener torque and joint clamping force and may damage the fastener. Use the correct tightening sequence and specifications when installing fasteners in order to avoid damage to parts and systems.

3. Install the NEW cylinder head bolts.

Tighten
Tighten the bolts to 60 N·m (44 lb ft) plus an additional 95 degrees using a J 36660-A .

4. Install the compressor brackets. Refer to Heater, Ventilation and Air Conditioning.
5. Install the A/C compressor upper bracket bolts. Refer to Heater, Ventilation and Air Conditioning.
6. Raise and support the vehicle. Refer to vehicle support in General Information.
7. Install the A/C compressor lower bracket bolts. Refer to Heater, Ventilation and Air Conditioning.
8. Install the wiring harness connector from the rear of the compressor. Refer to Heater, Ventilation and Air Conditioning.
9. Install the A/C compressor
10. Install the A/C lines to the rear of he compressor with new sealing washers. Refer to Heater, Ventilation and Air Conditioning.
11. Install the compressor top bolts. Refer to Heater, Ventilation and Air Conditioning.
12. Install the oil level indicator and fill tube. Refer to Oil Level Indicator and Tube Replacement .
13. Install the pushrods. Valve Rocker Arm and Push Rod Replacement .
14. Install the rocker arms. Valve Rocker Arm and Push Rod Replacement .
15. Install the rocker arm covers. Valve Rocker Arm Cover Replacement .
16. Install the spark plug wires to the spark plugs. Refer to Spark Plug Wire in Ignition System.
17. Install the crossover pipe. Refer to Crossover Pipe in Exhaust System.
18. Lower the intake manifold. Refer to Lower Intake Manifold Replacement .
19. Evacuate and charge the A/C system. Refer to Heater, Ventilation and Air Conditioning.

Important: It is recommended that the engine oil be drained and the crankcase refilled with clean engine oil to avoid possible contamination by the engine coolant and/or foreign material when removing the cylinder head.

20. Leak test the A/C system. Refer to Heater, Ventilation and Air Conditioning.
21. Inspect for proper fluid levels and leaks.
