IMPORTANT
During reassembly, apply high-temperature, anti-seize lubricant to
the threads of the igniter and grounding screw. Also, ensure that the
igniter are properly positioned and are not contacting other
components. Torque the igniter to 15 ft-lbs.
18. Beginning with the exhaust manifold assembly removed in Step 14, reinstall all the
components in the reverse order that they were removed.
--WARNING! -
The manifold-to-heat exchanger gasket must be held in place with
High Temp RTV Silicone sealant. The exhaust manifold must be
carefully raised into place, centered, and leveled to insure the
gasket makes a good seal between the manifold and heat
exchanger.
19. Reinstall the exhaust vent onto the exhaust manifold using a High Temp Red RTV silicon
sealant, such as sealants available from Permatex or Loctite.
