4. Set the specified engine crankshaft speed and record the pressure gauge readings.
Note: Oil pressure may vary depending on oil viscosity and temperature.
- Oil pressure at 2100 rpm - 410 - 570 kPa (4.19-5.81 kg/cm²)
5. If the pressure does not correspond to the specified one, check the oil pump and oil filter, repair if necessary.
6. Stop the engine and wait until it cools down.
7. Remove the pressure gauge.
8. Apply silicone sealant to the sensor threads as shown in the figure.
Note:
- The parts must be installed within the time specified in the sealant's instructions for use, otherwise the sealant must be removed and reapplied.
- Make sure that no sealant gets on the end of the pressure sensor.
9. Install the oil pressure sensor.
- Tightening torque: 12-17 Nm
10. Start the engine and check for oil leaks.
