4- Piston Jet Installation
a-
Apply a thin film of clean engine oil to new O-ring.
b- Seat O-ring in groove of piston jet mounting flange.
c-
With pinhole in the jet pointing upward, install using
two T20 TORX screws. Apply Loctite
®
243 Blue, then
tighten to 20-30 in-lbs.
Piston jets must be installed using the correct o-ring. Leaving
out a piston jet o-ring, installing too small of an o-ring, or
pinching an o-ring at assembly will cause oil to by-pass the
jet, resulting in low oil pressure.
NOTE:
Always use a new o-rings when re-installing jets.
