 CAUTION 

Immediately upon removal of the flywheel housing assembly, a plug must be inserted into the cylinder block oil passage drillings. Failure to insert the oil passage plug can result in a bearing failure, crankshaft failure, or both.

The reusable plug, Part Number 4918321, is included in Protective Plug Kit, Part Number 4918319. This plug is necessary to prevent debris from entering the lubrication system during the repair.

Plug the block oil passage with plug Part Number 4918321.

Firmly push plug into oil passage to prevent all debris from entering the lubricating system when cleaning the gasket surface.
