Too much sealant applied to the stiffener plate can drip into the lubrication pan assembly. This excess sealant can become lodged in the oil suction tube screen and cause engine damage.
Install four evenly spaced (1 and 2) 10 cm [4 in] long guide pins in the block oil pan capscrew holes.
These guide pins aid in the stiffener plate and oil pan assembly.
