Put clean engine oil on the threads of the cylinder head bolts. Install the bolts and tighten the bolts in the numerical sequence to the following torque - 118 ± 5 N·m (87 ± 4 lb ft)

Use a straightedge and a feeler gauge to check the cylinder head for warpage.
Flatness of the cylinder head over total span ... 0.05 mm (0.002 inch)
Resurface the cylinder head if the warpage exceeds the following amount. ... 0.20 mm (0.008 inch)
Gasket thickness of cylinder head ... 1.20 ± 0.05 mm (0.050 ± 0.002 inch)
Thickness of new head ... 85.00 ± 0.10 mm (3.347 ± 0.004 inch)
Minimum thickness of cylinder head ... 84.70 mm (3.335 inch)
Note: The repair limit of the contact surface of the gasket and the repair limit of the cylinder block surface is 0.20 mm (0.008 inch) when both surfaces are machined.
