Cylinder Head Installation Caution For
1992-95 Honda 1.6L D16DZ Engines
The AERA Technical Committee offers the following information regarding a cylinder head installation caution for 1992-95 Honda 1.6L D16DZ engines. This caution is expressed for engines that have had either machining of the block or head surfaces. It has been reported that interference between the intake manifold and the cylinder block may prevent the head from properly clamping the block.
In many instances, the intake manifold is attached to the cylinder head before that assembly is installed onto the block. If that is attempted, the intake manifold may contact the block in three areas while the head is tightened down. The areas are one at each end and one in the middle portion of the intake manifold and the interference may not occur until the head gasket is compressed.
Depending upon the amount of interference, the engine may start up and seem to run normally until the engine warms up completely. If the interference is excessive, coolant will flow out between the head and block when the cooling system is being filled. To repair this condition shops have used a portable grinder to remove manifold material until the additional clearance required is obtained.
