Inner Door Removal Procedure (cont’d)
Step 7. Inspect both inner doors for any of the following imperfections: tears,
missing material, cracks, dirt or debris, lack of adhesion to the inner door, material left
on combustion chamber, or any other imperfections that will inhibit a proper seal.
If any of the imperfections above are present, replace the inner door gasket following
the Inner Door Gasket Replacement Procedure. If not, replacement of the inner door
gaskets is not necessary.
Inner Door Gasket Replacement Procedure
Step 1. Completely remove all gasket and adhesive residue from the right and
left side inner doors, as needed.
Step 2. Using RTV sealant, apply a 1/8” bead to secure
the inner door gasket to the inner door sections. Refer to the
illustration for proper application. Note the overlap
configuration in the flange area of the inner door. Set the
flange section first, and this will help to achieve the proper
overlap position.
