Engines are experiencing external oil leaks from the head joint. Leaks are due to inadequate gasket clamp load between the cylinder head and the block.Solution
The bolt torque procedure has been revised to increase the clamp load on the cylinder head gasket to prevent external oil leaks. Use the following procedure to tighten the cylinder head bolts.
