Removal Procedure

    CAUTION:: Always wear protective goggles and gloves when removing exhaust system parts as falling rust and sharp edges from worn exhaust components could result in serious personal injury.

    When removing exhaust components, the accumulation of dirt and corrosion can make work difficult. Using a penetrating oil on the threads can assist in the removal of these components.

Installation Procedure


    Object Number: 42808  Size: SH
  1. Install a new washer and a stop peg.
  2. Tighten
    Tighten the stop peg to 24 N·m (18 lb ft).

    Notice: Use the correct fastener in the correct location. Replacement fasteners must be the correct part number for that application. Fasteners requiring replacement or fasteners requiring the use of thread locking compound or sealant are identified in the service procedure. Do not use paints, lubricants, or corrosion inhibitors on fasteners or fastener joint surfaces unless specified. These coatings affect fastener torque and joint clamping force and may damage the fastener. Use the correct tightening sequence and specifications when installing fasteners in order to avoid damage to parts and systems.

  3. Check for proper adjustment of the actuator rod.
  4. Contact must be made with the stop peg when the butterfly valve is in the fully open or fully closed position.
