# REAR CAM COVER OIL LEAK IMPROVED SEAL AND COVER

#### MODELS: 1983-1984 S/T TRUCK WITH L02 (VIN CODE Y) 2.0L L4 ENGINE

1983-84 S/T trucks that are equipped with the 2.0L L4 engine were assembled with a rear camshaft cover that used RTV sealant. A new improved cover and seal have been released to replace the production parts.

The sealing surface must be cleaned, and the main oil gallery plugs should be flush with the block before the cover and gasket are installed. Torque bolts to 8-14 N.m (6-10 lb. ft.)

General Motors bulletins are intended for use by professional technicians, not a "do-it-yourselfer". They are written to inform those technicians of conditions that may occur on some vehicles, or to provide information that could assist in the proper service of a vehicle. Properly trained technicians have the equipment, tools, safety instructions and know-how to do a job properly and safely. If a condition is described, do not assume that the bulletin applies to your vehicle, or that your vehicle will have that condition. See a General Motors dealer servicing your brand of General Motors vehicle for information on whether your vehicle may benefit from the information.
