Cylinder Head

CYLINDER HEAD BOLT TORQUE/SEQUENCE





Tighten the cylinder head bolts 1-8 in the sequence shown in (Fig. 20). Using the 4 step torque turn method, tighten according to the following values:
- Step 1: Bolts 1 - 8 to 61 Nm (45 ft. lbs.)
- Step 2: Bolts 1 - 8 to 88 Nm (65 ft. lbs.)
- Step 3: Bolts 1 - 8 (again) to 88 Nm (65 ft. lbs.)
- Step 4: Bolts 1 - 8 turn an additional 1/4 Turn. (Do not use a torque wrench for this step.)

NOTE: Bolt torque after 1/4 turn should be over 122 Nm (90 ft. lbs.). If not, replace the bolt.
