Title: Torque setting?
Post by: Rabbitoh on March 18, 2020, 03:37:11 PM
Tried my workshop manual and the ‘intra-web’ but can’t seem to find this figure anywhere.
Question;
What (if anything?) is specified for the 4 bolts joining the intake and exhaust manifolds together?
Thanks,

Not a torqued setting, just do it up tight.

Many thanks for clearing that up for me, Ken.

Tighten them up until they snap, then back them off half a turn  ;D

At least, that's what i did when I was a young bloke helping Dad rebuild a motor. Can't say he was overly impressed with me  ::).

Cheers,
