Tightening Torques and Sequences

Cylinder Head Torque and Sequence

Tighten the cylinder head bolts in sequence to 29 N-m (3.0 kgf-m, 22 lbf-ft). Use a beam-type torque wrench. When using a preset click-type torque wrench, be sure to tighten slowly and do not overtighten. If a bolt makes any noise while you are torquing it, loosen the bolt and retighten it.

Tighten all cylinder head bolts in two steps (90 ° per step). If you are using a new cylinder head bolt, tighten the bolt an extra 90 °.

Tighten the 8 mm bolts (A) to 22 N-m (2.2 kgf-m, 16 lbf-ft).
