Cylinder Head Tightening Procedures





Tighten the cylinder head bolts sequentially in 3 steps. Perform each step twice.
- 1st step torque: 39 Nm (4.0 kgf-m, 29 ft. lbs.)
- 2nd step torque: 69 Nm (7.0 kgf-m, 51 ft. lbs.)
- 3rd step torque: 98.1 Nm (10.0 kgf-m, 72.3 ft. lbs.)
- Use a beam-type torque wrench. When using a preset-type torque wrench, be sure to tighten slowly and not to overtighten. If a bolt makes any noise while you are torquing it, loosen the bolt, and retighten it from the 1st step.
