DanielC Posted May 15, 2014 Report Share Posted May 15, 2014 On a cold engine, break each head bolt loose one at a time. Then torque to the factory spec. 1 Quote Link to comment
datzenmike Posted May 15, 2014 Report Share Posted May 15, 2014 This above!!! At any one time never have more than one bolt loose. You can do them in any order you like but only one at a time. 1 Quote Link to comment
ggzilla Posted May 15, 2014 Report Share Posted May 15, 2014 Do not torque more than spec. That's how bolts get stretched and lose their holding power. 1 Quote Link to comment
