    Torque Sequence

  1. Install the gaskets, O-ring seals, and the spacer plate on the engine.

  2. Attach Tooling (A) and a suitable lifting device to cylinder head (23). Attach Tooling (B) to the side of cylinder head (23) that is nearest the exhaust ports. The weight of cylinder head (23) is approximately 300 kg (661 lb). Repeat this step for the other side.

  3. Position cylinder head (23) on the dowel pins in the cylinder block.

    Note: Apply Tooling (C) to the bolt threads and both sides of the washers. Tighten the bolts in the following step sequence:

  4. Install ten bolts (26) and 16 bolts (25) according to the following procedure.

    1. In a numerical sequence, tighten Bolt (1) through Bolt (26) to a torque of 270 ± 15 N·m (199 ± 11 lb ft).

    2. In a numerical sequence, tighten Bolt (1) through Bolt (26) to a torque of 450 ± 15 N·m (332 ± 11 lb ft).

    3. In a numerical sequence, again tighten Bolt (1) through Bolt (26) to a torque of 450 ± 15 N·m (332 ± 11 lb ft).

      Note: Apply Tooling (C) to the bolt threads and both sides of the washers. Tighten the bolts in the following step sequence:

    4. Install bolts (24). In a numerical sequence, tighten Bolt (27) through Bolt (39) to a torque of 45 ± 7 N·m (33 ± 5 lb ft).
