clay Posted October 6, 2012 Report Share Posted October 6, 2012 If it was me Bondy, i would tighten them up to half of the required torque, But in the correct SEQUENCE. Then fully torque them up, Ride a heat cycle through it, let it fully cool, then re,check, and re,torque if needed (just my two pence worth) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bondy Posted October 6, 2012 Author Report Share Posted October 6, 2012 sounds good to me i was going to tighten them in 2nm at a time as you said in sequence. where do you go trailing? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
