Is the torque the same for turbo & non turbo rod bolts? My book is old and doesn't cover that.
Looking at it right now.
Connecting rod cap to connecting rod...30Nm (22ft.lb.) +1/4 turn (90deg.)
Does not say for either diesel or TD or gas. Straight from the Bentley.
sorry for the big picture, but this is what I set them to...33ft/lbs. I think they have some that are a stretch bolt and some not, so it would depend on which ones you have. Look at the bottom page and you'll see connecting rod to cap spec.
it won't do the other two pages so here is the link.

Going with the 33 ft/lb. Hope she don't blow. Thanks
A question about piston to wall clearance. It says .001". That's pretty tight. I find it hard to believe that things are held to that tight of tolerance in a production enviornment. What's the real tolerance and how would you ever know if it was knocking?
