Metal Head Gasket Torque Figs?
« on: April 20, 2007, 06:53:08 am »
When installing the 1.9 metal head gasket

  on a 1.6 TD, do I use the same torque

  figures as for the normal head gasket?

  Or are the torque numbers/proceedure

  different?

  Any information greatly appreciated.

hi..

-normally- the procedure is: 30nm, 60nm, 2x90° -> thats all
otherwise contact the gaskets manufacturer for instrucktions, if not delivered with the gasket.

Thank you for the information.

  Someone, on another forum, was

  puzzling over this. So, I thought I'd

  ask those who have done this upgrade.

  Thanks again.
