Title: Torque setting
Post by: Kieran on 08 February 2010, 09:42:43

Getting a ticking noise from the engine and i am thinking the problem could be a leaky manifold. Since i am doing some work on the car this weekend i would like to torque up the bolts on the manifold to try and cure the leak. Does anyone know the correct torque settings please.
Cheers
Kieran

25 in my memory - although personal experience suggests a little tighter than this is better...
