stef123 Posted February 28, 2013 Share Posted February 28, 2013 Hi Ian, I totally forgot about this Ok, so what i have in front of me doesnt state the order but its usually from the inside working out stage 1 - 5Nm stage 2 - 15Nm stage 3 - 45Nm stage 4 - angle tighten a further 90 degrees stage 5 - angle tighten a further 90 degrees You will also need new bolts (the old ones will be stretched) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ian dean Posted March 1, 2013 Author Share Posted March 1, 2013 hi sorry about all the questions i was just wondering is it possible to remove the crankshaft and drop the pistobs out the bottom of the block or could i just undo thr pistons from the shaft and take them out through the top many thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stef123 Posted March 2, 2013 Share Posted March 2, 2013 The pistons should be removed/fitted from the top. So I wouldn't remove the crankshaft Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
