I removed a head recently to repair an oil return tube and one of the headbolts came out completely. I cant find any reference in the maintenance manual relating to replacement process. Can someone point me in the right direction please. Attached picture shows the bolt. Thanks

    Excerpt from the HMM Section 72-00-00, Chapter 3.16.4, Page 92.

    "...Tighten to 10 Nm (90 in.lb) and then in addition tighten further by applying a 120° rotation ..."

     

    You will need to loosen BOTH Heads and use the cylinder alignment tool and perform the 8-Bolt tightening sequence. 

    This is Not a Plug and Play Procedure.

    Yep headbolt, there is white paste on the middle of the bolt which I guess is anti seize but there is no reference to that in the manual (that I could find), what is the process there? Only the head removed not the cylinder. I've read page 92 but my issue is putting the whole bolt back in, I haven't had a bolt come out like that before and this is the bit I can't find a reference for. Thanks

    in fact,the part is called ' STUD ' in the Parts manual

     

    an old Part manual that I have prescribe a torque of 3 Nm ( 26 in.lb )

    see parts # 27 & 28 on attached drawing

     

    although, the shorter stud [ part # 6 o   drawing ) is prescrib a torque of 8 Nm (70 in lb)

     

    the actual IPC  (parts catalog ) doesn't show the torque.. I think it is in the Overhaul Manual

    in fact, it is in my old one...
