SONAL INJURY, HANDLE WITH CARE.
(3) Disconnect coil wires, sending unit wire, heater
hoses and bypass hose.
(4) Remove PCV system hoses, evaporation control
system hose and cylinder head covers.
(5) Remove exhaust manifolds.
(6) Remove rocker arm and shaft assemblies.
Remove push rods andmark positions to ensure
installation in original locations.
(7) Remove the 9 head bolts from each cylinder
head and remove cylinder heads (Fig. 33).
INSTALLATION
(1) Clean all sealing surfaces of cylinder block and
cylinder heads.
(2) Install new gaskets on cylinder block (Fig. 34).
(3)The cylinder head bolts are torqued using
the torque yield method, they should be exam-
ined BEFORE reuse. If the threads are necked
down, the bolts should be replaced(Fig. 35).
(4) Necking can be checked by holding a scale or
straight edge against the threads. If all the threads
do not contact the scale the bolt should be replaced.
(5) Tighten the cylinder head bolts1-8inthe
sequence shown in (Fig. 33). Using the 4 step torque
turn method, tighten according to the following val-
ues:
²Step 1: Bolts1±8to61N´m(45ft.lbs.)
²Step 2: Bolts1±8to88N´m(65ft.lbs.)
²Step 3: Bolts1±8(again) to 88 N´m (65 ft. lbs.)
²Step 4: Bolts1±8turn an additional 1/4 Turn.
(Do not use a torque wrench for this step.)
NOTE: Bolt torque after 1/4 turn should be over 122
N´m (90 ft. lbs.). If not, replace the bolt.
(6) Tighten head bolt number 9 (Fig. 33) to 33 N´m
(25 ft. lbs.) after head bolts1±8have been tighten
to specifications.
