I believe it is 45 ftlbs + 90 degrees. Please double check this there have been some changes. This is what I just did on an Aero with leaking head gasket. Fixed about 95% of the problem. New Bolts, etc. I have to recheck because it just started leaking just a bit. I did not do the 2nd stage as noted below. Just put in some UV and will see where the small leak really is. In any case, would really recommend getting a new set of bolts for $30-$50.....Any other other comments?
First stage 44.3 ft lbs
Second stage 59.0 ft lbs
Third stage tighten an additional 90 degrees torque
Here is another ------------------
torque settings stages:
1) 60Nm
2) 80Nm
3) 90deg turn
try and loosen to just below 1) and you can start from there.
Looking at the engine with the cam chain to the left, this is the order:
8 4 1 5 9
7 3 2 6 10
