twosmoke300 Posted March 20, 2017 Share Posted March 20, 2017 Tight enough so it doesn't leak or come loose but not so tight it strips the threads or breaks - hope this helps 😀 scaryoldcortina, Sigmund Fraud, The Moog and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steveo3002 Posted March 20, 2017 Author Share Posted March 20, 2017 apparently is crushes against the head so it might matter a bit more than good n tight Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spike60 Posted March 20, 2017 Share Posted March 20, 2017 23Nm for 16v, 10Nm for others. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alf892 Posted March 20, 2017 Share Posted March 20, 2017 23Nm for 16v, 10Nm for others.That doesn't look right.....10Nm is only just over 7lbs/ft....are the units right?Or are those base figures then remainder by degrees of rotation. I've got a data book but it only goes up to about 1986.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Hooli Posted March 20, 2017 Share Posted March 20, 2017 I'd just nip it up till it feels snug. But then what do I know? I fit bigends the same way and never had an issue on extensively trashed afterwards engines. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spike60 Posted March 21, 2017 Share Posted March 21, 2017 Figs from Autodata 2011 given in Nm only no mention of degrees or anything else.. From memory, it mentioned about 4 different 16v 1.6 engines all 23Nm, one 1.6 at 10Nm. 10 sounded low to me but probably a small brass, alloy or similar thread.
